Isn't that the point? Keeping data centers out of neighborhoods that don't want them?

Take a look at his post history, all he does is shill for offshoring so his portfolio companies can save a buck on labor costs.

I'm shocked, absolutely shocked that a Bluesky post would be deliberately misleading to push a narrative that we need more taxes.

Talent diversity willing to work for lower salaries is present elsewhere. That's really what it comes down to.

At least you own it, rather than making up an excuse like "talent shortage" or "pipeline" issue to try to conceal the fact that at the end of the day you're just trying to save a b…

There are plenty of domestic candidates that have those skills and backgrounds. You would just rather find offshore candidates and pay them less, rather than paying domestic salari…

Yeah, we know. I wish guys like you could just be honest and admit its really just about trying to save on labor costs rather than trying to frame this issue like there's some mass…

I love how this is always framed as a "pipeline and talent" problem issue (its not), when it's really a "pipeline and talent at salaries I want to pay" issue.

isn't one meal a day another form of calorie restriction though? It's very difficult to not be in a calorie deficit when you only eat once a day and are consistently active.

It's already 37% (for Federal). Add in another 14% for California and its over 50%. But even for simplicity sake, going to 40% would be far better and more practical than confiscat…

I literally said there should be some sort of final penalty or taxable event associated with borrowing against illiquid assets and unrealized gains for very HNW individuals.

> America was already taxing wealthy through the teeth years ago Except they weren’t. Those lovely 90% tax rates from the 1950s everyone on Reddit loves to bring up weren’t really …

If they leave (and some already have) they take their tax base with them. Not just for this one time levy, but for future tax years too. Then where will the state go to make up the…

I didn’t say the tax gap caused the drop in GDP. I did say the capital flight caused the tax to wildly underperform revenue estimates, which is objectively true. I love how this go…

In 2022 Norway increased wealth tax to 1.1%, expected to bring in an additional $146M tax revenue. Individuals with a net worth of $54B left the country, led to a $594M loss in tax…

The US debt is nearly 39 trillion dollars. Confiscating all of the assets of the nation’s billionaires wealth would yield 6-8T, depending on what kind creative accounting is done i…

You’re discussing raising corporate or individual income tax rates. I’m discussing a proposed broad wealth tax on unrealized gains and assets. The tax rates of the 50s were high, b…

I mean when you just make up a number, you should expect to be called out for it, lol. And I did engage with the real point. Even if it WAS 14 trillion dollars, that wouldn't fund …

I support some sort of disincentive to prevent HNW individuals from borrowing against assets for income. I do not support wealth taxes or taxing unrealized gains (unless you get re…

Of course its easy for you to say - its simple to just point the finger and claim you're entitled to your "fair share" of someone else's property simply because they have more than…

That’s a separate discussion. I think there should be some sort of tax penalty to borrowing against assets as a sort of infinite money glitch.

The government is taking 22% of your INCOME. Not your entire net worth. This is vastly different. HNW don’t have their net worth sitting in a pool of cash like Donald Duck as much …

Except is not 14 trillion (in the US) It is closer to 8 trillion. Even if it WAS 14 trillion, the fact that such an insane measure wouldn’t even fully fund the entire government fo…

And where will we get the money to fund this fantasy land in 8 months after the government runs out of money and we’ve already stolen all the billionaires assets? Should we move on…
