This is a big problem with taxation..."pay double to support the government's wars, corporate subsidies, and other inefficient programs that probably don't align with your moral values." This is why I got into cryptos. Take the power away from the centralized, oligarchs and give it back to the people. Hopefully soon I won't have to cash out into fiat and I can avoid double taxation. I pay plenty of taxes from my salary, sales tax, etc. As of trading...they say 90 percent of people lose money day trading. I prefer mid term to long term holding, but sometimes if things line up properly, I will go for the short term day trade. Nice share
