Capital gains taxes are a scam since the gain is usually due to inflation created by monetary system in the 1st place. Capital gains tax will die as bitcoin becomes the measure of value. I think Gov policy will be: Please spend your bitcoin freely and engage in economic activity within our borders to benefit our citizens.
I don’t want the USA to mine bitcoin. I want the USA to make sure our country is the best place in the world for our private citizens and corporations to mine and acquire bitcoin.
We had to cancel flights today because of the flight restrictions associated with President Biden’s visit to AZ. I appreciate him getting me some extra time off, but I’d rather have supported our workers. Trump and Biden both in AZ today, seems like a great opportunity to have their golf contest.
We had our kids cavities fixed unless dentist thought tooth would be out soon. They all went to a regular dental practice rather than pediatric dentist. Not a pediatric case, but my neighbor had a tooth infection, ignored it, and now is paralyzed from the infection. Never thought before of tooth problems being so close to spinal cord. If you leave it, I’d just make sure it’s not something that can turn into an infection.
Imagine thinking ideas are exclusive and it is the role of government to stop other people from using the ideas you put into public. That sounds more communist to me. If you don’t want other people to copy your ideas, it’s on you to keep them a trade secret. If patents and copyright weren’t a fake form of government intrusion, they’d never expire.
There is no such thing as intellectual property outside of stuff you keep secret. Once you put it out in public it is no longer property. It’s plagiarism when you claim to be the original creator of the exact thought and you’re not. Plagiarism is an academic/reputation/moral issue, not a criminal issue.
💯. If you put organized information out in the public domain it is no longer property. Property can be destroyed, information cannot and is thus something different. Don’t want someone using/copying your ideas….. Keep them secret.
I think we care about authorship/identity because we care about reputation/trustworthiness. The original organizer of good ideas will be who people seek out when they have new questions. People who copy (including AIs) will only be able to answer with summaries of already answered questions.
Makes sense. In that scenario yes I will dump BlackRock BTC for more of the good stuff. If BlackRock is in change, bitcoin will have failed and I’m going off grid.
