+        <h2>A note for the future: the tax bleeding in 2025</h2>
+        <p>
+          I hate taxes deeply. I fell through the rabbit hole of libertarian and
+          anarcocapitalist ideas some years ago, and taxes have been repulsive
+          to me ever since. I go to great lengths to not pay them, and feel
+          deeply hurt everytime they sting my wallet against my will.
+        </p>
+        <p>
+          I know life goes by fast, and what today is vivid in your memory fades
+          away bit by bit until it's gone. I'm truly hoping that, some day in
+          the future, the world will have changed to the better and people won't
+          be paying as much tax as we're doing today in the West. Since in that
+          bright, utopical future I'm dreaming of I might have forgotten about
+          how bad things were on this matter in 2025, I've decided to make a
+          little entry here making an estimate on how many taxes I'm
+          theoretically bleeding on a yearly basis right now. So that we can
+          someday look back in time and wonder: "how the fuck did we tolerate
+          that pillaging".
+        </p>
+        <h3>Inventory</h3>
+        <p>
+          Before going hard into the number crunching let's list all the tax
+          items I'm aware of being subject to:
+        </p>
+        <ul>
+          <li>
+            Income Tax: for the sin of making money, the state takes a hefty
+            bite of my salary.
+          </li>
+          <li>
+            Social Security: the state runs a forceful Social Security
+            programme. If you work, it is illegal to not pay for it. It is
+            specially unnerving since it is quite literally a ponzi scheme. At
+            least Madoff lured you into it with pretty words, not violence.
+          </li>
+          <li>
+            VAT Tax: for the sin of buying stuff, the state takes another hefty
+            bite.
+          </li>
+          <li>
+            Real State Tax: for the sin of owning an apartment, the state
+            charges me rent. Do I own it actually?
+          </li>
+          <li>
+            Vehicle Tax: for the sin of owning a motorcycle, the state charges
+            me a yearly fee.
+          </li>
+          <li>
+            Wealth Transfer Tax: when you buy real state, you must pay 10% of
+            its value in taxes. This is a one off fee if you only buy one house
+            in your lifetime, but it is such a slap on the face that it would be
+            dishonest to not consider it.
+          </li>
+          <li>
+            Inheritance tax: you thought you were going to keep daddy's loot all
+            for yourself? When you inherit, you'll go through the register
+            again. Like the wealth transfer tax, is not a frequent one, but it's
+            big so let's consider it.
+          </li>
+        </ul>
+        <p>
+          There may be some other small, less frequent taxes that I'm not
+          considering. These are the ones that will hit most people in my
+          country.
+        </p>
+        <h3>The numbers</h3>
+        <p>
+          Okay, let's go compute the hideous bill. I'll make a hypothetical
+          profile that's roughly close to mine, with a few assumptions along the
+          way.
+        </p>
+        <ul>
+          <li>
+            <em>Salary</em>: online sources say the typical salary for my job
+            position in my area is 70k€ yearly. Including the Social Security
+            paid by the company, the sum rises to ~85K€. I consider this way of
+            measuring honest, since I think that all the money paid out by the
+            employer reflects what's the true salary and value of the employee.
+            I read it as, "the company is willing to pay 85K€ for this. What
+            ends up in the employees pocket, and what in the State's, they don't
+            mind".
+          </li>
+          <li><em>Expenses</em>: I'll assume I spend half of my salary.</li>
+          <li>
+            <em>Home Purchase</em>: I'll assume that, during my adult life, I
+            would buy once the average home in my town. From what I could find
+            online, that's somewhere around 500K€.
+          </li>
+          <li>
+            <em>Vehicles</em>: I own a motorcycle and share the expenses of a
+            car with my partner, so I'll count 1.5 vehicles.
+          </li>
+          <li>
+            <em>Inheritance tax</em>: I found a figure stating the average
+            windfall in my country is 250K€. We'll go with that.
+          </li>
+        </ul>
+        <p>With those clear, let's see the actual figures:</p>
+        <table>
+          <thead>
+            <tr>
+              <th>Tax</th>
+              <th>€/year</th>

+              </td>

+            <tr>
+              <td>Real Estate Tax (IBI)</td>
+              <td>1,000&nbsp;€</td>
+            </tr>
+            <tr>
+              <td>Vehicle Tax (1.5 vehicles)</td>
+              <td>225&nbsp;€</td>
+            </tr>
+            <tr>
+              <td>Wealth Transfer (10% home, spread 50y)</td>
+              <td>1,000&nbsp;€</td>
+            </tr>
+            <tr>
+              <td>Inheritance (7% of 250k, spread 50y)</td>
+              <td>350&nbsp;€</td>
+            </tr>
+          </tbody>
+          <tfoot>
+            <tr>
+              <th>Total</th>
+              <th>55,602&nbsp;€</th>
+            </tr>
+          </tfoot>
+        </table>
+        <p>
+          So there you go. A peaceful existence as a tech professional living a
+          normal life leads to bleeding at least 55K€ per year, all while
+          getting an 85K€ salary. The tax rate sits at a wonderful 64%. How far
+          away is this from hardcore USSR-grade communism?
+        </p>
+        <p>
+          And this is generous, since I didn't model (1) what gets stolen
+          through inflation diluting savings and (2) any capital gains that this
+          profile might end up paying for whatever investments he is doing with
+          his savings.
+        </p>
+        <p>
+          Then you'll see mainstream media puppets discussing why young people
+          don't have children. As if it was some kind of mistery. They're being
+          robbed their children's bread left and right, while getting hypnotized
+          into believing that protecting themselves against this outrageous
+          robbery is somehow morally despicable.
