Notes
  1. Appointed by the President of Russia as Acting Head of Republic
gollark: You could just randomize the tax brackets every year, could be fun.
gollark: HOW theoretically?
gollark: I checked on the internet™ and apparently the bottom 50% don't contribute very much to tax, presumably because they're already quite slanted that way.
gollark: Hmm, I checked and apparently it seems like you may in fact be able to move the curves substantially rightward without impacting tax income very much.
gollark: They can move somewhere else, however.
