@RuthTriglia @LenSchulwitz @TriumphICDHQ @Alvaroidz @elonmusk Irrespective of your political view I don’t think Musk is being as active as he is for a tax cut. With respect, he is many billions of dollars way ahead of that. Whether you agree with his views isn’t the point - but I don’t think you can question his sincerity.

I have never been materially active in politics before, but this time I think civilization as we know it is on the line.
If we want to preserve freedom and a meritocracy in America, then Trump must win.

Elon is one of the best in the world at synthesizing complex information and seeing a path forwards He's not always right -- as none of us are -- but he has an incredible track record of seeing non-obvious things years ahead of others

@elonmusk Is there any point applying officially for a green card ? Easier and cheaper to just arrive?

Most of Earth should move to California!
Illegals get free medical care in California as of January and now get “payback optional” $150k loans, funded by California taxpayers, among many other benefits.
Peter St Onge, Ph.D.@profstonge
California to give $150,000 "loans" to illegal migrants they don't have to repay unless they sell their house. This will ramp up the cost of housing -- already at record highs. It will ramp up the cost of illegal migration -- already $450 billion per year. And it invites another 2008-style housing crash.

@GaryPayinda On sale or annually on unrealised capital gains?

@RadioGenoa While what is being said is jarring, he is free to express his views, no matter what we think of those views. Freedom of speech is essential.
English

@GoingParabolic Do you get a credit if the values drop? I would have thought this tax will reduce property values significantly so that all owners will receive a substantial tax credit. There would also be material avoidance and complicance costs.
English

@StrayDogNZ Clearly unhealthy. Question is - do you want the government to decide what you can have?
English

@MikeNewZ_ @chrisluxonmp Good point! Define “core” responsibilities - not sexy but important. It would be tempting to do the same for central government as well. Education/ infrastructure/ Health/ Justice (Courts & enforcement). Get some genuine focus on what matters.
English

@chrisluxonmp If that’s what you want, you need to amend the purpose of local government in the local government act. Particularly s10(1)(b)

English

@elonmusk Unrealised capital gains… wow. Does that comes with credits when values drop? The valuation industry will be voting Harris won’t they?
English

@NZMAGAMike Any citizen must be allowed to vote irrespective of their birth country. Interesting debate is whether you have more than one nationality. Equally, should you be allowed to vote when you are in prison?
English

@DillyHussain88 Pathetic. Why stoke the fire. We don’t need this.
English

@jeremycorbyn It’s not the far right or left that are the problem in of themselves. It’s authoritarianism, and extremes. Both sides of left and right are equally bad. It’s this extremism cloaked in revisionist history that we need to keep an eye on.
English

@elonmusk Why aren’t more people talking about it? The cost of debt, and lack of sovereign funds.

@RusselNorman @FedFarmers If this is the norm why is the farmer being prosecuted? Or are you saying every New Zealand farmer is being prosecuted?
English

This is Intensive Winter Grazing. This is the reality of agribusiness. The NZ Govt is currently changing the law with its RMA amendment bill so there will be more of this. It’s what happens when the former head of @FedFarmers is the Agri Minister. 1news.co.nz/2024/07/26/sou…

@MichelleObama @KamalaHarris Embrace democracy. Would be great to see specific policies like tax rates, and debt, rather than just looking at their personalities. But can’t say it’s not all consuming entertainment and I’m not even American and can’t vote… 🤣
English

I’m so proud of my girl, Kamala. Barack and I are so excited to endorse her as the Democratic nominee because of her positivity, sense of humor, and ability to bring light and hope to people all across the country. We’ve got your back, @KamalaHarris!

@kiwirishhpsauce Fukushima - was a whisker away from destroying Tokyo. I’m happy to pay more for something that isn’t that inherently potentially so destructive. Can’t control everything.
English

@VeronicaGlamis @chrisluxonmp My prediction - there will be a successive National government following this one.
English

Aotearoa New Zealand's current (but not for long) government is a #CoalitionOfCharlatans - the part time PM just waiting for a Knighthood, the lazy, lilylivered @chrisluxonmp should be ashamed of himself!!
English

@pearce_murray You think the government deliberately wants to put these business out of business? With the loss of jobs, costs to landlords.. and the local economy. Do you wonder if the cost of running these business, including the increased minimum wage has impacted on the costs and demand?
English

The hospitality industry was supported by the Labour govt. Now they are being thrown on the bonfire of austerity deliberately by a government that has collapsed the everyday economy for ideological reasons only rnz.co.nz/news/national/…
