Land is land. We don’t get any more. Some land is inherently more valuable than other. We should be disincentivizing ownership of land unless it’s being cultivated or contributing in some way.

By saying that farms don’t pay property tax, we’re creating an avenue for billionaires to create “farms” and skirt taxes.

Instead what we should be doing is guaranteeing that crops will sell. Pay the property tax, use the land, and if your harvest fails at market, then the government covers the gap. But not before. I’m even cool with the government buying the seed and feed. That’s all renewable and contributes to a bountiful harvest. Having taxes to pay on the value of the land encourages it’s use, and pushes the wealthy billionaires away from wanting to own it just cuz. They’ll naturally look for the least valuable land if they just want a big ass estate. Who cares if they build a mansion on a pile of worthless rock?

If you’re retired or disabled, you’re not working a farm.

If you are working a farm, then you should be paying taxes anyway.

You realize there are literally dozens of examples of dense urban environments flooded with small private businesses right?

If that was satire, it was incredibly well done. If it’s red sincere, it’s a great example of why property taxes should still apply at a certain point, and that point should be very narrow.

at the primary residence up to .25 acres. Anything more than that should be taxed as normal. Credits should be non transferrable, as in if you’re renting your landlord shouldn’t be able to claim you for tax exempt status.

I would like to contribute labor to developing a discord alternative.

I also don’t know shit about fuck. Is this not something that can be made open source?

The car he’s reviewing does not exist. He has some technical specs and a few renders to review.

I feel no regrets for anyone that takes a stall next to me and dares to stay on the phone.

They’re gonna know what you’re doing, and you’re going to know what I’m doing. Loudly.

Could you imagine the talent pool the most profitable companies would have if all net profits over X billion dollars were automatically redistributed to it’s labor force? Suddenly the wealthiest middle class on earth would be in the US until then somehow clawed that money back.

I WISH I KNEW

That’s weird because Lockheed makes an oil alarm.

What prevents a mind from being uploaded, and continuing to exist in meat space?

A clone is closer to giving birth than transporting yourself. Even if you only cloned your consciousness. That’s a new being, and no longer “you.”
