I see so much nuance in the phrase “paid in federal income taxes”. Like if someone had a $100,000 tax bill and then made $100,000 in charitable donations would their taxes also = $0? Are they a bad person by the same logic? Taxes are complicated.

@mattcampux WUT! You mean politicians lied and didn’t follow through with doing what they said they were going to do?

@mattcampux Yea be mad at that. I’m not sure how you go about with meaningful, fair tax reform (because of money and power and all that).

@MikeWhoMikeLee Sure, and that should be prosecuted because it’s illegal. But if someone owes $1M in taxes and makes $1M in charitable donations to cancel that out would they be a bad person for owing $0 in taxes?

Wasn’t technology supposed to make things better?

Studio 24 ultimately determined that working with a CMS to make it better was more possible with a smaller, proprietary vendor than with a large open-source project. Project leadership would be more receptive, and the smaller community means changes can be made more quickly.
