  • The issue afaik is that Jeff bezos’s $200B is in assets like stocks, and the buy borrow die strategy of getting loans using assets as collateral lets rich people spend money without actually cashing in said assets which would trigger capital gains taxes. Idk how to stop this prevalent strategy but between that and the corporate tax system ignoring money that goes back into the company letting corporations invest their profits to ignore taxes that’s why so few taxes are collected on those groups. Feel free to correct anything inaccurate.














  • I don’t have any stake in this I just come here for funny memes but half of the companies referenced here are losing money and are either burning VC funds or are a tax write-off. Snapchat, twitch, X, bluesky, and ChatGPT are all unsustainable, and Google only makes money because they own the ad network most of the internet uses.

    Maybe it’s a meta-commentary and I got baited who knows. I hope they un-paywall the comics.
