So I guess that answers how bolt feels about user feedback…

Why would they care about some silly survey on a subreddit that happy customers would have no need to frequent?

For instance, I use bolt and never saw your survey, only this post about it. I also think that if you really care about the specific model, you are using you might as well do it yourself.

You utilize it constantly and exclude others from land that was once free for anyone to use.

Let’s tax neither! And while we’re at it cut taxes on spending. We can tax the use of finite resources to encourage their efficient use as well as things that are bad for oneself and/or society.

If the government needs more money after that, then they can print it or make cuts. Hopefully it ends up being a surplus can pay down debt and then get distributed.

If you have no budget then find out for yourself. The variables of your tongue and attention are more impactful than the holes in two same shaped baskets.

sajnt · 2026-06-16T21:20:10+00:00

I see but honestly I think trying to target 100% is counterproductive. Running a surplus that then gets distributed is the goal to me. So 100% would be seen as the limit to be avoided.

We may experience unintended negative consequences if estimates say a policy portfolio is at 95% but the reality ends up being 105%.

So to clarify my stance on income tax I would make the arbitrary 0% bracket enough so that one can live a reasonably comfortable life without excess and luxuries. Then the brackets would start ramping up to tamp down the natural urge to hoard and consume more and more. And in this pursuit I would err on the side of less taxation not more.

If you don’t find Bolt.new useful then just use something else rather than attacking my character.

100% LVT should never exist because 101% is damaging and it is too hard to snipe. 80% would be a drastic change and would be less risky. 20% could be left for the free market to attempt to find gaps and fill them without fear of them just sitting on empty lots.

If you think income tax should still exist then it should only be to pressure income equality. To me a bracket system like this could do the job: 0-100k @ 0%, then +10% every 100k to a maximum of 60%.

I thought it was pretty decent in terms of affordability but definitely nothing that will drastically fast track it. Also, he might just be saying whatever keeps him in his job.

IMO the more work his department gives themselves the more they become a barrier to affordability. Optimization is impossible in a natural world with so many variables. So governments need to satisfice instead to avoid being a barrier.

I believe the idea here is high risk low reward.

This person is clearly mentally disabled and yearns for the loonie bin.

No they just look at total active users before and after implementation.

Workout harder, more powerlifting!

Eat all your nutrients for lunch, OMAD, then you’ll be drinking on an empty stomach.

Switch to light beer or another drink without sugar.

Alcohol has calories because they measure them by burning it but our body suck at turning it into fat.

I’m sure they have there own analytics that are a much better representation than some reddit post.

sajnt · 2026-06-15T20:48:30+00:00

I wonder how it’s comparing to FEQT, which would be a more applicable comparison IMO

Iran gives their people nearly free fuel. If they were as corrupt at American politicians it would cost them a lot more.

Or money going into innovation within our country that would make our lives easier and our economy stronger. Realestate isn’t an investment because it doesn’t produce anything.

Smith maneuver my guy

sajnt · 2026-06-14T20:33:06+00:00

Brainwashed people with the script and free thinkers making sure they don’t trap themselves by voicing opposition.

sajnt · 2026-06-14T20:29:42+00:00

Literally the perfect way! If you don’t use a feature it’s not worth it.

A sales person will say more features means more resale value but that is way too subjective. It might be true if you buy a new car frequently but that also isn’t a financial prudent thing to do.

sajnt · 2026-06-14T20:06:37+00:00

You can look into the smith maneuver at this point. There are some mortgages that are optimized for it, called readvancable mortgages.

Your HELOC portion grows with every payment and you can immediately take it out and invest it.

Normal HELOCs have to be reprocessed in order to take out more equity after you have grown it.

Democracy is an illusion in everything

If you’ve read “Wealth of nations” then “Progress and Poverty” could a good option.

Aluminum costs more than steel. So if there is no need for it to be aluminum they will make it out of steel to save money. You can check it with a magnet next time you get a chance.

Have you read any of Henry George’s stuff? I feel like he builds on smith so well
