@LinkofSunshine Property appreciation, 10% return on my investment every year from rental income, plus depreciation and other tax loopholes. I’ll take my 15% all day and pay practically zero taxes. What return index is that good?

@MarketPalmer_ Stupid people are always the best at reasoning dumb decisions

@stelzner_n1150 Your logic is a bit off. If you survive to 75 your life expectancy is another 12 years
English

That not how it works. Tariff is not added on to MSRP. It’s added on to the wholesale cost. So if Nike import shoes that retail for $120 but the retailer gets them from Nike for $75 the tariff is on the $75. So with a 10% tariff the shoe goes up just $7.5 not $12. So about half what you belive it to be

@BellaBaddie__ Not hard to understand. Procreation and enjoy yourself along the way

@Mrs_ARockstar Well if your rent makes up 40 of you take home pay. You only need to make an additional 1.2% extra that year to keep rent at the same comparatively

@Teslaconomics Yeah like they did for Jack Ma? CCP won’t allow an “Elon Musk” to flourish there cause it gives that person too much power
English

If China had its own version of an Elon Musk, I bet they’d be backing him with everything they’ve got. They’d remove all obstacles, pour in as many resources, and line up the country behind a clear goal to win. And if that ever happened, the U.S.-China race wouldn’t even be close.
That’s why, whether people like him or not, we should recognize what we have right now.
Elon has helped put America back in the lead in areas where we would have never had a chance against China… like electric vehicles, reusable rockets, satellite internet, AI, robotics, advanced manufacturing. Without this kind of entrepreneur and relentless determination, it’s tough to say we’d be leading the way in any of these fields today.
You don’t have to agree with everything he says to see the impact. Vision at this scale is super rare. And the ability to execute on it is even rarer.
It’s just sad to see many Americans treat him like trash, when in reality, he’s a national treasure than we may never witness again.
English

You could also just do a local sales tax to cover those things… the problem is with property tax you force people to leave their homes if they can’t pay ten of thousands in yearly property tax. Also makes owning a home that much harder for young people. Why should we pay the government to live in our home?
English

Property tax is literally the only tax that makes intuitive sense.
A local tax based on the property you choose to live on that goes toward things such as roads, police, fire departments, etc. that are amenities directly connected to that particular property.
Meanwhile, the federal government just sends your federal income tax dollars to fund Israel and gay pride parties at the Department of Labor.
Of all the taxes, property tax is the least retarded and I’m tired of hearing boomers complain about it.

@Djeykarthik @nsinghal211 USA won’t be the next Japan. We are nation of immigrants. We will continue to have a growing population for many more years. We have innovation ingrained in our culture.
English

Global Power Shift! 🌍🔄
Africa → Next India (Youth boom, resources)
India → Next China (Mfg hub, 8% GDP)
China → Next US (Debt trap, aging pop)
USA → Next? JAPAN (Debt/GDP 130%+, innovation stall) 😱
Demographics + Debt = Destiny. India, let's dodge that trap! What's your 2050 bet? 🔥 #Geoeconomics #IndiaRising

@HangryDavid @GrantCardone Your argument for bitcoin is no different than using any type of cryptocurrency. Plus if the world ever goes to shit your bitcoin is useless. Gold has been used for currency for all recorded history. Why else would central banks be staking it
English

A million dollars in gold is hard to tote around. A million in bitcoin can be on your flash drive. Plus I can send it to another person at the speed of light with minimal fees. To send a million in gold takes a shit yon of effort. Gold has its place for wealth storage in a free market. Bitcoin along with gold and other PMs are the future. We need to get off a purely fiat monetary system. End the Fed.
English

@ARmastrangelo Cause right to free movement of people in America.
On a serious note go to almost any of these counties and you will find fairly large gringo population. Either digital nomads or retirees.
English

If that’s all America, then why don’t they stay in those parts of America?

bad bunny really pulled every single american flag, named every single country in the entire continent and said: all of this is america not only the united states

@freshdonut20 @ClayTravis The Super Bowl is an international event. People watch from all over the world. Also there are more native Spanish speakers than English.
English

@Fre_domFighter @ClayTravis 13 percent of US households speak English. It is idiotic to to appeal to have a Spanish half time
English

@JackPosobiec Plus yall just going to watch the superbowl halftime afterwards anyways cause that’s all people will be talking about.
English

@JackPosobiec Why wouldn’t you just watch the actual Super Bowl half time? Nobody gives a **** about Kid Rock. Having a sub culture based on political views is stupid. And I like Trump!
