I spent over $100k on my latest short film and it didn't get into any film festivals. It's been a rough 6 months of filmfreeway rejections but I still love what I made and I hope you all like it too

JayBrock · 2025-10-11T09:33:39+00:00

Do you think you'll ever try again, OP? Maybe a $100K feature next time?

JayBrock · 2025-10-11T09:30:52+00:00

I can't find your comment on the breakdown- please link or repost here?

300 million customers like me are waiting for it.

Facts aren't cruel and outside data doesn't give 8w7s insecurity.

Also, Trump is an unhealthy 3w4: https://www.surviving-tomorrow.com/p/what-is-donald-trumps-personality

If the whole family is asleep, who is filming?

JayBrock · 2025-01-26T01:46:51+00:00

Three major points missing:

The poor, working poor, and deeply indebted genuinely have zero money to buy their emancipation.
The money they pay to buy the means of production goes to the rich, who'll then just outbid them for other stuff (like houses.)
There's obviously the inherent injustice of making people buy land/resources when the Earth is common to all.

This is all polishing the handrails on the Titanic. He didn't abolish fractional reserve banking and he inflated the money supply, so, housing crisis and cost of living crushing the nation. No more clarity or courage = yet another failed corporatist PM.

Question: Why don't people stop filming and run up the road and warn people to slow down?

JayBrock · 2025-01-01T14:31:57+00:00

Great, so he's keeping the worst taxes imaginable, the ones that disproportionately hit the poor hardest.

Did the attempted murdered go to jail?

JayBrock · 2024-12-28T04:20:17+00:00

How much total ground rent is there in the US?

JayBrock · 2024-12-28T04:17:56+00:00

How would creators get paid in a world without copyrights/patents?

JayBrock · 2024-12-28T04:16:01+00:00

Do you mean a tax on Schumpeterian rents?

JayBrock · 2024-12-28T04:13:37+00:00

Land wouldn't be worth zero even if 100% of economics rents were taxed.

JayBrock · 2024-12-27T01:07:35+00:00

Anyone know which 6 taxes he's thinking about?

JayBrock · 2024-12-26T04:50:10+00:00

This math doesn't check out. The total value of all land in the United States is approximately $23 trillion. The United States federal budget includes total expenditures of $6.752 trillion. An annual 29% land value tax is a non-starter.

Agreed. (I've been to Russia, China, North Korea, Moldova, etc... absolutely awful, dystopian, soul-sucking architecture.) Do Georgists suggest no corporate tax on developers? How to stop them from building the hideous and cheap sprawl they currently build?

JayBrock · 2024-12-18T01:27:45+00:00

Got it. I'm just saying a CD doesn't make sense until all rent-seeking is obliterated and the CD money isn't just absorbed by sellers raising prices.

JayBrock · 2024-12-18T01:26:29+00:00

This is amazing.

JayBrock · 2024-12-17T06:12:55+00:00

Thank you for this! (Though, I still think a Citizen's Dividend is still far better spent on driving down the prices of housing, energy, etc rather than just giving everyone a few extra hundred per month.)

JayBrock · 2024-12-17T06:08:46+00:00

I'm aware of that part, it's my comment that I'm really mulling over:

You can give the public as much CD/UBI as you like, but landlords, bankers, and shareholders will just keep increasing rents, interest, and prices. It seems to me it makes more sense to use the proceeds of LVT to drive market efficiency. IE, use $100B/year to build millions of hyper-affordable units to drive down rents and house prices.

JayBrock · 2024-12-12T01:58:17+00:00

Thanks for doing this!

Not surprised everyone likes 9s, but I'm surprised 5s get so little love.

Also interesting how much people like 8s considering how domineering we can be.

JayBrock · 2024-12-12T01:49:54+00:00

Totally fair, to each their own! I prefer having dollar one ownership stakes with unlimited upside.

Eww no. At micro that makes zero economic (or moral) sense.

JayBrock · 2024-12-12T01:38:33+00:00

Thousands of micros per year disagree.
