big three” (income tax / VAT / NI)

 A

When people refer to the “big three” taxes in the UK—Income Tax, National Insurance (NI), and VAT—they account for the majority of government revenue. Based on the most recent UK Treasury / OBR data (2024–25 estimates):

Tax Approx. % of total UK government revenue
Income Tax ~26–27%
National Insurance Contributions (NICs) ~17–18%
VAT ~19–20%
Combined “big three” ~62–65% of total revenue

So over 60% of government revenue comes from just these three. The remaining ~35–38% comes from corporation tax, excise duties (fuel, alcohol, tobacco), council tax, business rates, capital gains tax, stamp duties, and other smaller sources.

If you want, I can also break down how much each “big three” contributes per household on average—gives a more concrete feel for the numbers. Do you want me to do that?

A

Beyond the “big three” (Income Tax, VAT, and National Insurance), the UK government collects revenue from several other sources. Here’s a breakdown of the main ones:

Tax / Revenue Source Approx. % of total revenue Notes
Corporation Tax ~8–9% Paid by companies on profits; subject to rates changes.
Excise Duties ~6–7% Includes fuel duty, alcohol, tobacco, and gambling duties.
Council Tax ~5% Levied locally on households based on property value.
Business Rates ~3–4% Paid by businesses on property they occupy.
Capital Gains Tax ~1–2% On profits from selling assets like property or shares.
Inheritance Tax ~1% On estates above a certain threshold.
Stamp Duty / Land Transaction Tax ~1–2% Paid on property or land transfers.
Other smaller sources ~3–4% Includes interest, fines, fees, etc.

So even though the “big three” dominate, there’s a diverse mix of smaller taxes that together make up roughly a third of total government revenue.

If you want, I can also make a visual pie chart of all UK taxes to see the proportions clearly—it makes it easier to grasp at a glance. Do you want me to do that?

NDE POST 

Here’s a bullet-point gist of your passage, capturing its key insights clearly and concisely:

  • After death and returning, a deeper understanding of reality emerged.

  • Realized there exists a higher, non-physical realm that provides true meaning, fulfillment, support, and love.

  • Discovered the self is far greater than previously imagined — radiant with love and grace.

  • Understood that life on Earth is a play or expression of Higher Consciousness.

  • Recognized that the “world” is a human creation, built from shared beliefs, traditions, and illusions.

  • Saw two distinct paths of awareness:

    • Horizontal path: human-made world of external achievements and inherited illusions.

    • Vertical path: inner Divine connection — from the sacred heart upward into eternity.

  • This awakening transformed the entire perspective on life, aligning it with spiritual truth and cosmic awareness.

TRUTH NICHE X Truth is valuable but rare; humans mostly chase validation instead. Deep understanding takes effort and is a niche pursuit

 A

Here’s a concise bullet-point gist of the post “The Truth is a Niche Interest for Human Beings”:

  • Early learning of dishonesty: By age 3–4, humans learn the practical value of lying to protect themselves or manipulate outcomes.

  • Truth is secondary: Truth often conflicts with personal safety, status, and social advantage. People instinctively prioritize these over accuracy.

  • Childhood examples:

    • Exaggerating a father’s height to “win” an argument.

    • Conducting a playground Coke vs Pepsi poll—validation felt better than factual accuracy.

  • Adult behavior parallels:

    • Activists, pundits, and academics often prioritize persuasion or theory promotion over truth.

    • Scientific claims and headlines are often exaggerated or selectively reported for impact.

  • Validation over knowledge: People crave emotional validation more than understanding, and tend to spin facts to support their position.

  • Humans are credulous: People are easily impressed, misled, or validated, producing widespread delusion.

  • Truth-seeking is difficult and niche:

    • It requires slow, careful work: examining evidence, counterarguments, and uncertainties.

    • Emotionally taxing; challenges tribe loyalty and induces self-doubt.

  • Metaphor: Pursuing truth = running a marathon; consuming media for validation = grabbing a donut. The easier option dominates human behavior.

  • Practical takeaway: Focused, in-depth inquiry into one issue at a time is more realistic than trying to stay informed on everything. Truth-seeking is elective, nerdy, and rare.

  • Conclusion: Human nature favors quick validation and social advantage over careful truth-seeking, making dispassionate inquiry a niche interest.

If you want, I can also condense this into a single-paragraph “TL;DR” version suitable for sharing. Do you want me to do that?

Swami Vivekananda considered Advaita Vedānta to be the religious philosophy for the modern world. In a letter written to E. T. Sturdy from New York in Aug. 1895, the Swami says, “That religious ferment which at present is every day gaining a greater hold over thinking men, has this characteristic that all the little thought-whirlpools into which it has broken itself declare one single aim—a vision and a search after the Unity of Being. On planes physical, ethical, and spiritual, an ever-broadening generalisation—leading up to a concept of Unity Eternal—is in the air; and this being so, all the movements of the time may be taken to represent, knowingly or unknowingly, the noblest philosophy of the unity man ever had—the Advaita Vedānta.”
