gollark: is bad
gollark: I also support massively simplifying the legal system and taxes and such so it's harder to do that.
gollark: It's not a *crime* to meddle with finances to be taxed somewhere else.
gollark: Well, I just think "hmm, do I agree with this or not", then I click something between "strongly agree" and "strongly disagree".
