@Codie_Sanchez Check back in ten years after they joined three failed startups taking a substandard salary to participate in “ownership”. 90% of startups fail. Remaining 9.999% are jobs. 0.001% generate wealth
Making bank and plowing it into compounding assets is proven.
@fehzan1@finbarr No they will no regret it. 1 yr development will save 2M over 3 yrs. Salesforces is a crappy UI on a crud database with a proprietary programming language. Resources costing us 500k/yr will be replaced with 20/hr costs for coding on open stack react and TS AWS lambdas
@GHThree52@finbarr Don’t mistake it for vibe coding. It is focused engineering using 5 devs for 6 months replacing 1.8M license. React admin driven front end driving https://t.co/Xivhtx7zU1 framework APIs. All on demand compute. Deployed AWS on demand costing <200/mo. Using AI tools - yes.
@Keanekatkeane@World_At_War_6 Kill drug cartel participants and everything around their compounds. Turn it into rubble like Gaza. Follow up with continued assassinations and international snatch and grabs. Cartels lose recruits when they can’t spend cash and have to live in a cave
⚡️Here is the bare truth.
California is entering the seizure phase of the wealth cycle. The productive core has thinned. The debt load is locked. The spending base cannot shrink without civil fracture. The only lever left is the static pool of accumulated capital that remains geographically or legally tethered. That tether becomes the target.
Wealth taxes are designed to drain the visible stores of value before exit accelerates. It is a liquidation impulse masked as equity. The system senses its own depletion and attempts to extract the last residues of yield from those who stayed.
But wealth is not a lake. It is a current. It flows to where energy is respected and risk is rewarded. Once a jurisdiction signals that stored capital will be treated as a liability to be mined, not a resource to be cultivated, the current moves.
The deeper pattern here is civilizational: legacy structures that once scaled through productive expansion are now cannibalizing their own hierarchy. The state is no longer a steward. It is a harvester. It no longer incentivizes creation. It demands contribution from what has already been built.
When builders leave, the system turns on the remaining holders. The ones who cannot flee. The ones still visible. That is what this tax is.
This is what it looks like when a state becomes a predator. And the hunt has already begun.
@rroruman@JasonL_Capital $AMZN broke below the 50 day and below 2 year channel. Sellers will keep it flat or down for awhile. There might some better ballast stocks.
@Iam_Rohit_G 50k yearly fees on all H1Bs annual renewals. Cancel OPT and limit J-1s to 2 weeks.
Tax remittance back to India 25%. Modi will cave
This week we replaced 5 H1Bs using AI tools. They add no value as low-skilled labor. So, they are now illegally on the “bench” spamming for jobs
@NIO_NA_USA@Ghostofcynthia@_GlobeObserver China won’t buy their cars or machinery. They have a 250B trade surplus with the US and a massive trade deficit with China. Good luck retards
@bthemouth@WallStreetMav The EU will lose its 150B trade surplus (including military)
The EU taxes will go up to pay for defense
The EU has its own currency which deflates
Germany car makers will collapse
Tourism benefitting EU 27B will collapse
The US grew 5x faster last 20 yrs.
We’ll be fine
@VandelayBTC@vuleZivotinja@compliantvc No you are not better of in the US. It’s an illusion. 400k gross household taxed 35% after deductions. Add avg state at 6%. Then add med premium deduction from employer, add soc sec, Medicare and that’s 10%. Then add sales tax, other hidden taxes and we’re 55%
@BlackPantherCap Can you post your prompt?
I did the following and yielded very different results.
“Run a bull case, base case and bear case for 2026 for $iren”
