    Makes sense. If you are going to give them all your tax dollars anyways it seems silly to make them pay taxes on it, they are basically just paying themselves anyways.

    You cannot expect the government to pay taxes on the money they collect in taxes. And since Palantir apparently owns the whole country, this makes sense.

      Palantir doesn’t own the whole country, not yet, it’s more of a malignant tumour that keeps spreading and resists treatment. Some progress appears to be being made right now but who knows if the country will survive it in the long run.

      Meanwhile Trump and co seem to pretty much own the US now.

      The UK has generally been roughly 5 years behind the US with most things.
