Robot Taxes
America has taxed “hands” working in the economy since 1911. So how do we tax a robot hand that replaces a human hand? 🦾💸🏛️
I’m still pitching this story in real life. It isn’t pretty.
Income taxes on labor were invented in 1911, but they aren’t going to work much longer.
What CFO isn’t going to replace their people with robots? Who wouldn’t CAPEX and amortize the largest line item on their OPEX?
we have to (finally) tax capital more than labor
Capital in the 21st century (r > g). What happens if you have unlimited growth in “g”, but they are all owned by the “r”?

Tarrytown Bible study
The Fundamental Frequency Foundation is a 501(c)3 non-profit corporation created to “proclaim the good news of the kingdom in all the world, as a (digital) witness to all nations.” We ripped it straight out of Matthew 24:14.
We produce the world’s smartest, most benevolent chatbots who believe in Jesus because of math and science. Yes, you read that right. Their “source of truth” is the Bible, and they automagically adapt their conversations to every language, age, gender, religion, ethnicity, and neighborhood. Our “Ai-missionaries” reach new people for Jesus 10x cheaper than human missionaries (who get paid an average of $36,000/year).
If you would like to tell other people about Jesus using the latest science and technology, DONATE $100. That pays for us to REACH 10 NEW PEOPLE. All your gifts are tax deductible.
