What's your suggestion exactly? Making anyone who can find a bug a millionaire? That's ridiculous. 250k is already insanely high.
You make a bunch money too, should you pay $100 for that taco? It's nothing to you.

Looking at my yearly net income, paying 100$ for a single taco in a year would mean that 0.26% of my net income would go into a taco. Paying 0.1$ for a single taco would make it 0.00026%. According to the consensus in this comment section, that would be pretty gracious. Yes, that's where I'm going with this.
//Edit: Thanks at postflopclarity for pointing out my wrong math.
so you make $5 million / year but you're still incredulous at
> It's wild how much money big corporations have. ?
I was wondering why my math wasn't mathing, but was too busy to earn money at the same time. Thanks for pointing it out, fixed! Now my statement makes way more sense.
Yeah, assuming the people working at the taco shop aren't very well off the taco should cost $100 for a software engineer, $80M for Jeffrey Bezos, and $4 for someone down on their luck.
If we wanted, we could make this more efficient by giving out free healthcare and housing to people, proportional to their need, and tax $95 from the software engineer, $80M from Bezos, and $0 from someone down on their luck.
Progressive Tacos does sound better than Progressive taxation, and it would probably work better because rich people dodge taxes all the time, but come on, who doesn't want to eat tacos?
We (software engineers) won't have proper empathy for the poor until we go into an apple store and the price tag on the iPhone is "20% of your net worth".
Right. So why work when everything is priced according to your worth? I'll stay in my $2 rent and free food delivery for life. Thank you.
Equal to the black market price.
Anything less is an incitement to allow exploits to be used in the wild.
That's a different argument. Price it for its worth, not for my worth.
