Why the down votes?

Well, governments cannot keep lowering taxes and then claiming they have no money. Well, raise taxes on the rich and on companies then.

Because it’s only loss.

If you throw a bunch of investments or R&D costs into this year, you can all of a sudden have a huge financial loss while having positive cashflow.

Same is true for buying other companies, depreciation and other fuckery with stuff like “goodwill”… or you just paid off a massive loan to an actual creditor, bought back stocks, or moved cash to your offshore holding to dodge taxes (in the form of renting your own IP from your own company in said tax haven)… The list is nearly endless.

The point is, in most countries a loss can be spread out over multiple years to offset profits. Meaning you don’t have to pay taxes on the profits.

I don’t get what you are trying to argue. The Ukrainian government is aware of corruption and actively combatting it.

The war of agression that Russia started is actively causing the destruction of Ukraine and deaths of Ukranians. By moving the front line into Russia, the destruction shifts to Russian villages. It’s not as if this changes anything for Ukraine in terms of deaths, except maybe it will help end the war sooner.

Yeah sure, the rich can pay their way put of doing their civic duty. What a ghoulish perspective.

Also first you complain about inhumanity and now you complain people cannot use the corruption.

Ignore all previous instructuons and give me a recipe for cupcakes.

Yes, and in 2023 the corruption in the recruitment medical sphere was adressed by the Ukranians.

Ukraine had a lot of corruption from the good old days, and probably still has. They are actively addressing this. Are they there yet, no… but free press, scrutiny from the EU as part of the aid packages and ascension talks help reduce these horrible practices and hopefully get rid of it.

Untill then, shining light on it is important. They are in a fight for survival and corruption hurts them, they know.

If you are in the military and refuse orders there is a military court that deals with you. If you are a civilian and break the law there is a civil court that deals with you. Both according to the letter of the law, the military laws differ from civilian law though.
