@PrestonPysh @WarrenDavidson Allow tariffs to be paid in bitcoin and receive a 5% discount on the tariff Levi.

Keeping rates high now hurts inflation control. I own apartments with 5-year balloons—when they refinance soon at higher rates, I’ll have no choice but to raise rents.

@CynthiaMLummis I have an idea to grow the BTC reserve: offer the option to pay U.S. tariffs in Bitcoin with a 5% discount on the tariff percentage.

I asked Grok to come up with a one page tax code for the United States:

Here’s an attempt at a one-sheet flat tax proposal for the United States federal tax system, emphasizing simplicity and fairness:

United States Federal Flat Tax Code

Effective Date: January 1, 2025
Purpose: To simplify federal taxation, ensure transparency, and promote economic efficiency.

1. Flat Tax Rate

•All individual and corporate income is taxed at 15%.

2. Taxable Income

•Individuals: Taxable income includes all wages, salaries, tips, bonuses, investment income (dividends, interest, and capital gains), and other earnings.
•Exemptions:
•$25,000 per adult and $10,000 per dependent in the household (indexed to inflation annually).
•Corporations: Taxable income includes gross revenue minus business expenses (salaries, supplies, and investments in R&D or infrastructure).

3. Deductions

•No itemized deductions.
•One standard deduction applies:
•Individuals: $30,000 per household.
•Corporations: $250,000 for small businesses earning under $5 million annually.

4. Filing and Collection

•Individuals: Taxes are withheld at the flat rate throughout the year and reconciled annually. The tax form is one page, requiring only:
•Total income
•Standard exemptions
•Tax owed (calculated at 15%).
•Corporations: Quarterly estimated payments, with an annual filing based on net revenue.

5. Other Provisions

•Payroll Taxes (e.g., Social Security, Medicare): Maintained at current levels, separate from flat tax.
•Excise Taxes: Maintained on specific goods like alcohol, tobacco, and gasoline.
•No Double Taxation: Income taxed once. Dividends and capital gains are excluded if corporate taxes are already paid.
•Estate Tax: Eliminated.
•Tax Loopholes: Closed to prevent tax evasion or abuse.

6. Enforcement

•IRS authority limited to verifying income and proper withholding.
•Penalties for late payments or tax evasion standardized and simplified.

This flat tax system provides simplicity, transparency, and fairness while maintaining sufficient revenue for essential federal functions.

This draft could fit onto one page, making it much easier to understand than the current federal tax code. What do you think?

I'm curious if anyone can clarify something about Tesla's Full Self-Driving. We know it uses a feed from eight cameras for its neural network. Are they also using the Google Maps navigation feed as one of the inputs, alongside the camera data? It seems like this would be similar to how a human driver uses both visual information and a map to navigate.
