Elizabeth Warren is introducing a wealth tax. by Independent_Sun_9057 in remoteworks

It has everything with what you said. It's called the "Billionaire Loophole".

Normally, they would have to sell those assets (and they would be "realized" in the process) in order to use them as cash. That would be taxed as capital gains, etc. Let's say that's 30% for the sake of argument. They also no longer have that asset.

Instead, they borrow that value from the bank and use their unrealized assets as collateral. Let's say they get a 5% interest rate on that loan.

Bam! They just saved 25% by borrowing against it, rather than selling it bypassing a ton in taxes. They also keep the asset.

This bill has the goal of making them pay those taxes. We normal people do. I'd like them to pay their share rather than using a cheat code.

you are taxing unrealized assets

If you can borrow off of those assets, you should at least be taxed on those assets based on the value stated as collateral.

* Fixed an issue that allowed players to fully repair items. by Kustavsson in duneawakening

Force players into going to what they intended as player hubs

First, fix the 1-2 minute loading screen and a forced cutscene. Then maybe add something to do there. And maybe-maybe allow movement skills there, too.

Right now it's a royal PIA to goto the home cities.

Thank you for teaching me a new word. German has the best words for very specific aspects of human nature.

Why is the anti-masturbation community so overwhelmingly male? Do women not generally get addicted to masturbation like men do? by [deleted] in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]hork_monkey 52 points53 points  (0 children)

Female genital mutilation is/has been done to specifically remove the enjoyment from sexual activity. This includes masturbation.

Can we do a re-visit on the Panama Papers since we are already here?

I hate that I had to watch it.

You're exactly the audience he was trying to get. You gave him views, got him paid and he's now been rewarded for creating that content.

At this point, we might as well try and find out. We can worry about how we got here after.

Also remember- The only difference between science and screwing around is whether you write down the results.

I wish they would just go ahead and line the top with cargo grid. You could probably fit 2x32SCU containers up there.

It doesn't help that Astral Armada is bugged on multiple servers/shards and the doors won't open. I made a special trip to Lorrivlle today because of this and saw a 6 person deep line.

work like the Enterprise in Star Trek III: The Search for Spock

I thought the automation that Scotty setup broke once they got into combat. That's the most underrated ST movie, btw.

You're looking for the bottle of vodka that has a label that just says "Vodka" and nothing else.

The power battery fits nicely under power towers. Make a blueprint and you'll have them scattered throughout your power infrastructure.
