Taxes screw over both the companies and the states they’re in.
Taxes didn’t build those big companies. They show up after the success. They sure as hell didn’t create Silicon Valley.
The sky-high taxes came later, once it was already killing it.
California basically turned its successful companies into hosts and started parasitically draining them for more and more cash, jacking up the rates year after year.
They forget the first rule of parasitism: don’t kill the host.
Companies only have so much tolerance before they say screw it and bail for another state with better deals and resources.
And that breaking point is a lot lower these days.

Many people (incorrectly) think Native American tribes lived in peace and harmony.
The noble savage myth is merely a myth.

@Mordie_Kai @Justjohnny2323 @TheAliceSmith Now you're offended and lashing out with insults. Go ahead and tell me how slavery has evolved. 😉
English

@GregoREYo10 @Justjohnny2323 @TheAliceSmith Actual history is all over the place. If history is too complicated for you, don't bother discussing politics, because good politics requires a knowledge of history.
Sorry it's too complicated. Maybe get off the internet and make some mudpies or go doorbell ditching.
English

@Mordie_Kai @Justjohnny2323 @TheAliceSmith Huh? Free markets, progressives, taxes and mass immigration now? You're allover the place. Simple premise: slavery with more steps. 😉
English

You know that without a free market economy, people would be "enslaved" to hunting and farming, and they'd often be poorer or _literally_ enslaved.
What's more, prior to Progressives and their mass immigration and high taxes, Americans could work at a gas station and afford to pay rent in a one-bedroom San Francisco apartment. That was also free market economics. Why was it not slavery then but it's slavery now?
It does suck now, thanks to MASSIVE increases in housing and healthcare. We ARE being robbed by mass immigration and corrupt government. But getting robbed IS slavery. Free market economics is not.

@SummerSnow1225 @Justjohnny2323 @TheAliceSmith Huh? Lazy and playing video games? 🤔 Not everyone is a farmer let alone have your own farm anymore... food has become abundant, at least in modern societies, and the same is happening with this concept of needing to "work" just to survive. 😉
English

@GregoREYo10 @Justjohnny2323 @TheAliceSmith Yes, people do have to work for a living either for someone or for themselves. Even a farmer who provides all his own food has to work his crops. Sorry if you want to be lazy and sit around playing video games.

@BackroadTruckin @wacka @Justjohnny2323 @TheAliceSmith Again, proving the point. Work or starve. Slavery. 😉
English

@GregoREYo10 @wacka @Justjohnny2323 @TheAliceSmith I like to eat, so yes, I'm OK with working. I also like to keep the fruits of my labor to take care of my family, and to the best of my abilities assist those actually in need. If you're just as capable as I am to work & care for your family and choose not to, y'all can starve.
English

@clio_closet @SteveBateson @Justjohnny2323 @TheAliceSmith Not the only, and not the end all. The concept of having to work to survive can and will be improved.
English

@GregoREYo10 @SteveBateson @Justjohnny2323 @TheAliceSmith A capitalistic economy is the ONLY system that allows a few slobs freedom from work. By virtue of its abundance. Which pays for welfare and other social programs
English

@GregoREYo10 @Justjohnny2323 @TheAliceSmith Exactly, this minority of Capitalists that don't work because, what? They created something that people want and benefit society. Rubbish!
If they don't want to work, yet be ultra rich, they should just climb the social ladder and burden people with bureaucracy, like communism!
English

@DaveJWordsworth @Justjohnny2323 @TheAliceSmith Who said everything given to you? All I've pointed out is the reality of the original statement: "Capitalism is just slavery with extra steps."
You also seem to be arguing as if there is only one alternative to it, which I disagree with.
English

@GregoREYo10 @Justjohnny2323 @TheAliceSmith Wasn't really a question but how would you find a system where you don't have to work and just have everything given to you? What are the government expecting in return?
English

@DaveJWordsworth @Justjohnny2323 @TheAliceSmith You gonna answer MY question now? 🤷🏼♂️
No one said "communism is better than capitalism!"
The comment was "capitalism is slavery with extra steps."
As others have said above, in either system, you don't work, you die.
English

@GregoREYo10 @Justjohnny2323 @TheAliceSmith Ever sat and spoken to someone who has lived under communism
?
English

@Unknown3rd55448 @Justjohnny2323 @TheAliceSmith Slaves receive basic sustenance to continue living. Wages buy sustenance. Work harder, more wages. More steps.
Both systems require workers, no?
English

@Justjohnny2323 @TheAliceSmith In this case, the "servant" is actually a wage or salary employee, employed by someone with more money, a production facility AND the ability to muster several employees to produce whatever the purpose of said facility is.
A slave receives no wages.
There's a big difference.
English

@Justjohnny2323 @TheAliceSmith No, you are describing Democrat fascism.
English

@Justjohnny2323 @TheAliceSmith Wrong! No one is forced to work anywhere they don’t choose to work. If you don’t like where, when, or how you’re working, then make a change. I bet slaves didn’t have that luxury.
