This is my conversational account. For my work follow @ribbonfarm, @breaking_smart, @artofgig. Tweets are 90% vacuous views, apathetically held. Mediocritopian.

      @fnxTX @vgr I agree with all that, but it's clear that capital is still doing most of the forging reality. and reaping most of the profits.

      @uriahz @vgr Not all treasure is silver and gold. Most isn't. Rockefeller's legacy is the world itself, not his pocketbook.

      @uriahz @vgr THAT'S profit. A more efficient, fair, happy world. Self-driving cars reap dividends that no monetary capital ever can.

      @uriahz @vgr Money is LITERALLY the ATP of the macroscopic world. It's a tool. A fuel for building. A cache is fine; hoarding ATP is folly

      @fnxTX @vgr I wouldn't have expected you to argue for tax policies that soak the idle rich to promote growth, but yeah, that sounds great.

      @uriahz @vgr I'm not for taxes at all lol but my details of my ideal method for social enforcement won't fit here. It'll happen eventually.

      @uriahz @vgr Add for the idle rich, of which there are really few, they'll figure it out. Or find themselves in the future's middle class.

      @fnxTX @vgr Or just pay someone to figure it out, as they've always done. There's more of them every year, due to way low cap gains taxes.
