Canadians can jump for joy tomorrow. It is Tax Freedom day.
Tomorrow, June 9, 2026, is Tax Freedom Day. This date marks the day of the year when Canadians start working for themselves instead of working to pay taxes!
If Canadians paid their annual taxes up front, they would work the first 158 days of the year just for taxes.
In 2026, the average family will pay $72,539 in taxes, which is 43.5% of their annual income (based on an average family income of $166,790)
Edison was the incumbent.
He ran a smear campaign to bury the future, publicly electrocuting dogs and even a horse to convince the public that Tesla's alternating current was lethal, and he lobbied to put AC in the electric chair so people would associate it with death. Pure FUD to protect his book.
Tesla was the actual genius. He saw the system that would power the entire planet, and the politics buried him alive.
Elon is not the Edison of our time. He is the Tesla of our time, except this time the genius wins.
@hawaiianize@TheApeOfGoldST Apparently the MRE was delayed in order to comply with some vulture exchange rules. Rules, I may add, that have been in place for....ever.
Will “Hidden” Loan Values Spark Big Legal Trouble for Wall Street??
Insurance companies protecting private credit players are getting nervous.
The WSJ reports Double digit increases for insurance premiums are possible as private credit firms’ insurers brace for a wave of lawsuits over how loans are valued.
Every rebalance for Anthropic, SpaceX and OpenAI will lead to the chaos we saw at 3:50 p.m. unless we take this stuff out of the shadows. The manipulation potential is so fraught and the losses will be so palpable that it has to be discussed ahead of time to stave it off!!!
Imagine the stock market like a big playground with swings and slides (stocks anyone can buy).
But some giant secret forts (Anthropic, SpaceX, OpenAI) are hidden. Only rich grown-ups own pieces inside.
When they "rebalance" (move their money to keep things fair), they do it in the dark. Big moves shake everything—prices jump or crash fast, like the wild stuff at 3:50.
Jim Cramer says: Turn on bright lights and make rules first! Or sneaky moves can hurt regular kids who just want to play safe.

Bloomberg reports that investors are suing Jefferies after one of its funds, 352 Capital, lost millions on bonds from what turned out to be a fraudulent water vending machine scheme.
First reported on this in 2024
