  • I’m not sure. Some years ago a friend and me figured out, during a vacation it would be fun to take a lot of shrooms and just lie on the beach on a day like on the picture. We tripped our brain but we became crustaceans from outside from the sun, it hurt as hell for a week.

    So folks be safe, consume hallucinogens in the shadow on days like that.

    The most communist part is that the whole process is fully managed by the government tax office, not some 3rd party private company.

    The not communist part is that it takes unbelievable amount of corruption to program and maintain these services under the hood. They figured out that it’s hard to measure how much human work needed to develop such a thing, so they can just invoice whatever unbelievable amount they want. American companies help with that as well. Windows and Office license for state offices 3-4 times higher than the normal price for consumers, because for some reason they can’t buy it directly from Microsoft, they have to buy from local appointed dealers… Actually MS was fined for this for USD 8.7 Million, the local party in one of this deal was promoted to higher government position afterwards.

    So actually this doesn’t exist for making the peasant’s life easier, just to have jobs to steal from… It’s just accidental that our small life becomes a bit less miserable during the process.



  • I tell you how it works in my shitty eastern european country:

    • I get an email that my report is ready, I have to go to a website where I can see it.
    • After logging in I can see a list, where I worked last year, how much was paid, if I should pay anything more or I can get back something.
    • If everything is alright I can hit OK. If something is not right I can open an issue on the same website, but I never had to do that ever.

    That’s all. Usually takes less than 5 minutes for the whole process.
