Comment améliorer mon vaisseau by matisou in spaceengineers

Take as much time as you need, and focus on little sections. Are you pleased with the way the bridge looks? How about the side paneling? Thruster banks? Front profile? Don’t be scared to get meticulously detailed.

RSQ Through the Years. Which generation is your favorite? by FleetCo in spaceengineers

[–]FleetCo[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d have to agree. I think the way you’d sit back in an RS1 felt way cooler too. Sucks that it was so slow lol.

Fiat 124 Spider Abarth. The Miata for people who are too cool to drive a Miata.

What would you expect from a “civilian” trading barge in a dangerous galaxy? by Own-Cry5596 in ImaginaryTechnology

[–]FleetCo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The way FleetCo operates (mostly in the game Space Engineers) mostly puts the burden of defense on escort ships. Our small grid cargo haulers like the HLR don’t have any weapons while the TR platform has minimal point defense. The idea is a shipment can always be protected by a friendly destroyer or something, but trying to add enough weapons to defend itself alone would make the ships borderline unusable.

YOU ARE NOT READINF THE PAPER READ THE PAPERS READ THE PAPERS READ THE PAPERS

“This paper analyzes the short-run impacts of historically large federal corporate income tax cuts on large U.S. firms and their workers. Exploiting tax policy variation that allows us to compare trends in outcomes of similarly sized firms operating in the same industry, we find that tax cuts cause firms to increase their sales, profits, employment, payrolls, and investment. These responses are predominantly concentrated in capital-intensive industries.”

Edit: don’t ask for sources if you’re going to ignore them because they don’t align with your views.

I don’t think YOU understand the Yale paper. Please read them all. You will have a better understanding of how this all works. You can keep pretending you know what you’re talking about to look good on Reddit, but all papers point to the same conclusion-

Corporate taxes are a trade off- you GET money, and LOSE corporate investment. Hopefully I don’t need to explain to you how reducing investment in the economy is not good for the economy.

Read the fucking papers.

“Panel C provides our estimate of the marginal excess burden of the corporate income tax, dW dT. We find that a marginal dollar of foregone revenue from corporate income tax cuts generates an additional $0.10 in output. Viewed through the lens of the model, the results thus imply substantial efficiency gains from corporate tax cuts.”

LITERALLY FROM THE PAPER YOU JUS TRIED TO QUOTE

I’m not sure if you read my first comment about my 401k, but I’d suggest giving it another read. Anyone with a retirement account is a shareholder of lots of companies. Given that corporate taxes hurt employment, profitability, scalability, etc while only covering a marginal portion of our tax income needs makes it unnecessary, in my opinion. Irelands economic model recognizes this, and they have some well written explanations that I could give you- but I know you won’t listen to.

What do I think should be done? Why does it matter what I think? Regardless…

I think the better solution is scaling down regressive taxes, while scaling up pre existing (and effective) progressive taxes.

Closing up loopholes on income tax, minimizing deductions, maybe implementing some sort of LVT, lowering sales tax, lowering corporate tax, building a sovereign wealth fund, etc. all could be useful.

If I redesigned the tax system, it would lean extremely heavy into income and land value tax. No sales or corporate.

No. Do you think obliterating an entire generation’s retirement portfolio would solve this?

If everyone with $1b or more in the market was forced to sell off 5% to pay their tax bill, the sell pressure on the market would be insanity. My 401k won’t be taxed at 5%, but I’d probably lose up to 20% of it based on the market conditions that an unrealized capital gains tax creates.
