The ballooning government control over our lives, our bodies, and our property is really freaking me out, and I feel helpless because the same government has made it extraordinarily difficult to find any escape. How do you handle this? What do you do?

The increase in capital gains won’t affect you unless you’re clearing over $1M/yr, marginal rate would still be historically low, & money printing leading to inflation is dumb to be worried abt unless that money isn’t being deleted by taxation. Study MMT: amazon.com/dp/1541736184/

Why would it be taken away, are bank mortgage payments being defaulted on or something? If we’re comparing taxation with having your home forcefully taken away then that is an extremely poor metaphor.
