minus-squareTheRealKuni@midwest.sociallinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up5·5 days agoPersonally I think “idiot tax” works better. “Stupid” and “dumb” being adjectives that could also be describing the tax itself, rather than the person paying it, is ambiguous. But “idiot tax” clearly says, to me anyway, “a tax on idiots.”
