It’s a publicly traded company; no competent person would buy in at the absurdly overinflated stock price that exists now. Because a competent person would recognize that Tesla having a market cap over 50% higher than Toyota’s is completely fucked and there is no way in hell anyone could make Tesla actually worth what it’s trading at. A competent person would also recognize that Tesla’s ridiculous valuation is because of the shameless lies of hype merchant and snake oil salesman Elon Musk who, if you purchase the company from him, will no longer be around to trick sad losers into believing his laughable promises about self-driving, or robots, or AI, or whatever the hype cycle brings next.

You’re not really talking about higher taxes, you’re talking about reworking the corporate tax system. As things stand now higher taxes would encourage more of this sort of behavior, not less.
Corporations only pay taxes on profits, so money spent on business activities, re-invested back into the company, paid to employees, etc. is not taxed. In this system, taxes are kind of a penalty paid for taking money out of the business; the higher taxes are the less incentivized profit-taking is.
If your company made $100 million in profits at a 20% tax rate you get to take home $80 million as opposed to re-investing $100 million back in the company and not paying any taxes, so the incentive to re-invest isn’t very high. But if your company made $100 million in profits at a 40% tax rate now you can only take home $60 million as opposed to re-investing $100 million, which becomes a much better value proposition on re-investment.

It’s not a biological warfare lab, it’s a research lab and having a coronavirus research lab in the place where coronaviruses originate is the most obvious fucking thing in the world.
I imagine you must think all of the earthquake research labs in California cause earthquakes. And Japan’s tsunami research labs cause tsunamis. And the Ebola research labs in Africa cause Ebola.
It’s completely absurd that he’s saying this as an anti-bot measure. The bots exist because they generate revenue for the scumbags behind them, a small fee is just going to be part of doing business for them. He’s not trying to stop bots, he’s trying to monetize them and use them as an excuse to charge everyone. “The bot problem” will never be fixed and will be used as an excuse for every anti-user measure they put forward.
“The southern border will be directly in the path of totality today when the moon covers the sun for nearly four minutes.” The eclipse, co-anchor Bill Hemmer then added, represents “a real opportunity for smugglers and cartels and migrants to come right in.”
This is how stupid Fox News knows their audience to be.
[Why isn’t Biden blundering right into the GOP traps and playing their game on their schedule?]
Who speaks like this?
That’s your main take-away from this article? Criticizing an African-American for using some African-American Vernacular English?

Gee, I wonder what this site is. Let’s just search for “Ukraine” and see what we get:
Oh, it’s a Kremlin propaganda outlet. Thanks for sharing.
