All Steemit Users Must Pay Me 25% of Their Earnings From Now On

son-of-satire (69) in taxes • 7 years ago (edited)

I have decided that I should be entitled to some of what you are all working so hard to acquire- your precious STEEM.

While there may be no logical reason why I should receive 25% of your earnings, I have written it down in a book in a fancy font, so it's now a rule that you have no choice but to abide by.

If you do not pay me what I have demanded in a timely fashion, I will find you and lock you in my basement with the others.

Now- give me my money, and resteem this post so that your followers know they have to pay up too.

_{^{If this sounds utterly ridiculous to you, then explain to me how paying taxes to the government does not?}}

This sounds reasonable. But it would be more reasonable if some people will be professionals after reading your book. They will pay you to learn and publish your book. I will pay them 24% of my earnings instead of paying you.

It's all about the font. If you'd done it in Hobo or Comic Sans, nobody would take you seriously. But do it in Trajan or Copperplate Gothic, and it says established fact.

Well, if you have written it down in a book in fancy font then it must be binding. Do you have any other rules that you would like us to live by? All you have to do is make more entries into your book in fancy font.

You are already getting a portion of my earnings!
Every time your posts are upvoted more than mine, then you get a bigger portion of the payout, and I get a smaller portion of the payout.

Sooo, I am just going to call you a big meany!
And I don't want to even know about your stinky book.

Nor do I want to look at the books of the Infernal Revolting Sect, which you are trying to parody.
