How does your setting's tax policy work? Does it include unemployment benefits?

You just wanted to post your shitty image macro.
>>97973736Now that you mention it, in cyberpunk you have the monthly wages for doing off jobs during downtime, but is that taxed? Of course a nomad won't pay taxes, but I imagine a corpo would.
>>97974718In cyberpunk there are licenses you pay for. Taxes are paid alongside the rest of the costs. Of course nobody bothers with those rules.
>>97974739Well we do track food and living costs, phone tariffs and the like, but unless there's a time skip it's not really that relevant usually, unless they just splurged to get new toys on payday and are now forced to find some money fast.
>>97973446That picture feels like a personal attack.
>>97973446Specialist biochips are remotely overclocked for increased production. Recent wetware advancements have made it possible to access their brainpower in their sleep.
>>97973446Mandatory implantation provides robust control and law enforcement tools, strengthening the regime's grip over its subjects. The colloquially named "dictator-chips" monitor their owners and alert the authorities automatically if trouble arises.The dictator's cult of personality and reach over their subjects have been empowered via cybernetic implants. A people in awe of their leader are unlikely to rebel against the regime.
>>97973446We now exist in a fully virtual world. Nothing is true. Everything can be manipulated. With complete control over the lived environment, public opinion is ours to mold. The people will believe what we want them to believe.
The designated successor of the imperial throne inherits not only the position but a specialized implant passed through generations. It contains a wealth of priceless knowledge from their predecessors, imparting all types of wisdom on how to govern. The same technology is used throughout the empire in a lesser form, allowing other individuals to pass on their experiences onwards.
The unquestionable righteousness of the ruler is preserved through cloning, with each iteration of the grand sovereign inheriting the wisdom and triumphs of their past lives. This seamless continuity of leadership ensures the perpetual advancement of society, sustaining an eternal golden age under their enlightened reign.

>>97973446Taxes are levied by a guy that rides once or twice a year into town on a white horse to demand a tenth of your grain and livestock. the only way taxes should work

>>97973446There's no real government in my setting, so trade is managed by a league of merchants who mint and distribute their own currency. "Taxes" are collected by selling purchased goods at a slight markup, as well as charging a fee to use their trading outposts.
>>97973446There are sales taxes (these are included in the price of goods, PCs never think about them unless they open a shop) and property taxes on landowners, and dock fees. Basically, while of course the in-setting governments have sources of funds, PCs never interact with the tax system because who wants to do that?
