I am an average degenerate of above-average degeneracy. My links: https://redlegion.org/about/

Not at all factual, see here: individual tax liability accounts for around 8% of GDP while corporate tax liability has fallen to 2%.

The only thing outsized here is us getting fucked because we don't have lobbyists representing us.

Pragmatism is a lost art.

I just wish corporations and billionaires would carry more of the tax burden.

Wish taxes would go away? You'll have more luck wishing for a unicorn. At least, the odds are better anyway.

Fun fact: since the start of the Ukraine invasion about 90% of the projects I've been working on have been ITAR. It's clearly boosting parts of our economy to support Ukraine. I imagine they're going to be indebted to us for a long time, kinda like parts of Europe after WWII.

The human brain has evolved to make connections and will do so whether the connections are real or perceived. It's fascinating, really. I love it.

Excellent Android app that purges exif data, resizes, rotates, crops, and converts images automatically and seamlessly through multiple facilities like "share" or just file browsing. I fucking love this tool.

I still can't believe people use tether. Worst "stablecoin" and probably just the worst half-assed attempt at crypto ever.

I want to drop test the worldcoin orb.

You know, same. I'd be better off if I could shut my huge fucking mouth.

Transparency only benefits those not subject to it, like the people at the very top. Even if Bitcoin were the defacto standard, the people at the top would move all of it with layer two solutions that protect them while everyone else is expected to be "honest" or "transparent". We're not protected by shit. Ever. Because every retarded one of us would take the bribe to shut the fuck up because we weren't born into means like that.
