It’s pretty funny to imagine 16 year old Ben Franklin shitposting, impersonating an old widow, and whining about women’s hoop skirts blocking traffic on the sidewalk.

glad to hear the bicameral mind is alive and well

The politicization of financial rails undermines the freedom to transact, the freedom in which all other freedoms are rooted.

Heard crazy stories about IRS so here's how taxes look in Poland:

(1) Our version of IRS calculates taxes for you.
(2) You check on their website if your taxes are correct. You can modify them, add some extra sources of income or tax breaks.
(3) If you don't modify taxes in 45 days, they automatically get accepted.

I dont think degen tipping would work if it actually deducted from your balance. that's the difference

The degen Cantillion Effect on Farcaster means that the strategy is:
"be close with the big tippers (degen printers)"
Same as elsewhere the strategy is:
"be close with DC ($ printer)"

People controlling the printers can't easily print to themselves, but can easily print to others in ways that benefit themselves.
