If they could get incredibly good terms, would you advise a startup to raise a big round for the war chest without specific use for the money, ala Slack?
This is the sort of thing that goes wrong when the impulse to tax precedes the project that the money's needed for.

Depends on the startup. Maybe if it's one that might have unforeseen expenses. But I'm not a fan of this idea generally.

Dems keep talking about money, taxes, how to get more money into people’s pockets vs billionaires. I get that. But it comes across superficial. Makes people look like money. Republicans have a much deeper message, much tighter community.

Republicans certainly have a tighter community, and a simpler message. In the 30s their simple message was that taxation to give people a guaranteed retirement was socialist. In the 60s it was that medicare was socialist. Not much different now

There is no right time to decide when to tax or how much. It’s not a technical problem, despite the the engineer/tinkerer’s utopian fantasies. No bureaucrat or politician can magically discover all the tacit knowledge embedded in a society to allocate resources appropriately.
