There’s no modern metric that would ever put me in a non “net producer” bracket. I don’t know whether this can be twisted somehow. Let’s find out.
I don’t work in the public sector (hence I’m not paid with taxes, i.e., stolen money from other people), so I’m funded from a private entity that coerced no one to paying me because I produce value for them.
I pay any taxes I have to pay, not because I want to, but because I have to, unfortunately. I’d rather contribute to my local community than people I don’t know who don’t share goals with me.
I helped and continue to help all the people around me whenever they need it.
Sounds like you’re approaching that claim more from an ideological basis rather than any sort of analysis.
The question of whether you’re a net producer probably depends on what your employer does and asks of you, versus what you consume. Some organizations absolutely do not have an even balance between their dollars and their consumption (an extreme example: any organization profiting off of slave labor is undeniably consuming more than they’re paying–that’s just how externalities work).
So yeah, I don’t really expect more details because your privacy is your privacy, but if all you can say is you’re net earning money, I wouldn’t equate that to being a net producer.

Am I missing any additional qualifiers?
