This is essentially true.
However, it is possible to filter for exceptional people from any country. The problem for the left is that exceptional people mostly won’t vote for them.
The top 0.1% paid $440 billion in federal income taxes.
The bottom 80% paid $350 billion.
Yes, the top 0.1% paid more than the entire bottom 80% COMBINED.
The tax code is already extremely progressive. Leftists know this. There’s almost nothing left to extract from income.
That’s why they’ve shifted the target from income to assets.
They now want to expropriate asset owners through property taxes and wealth taxes.
But even then, total confiscation would only fund the government for a few months, while destroying the productive capital that generates future wealth.
Essentially, they’re trading the future for a few short months of spending.
And no amount will ever satisfy them, because the real goal is to forbid wealth creation itself.
No one is allowed to rise above the lowest common denominator.
But the truth remains that the government already has more than enough revenue.
We have a spending problem, not a revenue problem.
View of Starship in space from a Starlink V3 satellite on Flight 13.
This composite is made of imagery from four separate cameras on a single satellite. Six of the satellites were equipped with cameras to scan Starship’s heat shield and transmit imagery down to operators to continue testing methods of analyzing Starship’s heat shield readiness for return to launch site on future missions

Tesla now has a dedicated live Virtual Power Plant dashboard for multiple regions: California, Texas, New England, Australia and Puerto Rico.
In total, Tesla has 226,158 homes participating with a total capacity of 2.3 GW.
You can even go back in time to a specific grid event/date and see how many Powerwall units dispatched, energy output for that event, etc. Pretty cool.

NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman: SpaceX helped lead America’s shift to methane rocket fuel.
"SpaceX was one of the first to move on from their current propellant structure, which is basically refined diesel and liquid oxygen, to liquid methane or liquid natural gas and liquid oxygen.
But we know so very little about it and what we get concerned about very early on is what happens if something goes wrong during testing? And we assumed a lot of worst case scenarios. But other companies, so Blue Origin, for example, decided, this is the right path we should go on to.
Now the problem is you have all these companies working on this new propellant system, and we had to take very conservative views, which would have actually shut down testing and launch operations at multiple centers across the United States. And this employee, Berkowitz, he came up with the analysis that determined, actually, it's a lot safer than we may think it is, and it's permitted us to conduct lots of simultaneous operations. It was a real enabling breakthrough work he did, and that's why he was honored."
What happened in Ceuta is happening across Europe and in the U.K.
The scale is smaller and the rate of influx slower. But the net result will be the same.
Europe and the U.K. will be overwhelmed.
Our borders need military enforcement
This is extremely important to understand.
The birth rate you see in the West is the BLENDED number of ~90% who have a fertility rate half that of replacement and ~10% who have a birth rate double that of replacement.
Demographics is destiny.
Immigration is the meta-issue because it determines who will get to decide every other issue. It must be the top priority. No other issue is even close to it in importance. Vote for whoever credibly promises closed borders and remigration. We’ll work out everything else later.
