Income Taxes Don't Disincentivize Work

Undisciplined


This post presents a thought-provoking view on the relationship between taxes, work, and leisure.
It highlights how income taxes can affect people's choices about working and their free time.
The idea that leisure is a "normal good" is interesting because it suggests that as people earn more, they may prefer to enjoy their free time rather than work more hours.
It’s true that many people feel they have to work longer hours just to maintain their standard of living, which can lead to less leisure time.
This raises important questions about how society values work and leisure and how taxes play a role in that.
You also point out how this can benefit those in power, which is an important perspective.
It makes me think about how we can find a balance between earning a living and enjoying life.
What do you think would help people find more balance between work and leisure time?
