.@friedberg: “We are now at a moment where we are saying there is no longer private property in the United States.
This is one of the foundational rights that the founders of the United States tried to create: a distinction between these other nations that everyone flees from, where a monarchy or a totalitarian government or some communist system says everyone owns everything together, or some small number of people own and control everything.
And that’s what this always comes down to.
Whether it’s a socialist state or a communist state or a monarchy or some other totalitarian regime, there’s a small number of people that own and control everything.
And that is the brink that we’re on.
Because they are trying to say, for the first time ever, there is no longer private property in the United States.
That if the government can say everything that you’ve already paid your income tax on, and then you’ve bought and you now own, the government can take a piece of it every year based on the vote and the budgetary needs of an irresponsible fiscal legislature.
We’ve lost it all.
And that’s where we are.
And we see this just passed in Illinois.
People think it’s just crypto, just like they think that billionaire tax is just billionaires.
But anytime the government can take your private property after you’ve paid your taxes, bought something, and put it in your garage, we are done for.
That is when the politburo has unlimited capacity to tax and take and do what they want.
That’s the moment we’re at.”
City kids are different.
At the bar at an “elevated” burger spot. Witnessed two kids face time their parents for Apple Pay and proceed to order wagyu sliders and truffle fries to go. I can’t 😂😂
Four years ago, I found JJ Spaun working on his game at a Scottsdale muni, what can best be described as a goat track. I asked what he was doing there; he said practicing alongside everyday golfers kept him rooted. Really cool to see a guy like that get an opportunity like this
