Taxes are theft... or something like that. Basic economics tells us that it currently does NOT make very much business sense to start a business in the US.... today our senate is considering whether or not to leave the proposed plan for a drop to 20% or to make it 22% in order to allow for a larger credit for children. —————————————————— The important take away here is that change is very necessary and it isn’t about making the rich richer. It’s about making us competitive in the global market place. If we want more jobs and economic growth we MUST be competitively priced. —————————————————— #taxes #finance #economics #stockmarket #bitcoin #corporatetax #taxrate #business #businessowner #financialfreedom #competition #globaldaily

Remember when #bitcoin broke $7g? That was about a month ago... here we are. Are you still sitting on the side lines? Even if you aren’t planning on going all in at least get in the game. ———— Countries have bought in #japan - do a little research. This is a very finite resource and if you start projecting it as an actual currency used by countries.... one bitcoin is going to be a hell of a lot more then $11g... ————— IMHO (not certified or professional and is simply speculation - not advice) bitcoin is less of a cash substitute and more of a “savings account” substitute... it is a money cache substitute that is far safer from hackers and the like then your bank. It also eliminates the bank to a certain extent. On a world scale it still isn’t even close to mainstream. ——— #stillthebeginning #justgettingstarted #cryptocurrency #bitcoin #ethereum #litecoin #investing #gold #financialfreedom #finance #coinbase #bitcoinprice

A lot of people like to discuss whether or not our constitution is outdated. They question the ability of our fore fathers to understand the advances of modern civilization.... a perfect example, as you may have seen, is a commercial where a guy goes into his modern office with 50 cubicles and has a black powder rifle. He shoots off the first round and misses, everyone gets up and runs away while he is trying to reload... the point to be made is that the constitution or more specifically our 2nd amendment was based on a time when black powder was the top technology. That because guns today are more advanced we need to rethink our right to bare arms.... Well, other than the 100 of blatant things this overlooks when it comes to that debate.... someone should introduce to this bad boy. The Punt Gun! Was known to hit upwards of 50 birds at once. #knowyourhistory #2a #gunsdaily #instaguns #mettle #themettleforge #puntgun #blackpowder #warrior #manliness #oldschool #overkill #2ndamendment #gunright #pewpew

When tragedy strikes we must remain strong, vigilant and humble. Do not succumb to the fear they seek to deliver and never forget the innocent lives lost. We each play a small part in this world and you’re only option is to continue to do the best with what you have. #prayfornyc #nyc #philosophy #napoleonhill #fear #strength #vigilance #stateofmind #themettleforge
