Cybersecurity troublemaker in Healthcare, used to be DoD causing problems.
'the difficulty is not on coming up with new ideas, but to undo the old one.'
Spare me the 'risked eveything' argument. We are talking about the hudrends of billions that sits untaxed because loopholes in tax law, not some person tying to get their startup out of the garage....
What about all the entrepreneurs that risked everything and failed ?
Or the ones that are grinding it out, trying to build a business ? You know, the ones that create more than 60 pct of the new jobs in this country.
The more successful they are, the more you hate them?
Take their money so they can't invest in other founders? Or invest in causes they believe in ?
And the ones that fail and get to deduct 3k a year of their losses ? Or went for it and are broke and might never see enough income to offset those losses ? You don't care if they go broke ?
10 pct of the people in this country are entrepreneurs that have started a business.
You ever try to help them ?
There are plenty of discussions to be had about income inequality. About helping people who are struggling economically.
I've talked about a lot of them in my timeline.
But in reality, saying "Eat the rich" will end up helping no one except maybe politicians trying to raise money. And probably hurt those in need, as more money is spent playing politics then helping
Wealth tax. Unearned income tax. Show me the multi year behavioral analysis, as opposed to simple models, that show more jobs, higher wages and personal wealth will be created for those who need it. I'd love to read them
Ideology is not a strategy. Nor is it a plan that has lasting impact on people who need help
And so you know.
I'm not a believer in trickle down. It's a joke.
I am a believer in trickle up. Where we do all we can get to get appreciable assets and higher wages into the hands of people who have to live paycheck to paycheck. I've said before I think raising the federal minimum wage to $20 is smart. When I heard people who worked for a company I invested in (but didn't run) needed government assistance, I made sure they all got raises. It was embarrassing to me that we didn't pay enough. I've made, or helped make, at least a thousand millionaires. And I'll keep working to increase that number
And that's the point.
The best path to help more people is to work with the people that can help more people.
If you demonize business people , you just make it harder for them to help anyone.
I'm not saying there aren't greedy, blood sucking business people that will do anything for a dollar.
But they are a small minority. Most entrepreneurs realize they are blessed. They want to find ways to help. They think they can use the same skills that built their business to help people.
And they can. They can hire more. They can give raises. They can educate. And they do all these things to help.
I've sat with Democrats and Republicans, incumbents and candidates,and asked them why they aren't meeting with businesses that make and sell the products that have become unaffordable, and asking them what can be done to reduce prices.
I do this continuously regarding healthcare. It's easy to see where the friction and increased pricing is coming from. Why (the politicians ) aren't you meeting with them and asking them to change ? Offering to support those that do raise wages, lower prices , improve benefits. Politicians just won't do it. They prefer the donations.
I did shark tank for 15 years purely to show people they can start small, grow their businesses, and help not only themselves, but their employees and their communities as well. And thats exactly what has happened.
Demonizing those that have success is counterproductive to every benefit you want to help bring to people.
The paint on Washington's newly renovated Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool was peeling away from the bottom and into the algae-tinted water, less than two weeks after President Trump announced the job's completion https://t.co/kNdlQ3GadE
Rep. Brandon Gill: "This is something that if we don't stop now, it's gonna be my daughter and daughters across the country who are going to be going to public schools wearing burkas."
The Art of the Deal: tear up deal because a black guy made it. Then spend years of Iran doing whatever it wants. Start a war, give them billions and then say you won. Simple!
This fucking UFC disgrace in front of the Lincoln Memorial is the worst thing to happen to him since he was shot in the head. If youโre not embarrassed and ashamed by this, youโre a goddamned idiot. The world laughs at us, when they arenโt pitying us.
So @SecWar that means Obama did more without having to get America service members killed and wounded and dropping $200 billion is cost? Hmmm sounds like you and your boss really suck at your jobs....
HEGSETH: The document says Iran will never have a nuclear weapon, won't seek one, won't buy one, won't have one
BRENNAN: The JCPOA said that too
HEGSETH: But they didn't have the threat of military force the way we do that Iran respects. President Trump led with military might.

Isn't this type of behavior the same thing we always hear when a woman is running for office? "She'll get emotional", "she wont be able to handle the stress"? But we have this guy instead.....
