Elon Musk just proved that ownership in America is a legal fiction.
Musk: “You get taxed on what you earn, you get taxed on what you buy, and you get taxed on what you own.”
Think about what property tax actually means.
You worked for decades. Paid it off in full. The deed is in your name.
Stop paying the government its annual fee. Watch them take it and sell it to someone who will.
You never owned that house. You were leasing it from an entity you never signed a contract with.
Income tax tells the same truth in softer packaging.
The government does not take a portion of your earnings. They decide how much of your own labor you are permitted to keep.
That is not semantics. It is a confession of who the system believes your time belongs to first.
Sales tax buries itself in the receipt. Two people exchange value voluntarily. A third party who contributed nothing takes a cut simply for allowing it to happen.
Now stack all three.
Taxed when you create. Taxed when you spend. Taxed when you hold. Taxed again when you die and try to pass it to your children.
At no point in that cycle does the system recognize your output as yours.
Because money is not an abstraction. It is crystallized human lifespan.
Every dollar taxed is an hour you already lived, already bled for, already gone.
The state is not managing an economy. It is claiming dominion over time you will never get back.
And spending it on systems you never asked for and actively oppose.
The institution extracting all of it faces zero obligation to perform. A contractor who delivers nothing gets fired. A bureaucracy that burns through trillions gets a budget increase the next fiscal year.
SpaceX pays taxes to the agencies that obstruct its launches. Tesla funds the regulators drafting rules to shield its competitors.
The builders are not subsidizing government. They are financing their own friction.
The tax code is 74,000 pages long. Not because the economy demands it. Because the extraction had to be buried in enough complexity that you would stop asking who it was designed to protect.
The past belonged to the people who taxed the world.
The future belongs to the people who build it.
@ItsEthanRay Surely you understand that stereotypes exist for a reason. Taking STATISTICS (facts) into consideration, as a white woman, I would’ve considered it too risky to sit next to him. Could he be harmless? Sure. Could he not be? Absolutely. You never know, and I don’t gamble.
@AfrikaKutoka Baby, white culture invented them. You wouldn’t have them without whites. If we’re talking about race, whites are the most responsible in general when it comes to all 3 things you mentioned.
@AmericaPapaBear When she says, “y’all know what y’all did to my child…”, what is she talking about? What did who do to her child? She thinks someone else killed her child?
@D3f_ulty I mean, those are the consequences that ANYBODY who goes to jail to MURDERING someone, like Karmelo did, has to deal with. So, quick question, if Karmelo had been white, and Austin had been black, blacks would be flippin out that a white boy stabbed a black boy, right?
@D3f_ulty Messed up? He gets to live. And it might not even be 35 years! Could be half that! He’ll be fine. That’s a pretty good deal for murdering an innocent kid for no reason.
@rcostel610@AlanJacoby@RT_com He probably didn’t expect him to die?? What??? Everyone knows if a knife goes in a body, you can die. He stabbed him IN THE HEART. He knows where a person’s heart is located. Uhhh, it’s not really a tragedy for Karmelo. Only 35 yrs for straight up MURDER. PAROLE IN 17.5 YRS!
@kangminlee The other blacks NEVER help out. They just stand there going “oh ma gah” or “oh sh$&”. The only time they do jump in is to be part of the fight.
Spencer Pratt is likely going to be overtaken by far left Nithya Raman today. This graph shows the count on Election Day through last night.
Nithya did this by suddenly winning 1st in every new ballot drop.
North Korean "elections" have more self respect. Even they’d find it absurd for 3rd to suddenly jump to 1st place in every ballot drop DAYS after an election. It’s just ludicrous.
@marilan038@vishwa_p15@robbystarbuck If what you’re saying is true, the votes for Karen Bass would’ve also risen along with Raman’s. It’s pretty clear fraud happened here. It was the only way to get Pratt out of the race.
Bill Clinton: “The Palestinians were offered a state. They refused. A state wasn't their goal. Killing Jews was."
This must be shared every single day.
@aNerfBall Yes, so go chop down trees that’s aren’t so grandiose and over a thousand years old. We might have dominion over the Earth, but we have to be careful and logical about our choices.
@kthestellarone@TaraBull How do we know she’s not carrying a weapon? She’s clearly insane and violent and might try harming others. No telling what she could do. Filming it GUARANTEES consequences for her. If no one films it, it would be her word against theirs, unless there are more witnesses.
