So you want to tax all companies a percent of their stock ownership every year? Good luck with that.

You’re falling intro a trollhill. The point is the ultra-wealthy pay very smart people to work out loopholes. If some internet retard can run around your ideas and keep you busy, a team of full time financial experts will have a field day. This is not an easy problem to solve. Pretending like it is leads to support for crappy subpar legislation that doesn’t work.

Lol have you not used o1/o3? They show the inner monologue too. Fun little pretend detail to keep you entertained while the model takes 30 seconds to respond.

Uh…yes it’s about the same, maybe slightly dumber than o3. Which is already mediocre.

I see Tiktok in the news, never downloaded it. Does that make me special?

I don’t get it. Why would DeepSeek supposedly get more downloads from the app store? It’s not like it’s any more interesting to consumers than other LLM apps. It was just notable for purportedly being cheaper to train. Something seems fishy.

My accounting team told me they would open more Panamanian shell companies for me, and the shares would get distributed across them. I’d retain full ownership, of course.

You’re thinking like one of the poors. Us ultra wealthy don’t get paid in dollars. We get paid in shares. And we don’t sell the shares, we take out long term low interest bank loans with the shares as collateral any time we absolutely need to use cash.

I am for it only because it helps avoid politicization of the armed forces. When the military self-selects recruits, you risk the organization biasing towards people with a particular worldview. It intrinsicially also leads to a military comprised of people who love the idea of being a “military person”.

It’s much more reassuring knowing your armed forces, the people with the big guns, are your neighbors, rather than strangers with a particular ideology or biased loyalties.
