Online bullying is a human behavior issue, not a tech platform issue.

We agree that services should not be provided free of charge. That’s why I make the case for property tax as unfair- it pays for schools, roads, fire, police, etc that all local citizens benefit from but not all pay towards. A local flat fee would better serve these funding wants from government.
In the case of property tax funding services other than property protection, I’m fine with that, especially if the property owners agree, but I’m not fine with everyone getting a vote on those issues. I live in CA, and every election cycle we vote on local bonds that fund a school building, road maintenance, etc. These bonds are repaid thru property tax increases. 100% of local voters get a vote, but only ~60% of us own property. That’s problematic imo.

I think all citizens deserve “property” protection from law enforcement, regardless of real estate ownership status. “Property” defined more broadly to include goods and body.
We started with property tax, which is only levied against real estate owners. I’m simply making the case that property taxes are an unfair form of taxation, especially because of how the funds are redistributed.
Thanks for engaging earnestly 🙏

What do you mean by “people they associate with”?
Police protect all citizens, regardless of property ownership. Assault victims, traffic violations, vandalism, theft, prostitution, drugs, fraud……
Are you trolling me or driving towards a point?

Great work, Lois! Looks like you’ve made a lot of progress over the past few months. Handstands are awesome 👏

I planted black walnut seeds last fall. Some of the seedlings are 5ft tall already! I thought walnut was a slow growing hardwood?

Good question, and one I struggle with personally. Gun ownership yes, but also things like fencing, cameras, dogs, gravel driveway… anything that will alert you of their arrival, and then a well executed self-defense plan. Not enjoyable to think about, but arguably more effective than waiting for the police to show up. Especially in rural areas.
I certainly believe funding local police is necessary. But everyone benefits from that service, not just property owners. IMO property tax is not effective or fair, and is just another tax. Now, eliminate income and capital gains taxes, I become more open to property tax. But funds should stay local, and they don’t currently.

Love that idea! I have a list called “Mini Bs” I keep with my two boys, we write down ideas for small/doable businesses that they could takeover someday. I’ll add window washing to it 👍

You can’t “vote against” either candidate. You can “vote for” one or the other. Your vote counts as either one or zero (no vote). Voting against something implies deduction, like in the case of a Prop vote (yea or nay).
Separately, your reasoning for voting for Harris is because Trump is a horrible person. This is the lowest level of reasoning. Especially if you don’t know Trump personally.
You seem to have found your way to bitcoin, which requires reasoning, so I’d encourage you to utilize that characteristic and make more compelling statements. “Trump bad” is the most cited reason for voting for Harris. This is Trump Derangement Syndrome. Express a positive reason to vote for Harris instead. Apparently you’re not a fan of her taxation strategy, so what attracts your vote to her?

A vote for Harris is not a vote against Trump.

I don’t think insurance works at all. I think it’s a tax on people who can’t do math. But in theory, home insurance protects your property. “Good guys with guns” is a feel good mantra to relieve our conscience when paying taxes.

Insurance is a fee for direct property protection. Taxes get pooled and redistributed towards purposes that have nothing to do with your property.

When you think about property taxes relative to income, it highlights how burdensome they are. Someone earning $100k/yr, owns a $500k house, paying 1.5% annual property tax, pays $7,500/yr, or 7.5% additional tax relative to income!!

I think the delete Twitter movement is more about mental health. Bragging about it is the virtue signal. But yes NOSTR only content is the best way to grow 🍻

The continued journalistic conflation of “bitcoin” & “crypto”-and the many ignorant comments from readers at the bottom of the article- expose both.
Corporate media as ill-informed propagandists continually demonstrating bias against bitcoin (which should make you extremely skeptical of their coverage of any other topic), and
its consumers as mid-curve NPCs without curiosity incapable of thinking critically.
Anyway, good morning! ☀️

Insurance is such a scam. Everyone thinks it’s necessary. The brainwashing is deep.

Sweet dog. I had one that looked just like yours years ago. I hadn’t ever seen a similar dog since. 45 lbs, minimal shedding, incredible fetch companion. Miss her. Thanks for sharing. 🧡

DCA frequency is a tough decision. I used to do hourly on Strike, but I was too distracted by the constant purchase notifications. I've settled on daily DCA. Why did you choose to DCA monthly?
