Ann: Update - Dividend/Distribution - TLS, page-25

Your ignorance is on display for all to see.

Lets break this down to make it simple for you to understand.
- Person works and saves money, ie; exchanges labour for reward
- Person saves some of said money AFTER paying tax
- Person exchanges said money (ie; the money they saved AFTER paying tax) for a part ownership in a company, ie; SHARES to get an income
- Company person part owns earns money and pays tax, then distributes a portion of that to the owners of the shares AFTER PAYING TAX
- This comes attached with a credit FOR THE TAX THAT HAS BEEN PAID ALREADY
- Person personal tax rate is nill as they are retired, ie; have paid an entire lifetime of tax and no longer exchange labour for reward

Now where in this equation has this person either A: Not paid their tax OR B: "hidden income" or "abused a loophole"?

Give a factual answer to those questions and I might listen, until then stop being a lazy wasteful slob and then being jealous because the person next to you who has had a few less beers, a few less holidays, driven older cars, worn their jocks a few extra times before throwing out, etc, has some extra dollars in their retirement.

Why exactly should it be up to anyone to pay for the unprepared when someone has saved more money for their entire working lifetime?
Why is that person who has saved any less entitled to that money to perhaps enjoy a higher standard of living in old age when in fact they had to put up with a lower one when they were younger?
The people who don't save and sacrifice have ALREADY HAD A HIGHER STANDARD OF LIVING!

It's a truly disgusting attack on people who have spent a lifetime working and being asked to be responsible for those that haven't.
