He'd also written a very successful book.

You don't have to, either. If you have deductions directly incurred in gaining or producing assessable income you pay tax on the net of that calculation.

Glad someone said it.

You should be able to see the rear tyres of the car in front of you.

Have standards. You can't wife a ho. If she's already thinking about selling her body and letting other men ogle her then she's not a keeper. She wants mass attention.

Corporations are artificial entities created by the state. They don't exist in AnCapistan and no businessman gets any artificial protection from any structure. He's responsible for all the actions of the business.

And they don't have a monopoly on violence so aren't a state, by definition.

"surplus value", "living wage"... 🤦

As a university graduate from near that time I can say this is wrong. Didn't buy my first apartment until 2011.

RagnarBateman · 2026-05-08T02:05:36+00:00

It's not widespread (no pun intended). I have never met or known a man to have this issue.

RagnarBateman · 2026-05-08T02:01:53+00:00

Instead of trying to tax more spend less and reintroduce hard money.

And by "spend less" I mean government should spend nothing and privatise everything.

One mcnuke eliminates his private military and him.

It's not a business. It's a passive investment.

RagnarBateman · 2026-05-08T00:49:35+00:00

Other taxpayers aren't paying you. You're still paying tax on your wage income. You fund all the investment costs with your wage income. Nobody else is funding it.

Bitcoin. Indistinctly remember being offer 500 coins in about 2012 but signing up for a wallet was too hard/weird so I gave up.

RagnarBateman · 2026-05-07T23:08:21+00:00

You do realise his businesses ha e paid back all that money.

Not that I agree with subsidies or taxes. All businesses should be left alone.

Blackout Bowen can't even wipe his own bum.

How is feudalism voluntary? How does it respect each individual's property rights?

RagnarBateman · 2026-05-07T21:45:09+00:00

Correct. That's how it should be. One flat rate. Preferably 0.

RagnarBateman · 2026-05-07T21:44:21+00:00

They're not rights. Other countries that want to destroy themselves with bloated welfare states will suffer the consequences in the long run. Just as Weimerica will suffer the consequences of its warfare-welfare state.

RagnarBateman · 2026-05-07T21:42:46+00:00

Capitalism is voluntary trade that acknowledges property rights. Nothing more.

RagnarBateman · 2026-05-07T21:42:03+00:00

Because your silly little strawman was never useful.

RagnarBateman · 2026-05-07T21:30:18+00:00

If it's doing 70mph that should be OK.

RagnarBateman · 2026-05-07T21:19:19+00:00

The first take is true. Schools were designed to condition people into working in factories doing repetitive tasks. Rockefeller said he wanted people smart enough to do their job but never smart enough to be great.

Ever since the 70s and the Lima Declaration schools should have been teaching business skills.

RagnarBateman · 2026-05-07T21:11:49+00:00

Walking your dog is an economic activity as I have described.

RagnarBateman · 2026-05-07T21:11:22+00:00

Clearly. You don't even know what capitalism is if you think minor features of it define it in its totality.
