European States Counseled to have Men Pay More Taxes than Women

As a young white male I feel completely discriminated by this sick feminist society.

And I feel totally impotent because as you can see 44% of people support this insanity.

44% That means many men support this discrimination.

Good for you European and Western men, good for you.

You deserve to go extinct you are a bunch of self-hating cunts.

Seriously, you people have a disease of the mind, if there is a war counts on me to help your enemies whoever they might be.

I think this is brilliant.

Think about it. The more incentives put in place to turn women into primary wage earners the more men will forced not to be primary wage earners.

This proposal will have zero affect on my household income while all those SAHMs will see a 5% contraction.

In a few decades maybe it'll be a 20% tax, or a 50% or, hell a 90% tax. Tax men so much they'll never be able to support a family. Make it so no woman can ever live off a man and they have to go out to work!

I'm sure women would love that. Amirite?

Well, men already pay more taxes than women, and most of those taxes go to benefiting women.

By the way, your equation is wrong. You need to swap xx and xy. Currently your equation suggests that men will pay less than women.

And then to say that xx>xy is a bit confusing, because, once your equations are corrected, xy>xx, if xy is the tax men pay and xx is the tax women pay.

o dear fsm, read the excerpt / justifiblication.

The implicit tax on the gross income of a second earner tops 70 percent when including social security contribution, benefits loss, and the cost of child care in Austria, France, Ireland, and the Slovak Republic.

so child care is a tax?

everyone's gotta eat, so all food is taxation, too then, right?

Next up is subsidizing people for their genetics. Freedom is failing.

This will never happen.

This could easily be made not sexist if you say that second earners get a tax break. Why they didn't word it that way I wouldn't know...

Fuckin' Europeans. Given the longevity gap, it's a given if any gender is to pay more taxes it should be women.

I think women should pay more sales tax.

Ok, before everyone goes crazy, can anyone clarify if this is meant to apply to all women, or just married women earning less than their spouses. The title and webpage seems to imply the former (hence the outrage). From the actual document, it is under the section "attracting second earners to the workforce" and appears to be just targeting spouses that are earning significantly less than their partners. The problem is that they use "second earners" and "women" interchangeably. Which is offensive in itself assuming that women are always the lower earners or men can't be the stay-at-home spouse. To fix this they should just keep the gender neutral "second earners". Which is what they imply by the first solution, of just letting spouses file taxes independently (therefore letting the lower earner file under a lower tax rate commiserate with their income). Due to this, what I gather their intent is not to give all women a tax break as the title implies just those married with income lower than their spouse. Either way it is very unclear, and poorly written and needs a gender neutral definition of "second earners" which is the intent of this section, and even with all that I can't even see the point of the idea. It's just more money for the family anyways, so why not just give everyone a tax break. I'm not sure how this will encourage more "second earners" to enter the workforce.

Ah yes, a recommendation by the IMF.

(plonk)

Instead of extending discrimination, we should be getting rid of it. Women's pay is (on average) still ridiculously low in comparison to men's, this makes me ashamed. Equal pay for equal work. (edit: spelling)
