@elonmusk NASA has become a joyride service for Senators, schoolteachers and DEI looky lous. They should dissolve NASA and give the entire budget to SpaceX.
@BakkenShale The corrupt judiciary will be issuing a harsh verbal admonishment followed by a severe wag of the finger. Those perps will be stomping little girls next week.
@CodfishJohnny@StockJabber@FuzzyPandaShort Mark Baum: We live in an era of fraud in America. Not just in banking, but in government, education, religion, food, even baseball. What bothers me isn't that fraud is not nice. Or that fraud is mean. For fifteen thousand years, fraud and short sighted thinking have never worked.
@StandUpForFact The corrupt judiciary will issue a strongly worded verbal admonishment followed by a severe wag of the finger. He'll be back bustin down doors before dinner time.
The Netherlands cancelled the 36% tax on unrealized gains after huge public protests.
Most people don't realize what's happening here: the Netherlands has had a wealth tax since 2001.
- They assume 7.78% fictitious returns on investments >51k.
- This is taxed at 36%, no matter if you have incurred losses.
- The new proposal would βjustβ tax real capital gains at 36%.
Wealth taxes or unrealized capital gains taxes are led by the EU. 80% of countries with a wealth tax are EU members.
Just like income tax was first paid in only a few countries, then by just a few percent of the population, and now it is common practice, the EU is slowly setting a new standard for wealth taxation.
