Number one: In 1945, corporations paid 50 percent of federal taxes. Now they pay about 5 percent. Number two: in 1900, 90 percent of Americans were self-employed; now it’s about time for making a time machine and going back to 1933.
You have to go further back i afraid, illegal laws and taxes came quite soon after US got independence, yes it was more ok than most of the world, but look it now! tea tax was microscopic and two digit tax numbers were unheard, today both parents work full time and get 2.5 times less than, before female vote and lavish social programs with extreme taxes. US is no more, its DEAD!
If you can tell something's illegal these days, you should be grateful. Often it's "nobody really knows if it's legal and so far nobody was willing to find out" or "technically everything we do is illegal but nobody cares and it's totally tolerated until someone we don't like does it".
Where I live, as a sport marksman you can conceal-carry anywhere except judgehouse, but for some reason, it's illegal to have full magazines on you in public transit. Nobody is enforcing this, because frankly speaking, it's retarded, people just take the magazine out of the gun and keep it in a pocket, but on paper, it is still illegal, because changing it is apparetly beyond our legislating bodies. Bureocracy is going to be the death of us.
This stuff is even more rage inducing when you see all of the things large meat processing operations are allowed to do. I bought a steak the other day and realized that it wasn’t a piece of meat but several small pieces of meat literally GLUED together. They are allowed to use GLUE to trick you into buying something other than what you thought you were buying, but god forbid an actual person sells you a good piece of meat without a loicense.
The license is to prevent the spread of disease, sonce regular people can't check the meat as easily and such. As long as the animal isn't sick, the meat ain't rotting and they do not torture the animal too much, it's a free-for-all in those meat plants.
@@MizantropMan Yeah because butchering your own meat was only done by regular people for 6500 years with great success. Meat processing plants do almost nothing except visual inspection to make sure your meat is not contaminated. It's not regular people that are the problem. Regular people have common sense and know not to eat a cow that was infested with worms, or to give that meat to their neighbor. The problem is greedy pieces of shit behind closed doors at the little management office next to the meat processing facility, who would gladly sell you poisonous meat to grow their company 3%, and who pass laws to keep a regular guy from selling chickens to his neighbor (which again, has been the basic foundation of civilization for 6500 years).
When you're letting steak make you rage. You need Jesus. Forgive those who've wronged you. Don't hold on to the bitterness in you're heart. Forgive not for them but for yourself.
I've been saying this for years: think about how weird and unnatural we are. You now aren't allowed to do any of the things that are part of your most basic instincts. It's not strange that there are so many wayward young people these days, when human nature is regulated against. Most people don't know how to grow or find food, cure what ails us, many of us don't know how to defend ourselves, how to build shelter, how to find answers to basic problems on our own without having some book or institution tell us the "designated solution". In fact, if you try, you will be told that you are trespassing or otherwise breaking the law. This is what many a people around the world meant when they said "they are taking our land". It's kind of ironic how America was born out of the settlers' desire to escape the system, and now the system is more restrictive than ever. I shudder to think what will happen when AI is put to work to regulate people.
What a bunch of utter rubbish. People have always told each other how to do things better. That's precisely what's our advantage over other animals. If you want, you can live like an animal and never listen to what anyone is telling you and "find food" by digging in the ground.
@@MrCmon113 We always think we're better than those stupid animals until something unexpected happens. Then we are forced to admit that we are indeed animals.

That reminds me of how Walmart lobbied for increasing the minimum wage. I am guessing their logic behind that is that it will hurt us, but it will hurt our competition a whole lot more. Very sad.
Hurt them? Basically the same as having an advertising budget, or an army of lawyers on call at all times. Paying millions, to wipe out your competition, is a drop in the bucket, at their level. Also, keep in mind, our minimum wage in the 50s, 60s, and 70s was much better than today, as we had strong money. They pulled the greatest scam ever, when they devalued the money.
There was actually a recent case of a wholesaler coming out in support of a higher minimum wage and people lauded him as a hero, if he defends a higher wage it means Walmart has no excuse for paying such low wages! Nevermind that he employs less people per store than any Walmart and his employees are often more qualified than retail workers so he won't be affected by minimum wage laws as much as Walmart. (we could also get into the discussion that Walmart is essentially subsidized by the government but that's another topic in itself)
Very interesting. I live in Russia, and lots of people are starting to go to rural areas for living, growing own foods, living off-grid and eventually make some money fro that by selling stuff to city dwellers and inviting them to come to these farms and experience this eco lifestyle. And the facts that you've mentioned about the regulations and amusement park taxation etc, this is actually starting to gain traction here in Russia, and what you've said actually helped me to see where it's all going to, and it's kind of really triggering, just as you said, even I'm not an American, but Russian. Thanks for the exposure, Luke! Greatly appeciate! Good luck, man!

I worked as a manager in a factory egg farm. We allowed allowed local agriculture classes to make walk through visits. It turned into a major problem with FDA because of contamination. Jeez eggs are in shells how do visitors contaminate them. The weirdness of some of the laws is a pain.
I am not very familiar with agriculture, but isn't the problem that the chicken may get sick? It is quite common to have a lot of them in small spaces so deceases can spread very quickly. Especially since the food quality is usually not very high and is chosen for quick weight gain which makes the chicken more susceptible to infections. Correct me if I'm wrong.
@@zuiop9993 I was in the industry almost ten years. No diseases, it it very important to maintain a clean environment and be sure diets and inoculations are correct.

As somebody who grew up on a poor farm I know exactly what you mean but I also know it's more difficult in USA than it is in Canada where I am from (but it's still pretty bad.) The problem is that America's Agriculture Department is insanely huge compared to other countries, it's why Monsanto has so much power. I even suspect USA treats their Agricultural Department as an extension of their Defense Department. You would think USA would not have this problem considering how much autonomy every state has but nope, it's all a waste.
@Toask For me "poor" was more relative to everyone else where I lived. I know what you mean based off of other experiences I heard of but my Dad still needed to work another job on top of his farm to sustain his family. And like I said, we still considered poor relative to everyone else. If my Dad was completely relying on his own farm with beef, I'd say we would have been "poor poor". There's a TH-camr named Greg Judy who is mostly about beef farming and it bothers him that it's common for small farmers to get another job (or two) just to maintain a normal income. These people were doing an important job for society, heck, the most important job, making food and they barely get by. If my Dad could make one change in his early life of coming to Canada it would be to avoid beef and go primarily into grains. He would have had a much easier time, especially if you consider the land prices back then in the early 80s.
A lot of government regulations and taxes are designed to keep us dependent on employment. In my country (and many others), the income tax rate spikes when you start earning a bit more than what would buy you a reasonable life. Meaning that you have to earn an enormous sum of money to have some left over to save so that you are not dependent on employment income before retirement.
Peak communism. Utterly fail to price gouge and billionaires and corpos since their the only class that can avoid these things. Realize you need results, so you end up taxing the middle class even more. Fuck poor people, and fuck welfare leeches. If they want to remain homeless tweakers and drug addicts, let them be. Why do I gotta suffer because of their own incompetence. I just wanna live the lifestyle my parents got. Why the fuck is my taxes going towards these clowns. And thats on the rare case it actually does too, cus half the time it just goes to israel
Isn’t this true for any type of business? My family had started a small restaurant that ultimately failed and it was like everything was there to fuck you over. You quickly realize if you don’t do illegal things, there’s just no way to succeed. Its despairing to see how the big guys can get away with so much while the small family business are in constant threat of inspectors ruining you.
Thats why when a commie says "HOLD MUH CORPO ACCOUNTABLE!!!!!!!! TAX THEM!!!!", their just being litteral tools and NPC's lmfao. When Biden hired those 80k IRS agents, he didnt hire them to go after the 1%, or the billionaires, or the corporations. He hired them to go after the middle class independent contractors who were forced to underreport on certain things to stay legal. Commies are usually the ultra-rich themselves, and seldom have any life experience doing the shit that regular people do. Hasan type people
This reminds me very much of music collections agencies in Australia. Over the last few years, I enquired about starting an internet radio station -- legally. The music collection agencies will charge you a quarterly fee based on your total quarterly revenue, but the fee starts from $0 revenue (the first bracket is $0 - $5000). So, what's the fee if you don't yet have any listeners and as such no revenue? Oh, just $4400 per year, and it goes up from there as you build your audience and subsequently earn more revenue. Not so bad once you have a large audience and able to charge for advertising, but the barriers of entry are huge.
@@george89047 This bothers me so much. I heard there was a class action lawsuit against Monsanto in Brazil though. I wish our Canadian farmers would do the same. I mean, they try but it never happens. I know Monsanto bribed some of the bigger Canadian farmers to keep their mouths shut. As far as I see, this business practice will not last very long.
George Biotechnologist here, not quite. A lot of the patents regarding GMO's have expired already, like about 300 expired pattents singe 2016. BT-corn? Patent expired; The technology to make virtually any grain BT? Expired; Roundup-ready soy? Patent expired; The base technology to make GMOs using A. tumefacensis? Expired; The technology to make any seed Glyphosate resistant? Expired. Depending on how rigid are the regulations on crops where you live, you could set up a bio-hacking lab and make your own.
@@iluan_ Deep lore. But most people don't know all these details and (rightfully) become very nervous when they start getting letters from super-powerful companies who effectively own some governments have big teams of lawyers to boot. Even if no laws have been broken, arguing this in an open courtroom can cost thousands or tens or hundreds of thousands. I understand that there have been instances where there have been patent-based lawsuits over wind-pollinated crops, at least in past, since it's possible to legally collect samples for genetic testing from some roadsides. Dunno if those have tapered off yet or not. The arrangement reminds me of the "troll patent" firms which file for generic IT-related patents and then they sue others when they come out with similar software/technologies/infrastructure/whatever. They are often successful because most judges are Boomers and most legal systems are not designed to cope with legislating things like software (see: Congress asks Mark Zuckerberg ignorant questions, Seasons 1 and 2)

This is not a revelation. It hasn’t been for at least 150 years. This is how contemporary capitalism works. Big corporations have the state under their heel, force through any laws, regulations etc to stifle the competition. Or, if the competitor wants to survive, make him pay through the nose. It’s called monopoly. The most refined way of exploitation.
You are lucky and don't know it. In Germany everything is more overregulated than in the US. In Germany the government forces you to have a health insurance and for everything you want to do you need a insurance. You also need permissions for everything, e.g. you are not allowed to renovate your house or flat, you need to get a permission from the government for everything you want to do.
It's exactly the same in the US. Penalties for not having health insurance, can't drive without auto insurance, can't remodel without the right permits, etc.
@6:30 this is why the tax code keeps getting more and more complex. The more complicated it gets, the playing field is shifted. Large corporations that can hire teams of expensive tax attorneys and creative accountants can survive in a taxation environment where smaller businesses struggle to stay open. As in industry, finance, tech, same goes for farming!
You sell a house you pay taxes, you buy a house you pay taxes, you own a house you pay taxes, you will the house your son pays taxes. So in your lifetime you basically give a house for free to the goverment just for the privilege of paying and having somewhere to live. And that's just for having a house.

Mother-in-law runs her small daycare out of her home. She doesn't need a license for 4 kids, but believes all daycare providers should. She learns later that if she loses her license, she'll no longer be able to even have the 4 kids. Local inspector is a POS and hits her with every small violation possible. Online requirements are most of them, because the online system doesn't work and she can't take the tests. She's talked to half the state government, and no one is beholden to anyone else or wants to help. Her partner gets cancer, and can't stay with her because license would require him to be a resident. If he's a resident, she'll lose her Medicare. She provides a vastly greater service to these kids than larger institutional daycare, but the state heavily favors them. They also completely turn a blind eye to anyone who doesn't pursue a license, while these have a history of dubious practices. They really doesn't give a crap about childrens' well-being. It's all about making administrative jobs and having an unearned sense of power.
In 2015, the EU made patents on seeds legal. Before that, vegetable and fruit seeds were open source in the sense that anyone could make a cross between seeds creating innovation throughout the agriculture sector. Instead, companies like Monsanto and Syngenta are patenting lots of seed breeds that could for example be resistant against certain plagues or pesticide poisons (Monsanto also makes pesticide poisons btw). Farmers now have to buy their seeds at the big corporations for a higher price or risk their harvest. They also don't replant their own seeds anymore, since the big corporations could sue them for using patented seeds, even if they just find slight signs of their patented seeds.
Anyone surprised that farmers have also been "think of the children'd" to death? Although like any industry, the worst dregs have brought down hyper regulation on everyone else with their evil deeds.
The whole plebbit&4pleb-tier idea of "let's develop our gubbamint according to science and engineering xD" comes from a fundamental lack of understanding about how engineering and science are done in the real world.

I worked for a while in Pharma, making sure the machines operated the way they were designed to. In the beginning I was stunned by the amount of time and paperwork needed just to clear one machine. I asked a more experienced colleague about this; how is it that a machine that costs maybe 500,000 to manufacture can cost up to 1,000,000 to validate? Well, he told me, that's the idea, to make meeting the regulations so expensive that only the big corporations can afford it.
"after having thus taken each individual one by one into its powerful hands, and having molded him as it pleases, the sovereign power extends its arms over the entire society; it covers the surface of society with a network of small, complicated, minute, and uniform rules, which the most original minds and the most vigorous souls cannot break through to go beyond the crowd; it does not break wills, but it softens them, bends them and directs them; it rarely forces action, but it constantly opposes your acting; it does not destroy, it prevents birth; it does not tyrannize, it hinders, it represses, it enervates, it extinguishes, it stupifies, and finally it reduces each nation to being nothing more than a flock of timid and industrious animals, of which the government is the shepherd."

I don't get tax at point of transfer when it comes to assets. It is still an asset and you cannot get any direct monitory value out of it. You only see and benefit from said value when it is sold. In the Uk, you only pay tax when you dispose of an asset, not when you receive it. You just need to let HMRC know when you got it, so the relevant tax rates at the time can be applied when you do dispose of the asset.

Regulations exist because "someone died"but also to counter strike lawsuits ie if the final piece of bacon, bought by a customer, gives them food poisoning when it's in - date and there are a growing number of similar claims, despite refridgeration, then we have to assume something has gone wrong with the functional standards of the brand. But more importantly, there is no significant change until someone perishes and links can be established to the Health And Safety standards of that bacon or other food. Lawsuits (sueing) can run into tens of millions of US dollars, bankrupt the farm and burn reputation to the ground But i also understand, beauracracy can be annoying... Been the re, done that
A lot of current laws/rules/regulations are there to make us dependent on large corporations and the government. Some are indeed there to make things safe, however.
Regulation is necessary in order to have safer foods and goods. But when you vote for a representative who say money is a form of speech this what you get Absurd regulations which hurt little guy.
This stuff is maddening, but many of these issues have work-arounds if you only are aware of them. For instance, put property into an irrevocable trust and just change who the trustees (controllers) are. Since the trust owns the property forever, it never technically changes hands and so there are no inheritance taxes to worry about. Of course, there are many details you can be screwed over if you don't seek local legal council (of which I am not) and options vary with time and place. But the important concept to keep in mind is that politicians don't like being screwed over by their own controls; they make themselves loopholes, so the inquisitive common folk can use those loopholes too.
The regulations put in place, and all the lawfull procedures help to ensure that food is destroyed. Perhaps more people need to actually produce their own food, and not think only of doing to sell, or not as a primary money maker ? So anyone who likes to eat perhaps should be interested in small farming/homesteading and gardening...???

Buerocracy is not democracy and therefore not pro people. Same thing here in Germany. And the best part? You would think computers make things easier, right? Wrong. Things are getting more and more complicated.
is the problem that the government regulates in general or that "we the people" who run the country would sue each other in a heartbeat? In a way, regulations protect the business owner in a lawsuit. Like incorporating to separate your private livelihood from your business. However, regulations are a double-edged sword for sure and do choke the little guy by the big guys who can afford the legal teams to game the system in their favor. Corruption is definitely the hardest thing to stamp out no matter what the system.

@@MizantropMan Yeah because butchering your own meat was only done by regular people for 6500 years with great success. Meat processing plants do almost nothing except visual inspection to make sure your meat is not contaminated. It's not regular people that are the problem. Regular people have common sense and know not to eat a cow that was infested with worms, or to give that meat to their neighbor.
The problem is greedy pieces of shit behind closed doors at the little management office next to the meat processing facility, who would gladly sell you poisonous meat to grow their company 3%, and who pass laws to keep a regular guy from selling chickens to his neighbor (which again, has been the basic foundation of civilization for 6500 years).

I've been saying this for years: think about how weird and unnatural we are. You now aren't allowed to do any of the things that are part of your most basic instincts. It's not strange that there are so many wayward young people these days, when human nature is regulated against. Most people don't know how to grow or find food, cure what ails us, many of us don't know how to defend ourselves, how to build shelter, how to find answers to basic problems on our own without having some book or institution tell us the "designated solution". In fact, if you try, you will be told that you are trespassing or otherwise breaking the law. This is what many a people around the world meant when they said "they are taking our land". It's kind of ironic how America was born out of the settlers' desire to escape the system, and now the system is more restrictive than ever. I shudder to think what will happen when AI is put to work to regulate people.

That reminds me of how Walmart lobbied for increasing the minimum wage. I am guessing their logic behind that is that it will hurt us, but it will hurt our competition a whole lot more. Very sad.
@@george89047 Regulatory capture. There's an entire field of study around it and I feel it in my own industry.
Hurt them? Basically the same as having an advertising budget, or an army of lawyers on call at all times. Paying millions, to wipe out your competition, is a drop in the bucket, at their level.
Also, keep in mind, our minimum wage in the 50s, 60s, and 70s was much better than today, as we had strong money. They pulled the greatest scam ever, when they devalued the money.
There was actually a recent case of a wholesaler coming out in support of a higher minimum wage and people lauded him as a hero, if he defends a higher wage it means Walmart has no excuse for paying such low wages! Nevermind that he employs less people per store than any Walmart and his employees are often more qualified than retail workers so he won't be affected by minimum wage laws as much as Walmart.
(we could also get into the discussion that Walmart is essentially subsidized by the government but that's another topic in itself)
Higher minimum wage helps drive mom and pop shops out of business

I worked as a manager in a factory egg farm. We allowed allowed local agriculture classes to make walk through visits. It turned into a major problem with FDA because of contamination. Jeez eggs are in shells how do visitors contaminate them. The weirdness of some of the laws is a pain.
I am not very familiar with agriculture, but isn't the problem that the chicken may get sick? It is quite common to have a lot of them in small spaces so deceases can spread very quickly. Especially since the food quality is usually not very high and is chosen for quick weight gain which makes the chicken more susceptible to infections.
Correct me if I'm wrong.

As somebody who grew up on a poor farm I know exactly what you mean but I also know it's more difficult in USA than it is in Canada where I am from (but it's still pretty bad.) The problem is that America's Agriculture Department is insanely huge compared to other countries, it's why Monsanto has so much power. I even suspect USA treats their Agricultural Department as an extension of their Defense Department.
You would think USA would not have this problem considering how much autonomy every state has but nope, it's all a waste.
Thank Wickard v. Filburn for that
Good eye. It actually does!
@Toask
For me "poor" was more relative to everyone else where I lived. I know what you mean based off of other experiences I heard of but my Dad still needed to work another job on top of his farm to sustain his family. And like I said, we still considered poor relative to everyone else. If my Dad was completely relying on his own farm with beef, I'd say we would have been "poor poor".
There's a TH-camr named Greg Judy who is mostly about beef farming and it bothers him that it's common for small farmers to get another job (or two) just to maintain a normal income. These people were doing an important job for society, heck, the most important job, making food and they barely get by.
If my Dad could make one change in his early life of coming to Canada it would be to avoid beef and go primarily into grains. He would have had a much easier time, especially if you consider the land prices back then in the early 80s.
A lot of government regulations and taxes are designed to keep us dependent on employment. In my country (and many others), the income tax rate spikes when you start earning a bit more than what would buy you a reasonable life. Meaning that you have to earn an enormous sum of money to have some left over to save so that you are not dependent on employment income before retirement.

This reminds me very much of music collections agencies in Australia. Over the last few years, I enquired about starting an internet radio station -- legally. The music collection agencies will charge you a quarterly fee based on your total quarterly revenue, but the fee starts from $0 revenue (the first bracket is $0 - $5000). So, what's the fee if you don't yet have any listeners and as such no revenue? Oh, just $4400 per year, and it goes up from there as you build your audience and subsequently earn more revenue. Not so bad once you have a large audience and able to charge for advertising, but the barriers of entry are huge.
Btw, there’s a similar effect happening to off-gridders and homesteaders. Lots of things are just illegal in many states.

@@iluan_ Deep lore. But most people don't know all these details and (rightfully) become very nervous when they start getting letters from super-powerful companies who effectively own some governments have big teams of lawyers to boot. Even if no laws have been broken, arguing this in an open courtroom can cost thousands or tens or hundreds of thousands. I understand that there have been instances where there have been patent-based lawsuits over wind-pollinated crops, at least in past, since it's possible to legally collect samples for genetic testing from some roadsides. Dunno if those have tapered off yet or not.
The arrangement reminds me of the "troll patent" firms which file for generic IT-related patents and then they sue others when they come out with similar software/technologies/infrastructure/whatever. They are often successful because most judges are Boomers and most legal systems are not designed to cope with legislating things like software (see: Congress asks Mark Zuckerberg ignorant questions, Seasons 1 and 2)

This is not a revelation. It hasn’t been for at least 150 years. This is how contemporary capitalism works.

It’s called monopoly. The most refined way of exploitation.

_Everything I want to do is illegal_
Wait, that's illegal.
You are lucky and don't know it. In Germany everything is more overregulated than in the US. In Germany the government forces you to have a health insurance and for everything you want to do you need a insurance. You also need permissions for everything, e.g. you are not allowed to renovate your house or flat, you need to get a permission from the government for everything you want to do.
same in the Nordics, it's ridiculous
The US is like that, but they can't keep up with their own overinflated bureaucracy.
It's exactly the same in the US. Penalties for not having health insurance, can't drive without auto insurance, can't remodel without the right permits, etc.
@6:30 this is why the tax code keeps getting more and more complex. The more complicated it gets, the playing field is shifted. Large corporations that can hire teams of expensive tax attorneys and creative accountants can survive in a taxation environment where smaller businesses struggle to stay open. As in industry, finance, tech, same goes for farming!
You sell a house you pay taxes, you buy a house you pay taxes, you own a house you pay taxes, you will the house your son pays taxes.
So in your lifetime you basically give a house for free to the goverment just for the privilege of paying and having somewhere to live.

Mother-in-law runs her small daycare out of her home. She doesn't need a license for 4 kids, but believes all daycare providers should. She learns later that if she loses her license, she'll no longer be able to even have the 4 kids. Local inspector is a POS and hits her with every small violation possible. Online requirements are most of them, because the online system doesn't work and she can't take the tests. She's talked to half the state government, and no one is beholden to anyone else or wants to help.
Her partner gets cancer, and can't stay with her because license would require him to be a resident. If he's a resident, she'll lose her Medicare.
She provides a vastly greater service to these kids than larger institutional daycare, but the state heavily favors them. They also completely turn a blind eye to anyone who doesn't pursue a license, while these have a history of dubious practices. They really doesn't give a crap about childrens' well-being. It's all about making administrative jobs and having an unearned sense of power.
In 2015, the EU made patents on seeds legal. Before that, vegetable and fruit seeds were open source in the sense that anyone could make a cross between seeds creating innovation throughout the agriculture sector. Instead, companies like Monsanto and Syngenta are patenting lots of seed breeds that could for example be resistant against certain plagues or pesticide poisons (Monsanto also makes pesticide poisons btw). Farmers now have to buy their seeds at the big corporations for a higher price or risk their harvest. They also don't replant their own seeds anymore, since the big corporations could sue them for using patented seeds, even if they just find slight signs of their patented seeds.
Anyone surprised that farmers have also been "think of the children'd" to death? Although like any industry, the worst dregs have brought down hyper regulation on everyone else with their evil deeds.

As a libertarian and new linux user, I know the frustation of regulations a.k.a rules enforced by government agencies to keep the market leaders from getting competitions from new business.
I worked for a while in Pharma, making sure the machines operated the way they were designed to. In the beginning I was stunned by the amount of time and paperwork needed just to clear one machine. I asked a more experienced colleague about this; how is it that a machine that costs maybe 500,000 to manufacture can cost up to 1,000,000 to validate? Well, he told me, that's the idea, to make meeting the regulations so expensive that only the big corporations can afford it.
Thats why i am libertarian. A lot of problems comes from unesesery regulation of markets.

I don't get tax at point of transfer when it comes to assets. It is still an asset and you cannot get any direct monitory value out of it. You only see and benefit from said value when it is sold. In the Uk, you only pay tax when you dispose of an asset, not when you receive it. You just need to let HMRC know when you got it, so the relevant tax rates at the time can be applied when you do dispose of the asset.
reminds me of one of the stories i heard from mrs. uihlein (president of Uline, the box and everything else company) about when she was building her new headquarters in WI. she ended up having to pay a 10k fine for every lightbulb installed in the place, because there was some ordnance stating the max power draw of any lightbulb you could install, but the ones she had wanted for the facility were above that limit by a few watts. gubmit is crazy

Regulations exist because "someone died"but also to counter strike lawsuits ie if the final piece of bacon, bought by a customer, gives them food poisoning when it's in - date and there are a growing number of similar claims, despite refridgeration, then we have to assume something has gone wrong with the functional standards of the brand.

Hi Luke. Thank you for making videos, I appreciate everything you do. Hope you're having a good day.
Wholesome comments like this are heavily underappreciated
A lot of current laws/rules/regulations are there to make us dependent on large corporations and the government. Some are indeed there to make things safe, however.
The necessary parts of the regulation are the trojan horse.
Safety is an illusion
It’s because the US has it backward they regulate the individual and not the big corporations
When in reality it should be the other way around
Regulation is necessary in order to have safer foods and goods.
But when you vote for a representative who say money is a form of speech this what you get
Absurd regulations which hurt little guy.
Money isn't a form of speech is a lot of countries but we're still fucked by regulation.
This stuff is maddening, but many of these issues have work-arounds if you only are aware of them. For instance, put property into an irrevocable trust and just change who the trustees (controllers) are. Since the trust owns the property forever, it never technically changes hands and so there are no inheritance taxes to worry about. Of course, there are many details you can be screwed over if you don't seek local legal council (of which I am not) and options vary with time and place. But the important concept to keep in mind is that politicians don't like being screwed over by their own controls; they make themselves loopholes, so the inquisitive common folk can use those loopholes too.
I would just like to say thank you for normalizing the sound levels between all of your videos.
If you trust that the government is on your side and here to help you, you haven't had to deal with any of their bureaucracy
The regulations put in place, and all the lawfull procedures help to ensure that food is destroyed.

I just want to say, you're looking a lot like the default osrs guy
I never wore and mask nor have taken the CV arm ticket making everything I want to do illegal since I live in Canada.

Thank God we're watching the system break before our eyes.
In Bulgaria if you wanna make bacon, you just make bacon.
We should abolish taxes and crowdfund the government
But but..
Well, consider how many Kickstarter project are just scams, I don't think it's a big change at all.
Jake Lewson
True enough, but consider that you can only scam people so many times before they catch on and don’t want to support you anymore, at which point your government either fixes itself and stops scamming people or goes bankrupt and ceases to exist.
Loving the recent uploads Luke. Keep it up!
Linkola was talking about a very similar thing with modernity and regulations in Finland.
"farming" talks about ranching the whole time
Speaking of Bacon..... I put a pound of it in the air fryer this afternoon and had that for lunch...
lovely
the sam hyde of free software
>Sam Scam
Do you think Luke will get banned from youtube also?
I was not able to see the cover of the book at the end because the video was plastered with thumbnails. Why does TH-cam do that, it's so annoying.
You are one of the most interesting TH-camrs i know...
I remember the rage that filled me when I first learned that it was illegal to collect rainwater...
GTFO. Minimal government and regulations on EVERYTHING.
Well shaving is legal, maybe let's start there!
Buerocracy is not democracy and therefore not pro people. Same thing here in Germany. And the best part? You would think computers make things easier, right? Wrong. Things are getting more and more complicated.
is the problem that the government regulates in general or that "we the people" who run the country would sue each other in a heartbeat? In a way, regulations protect the business owner in a lawsuit. Like incorporating to separate your private livelihood from your business. However, regulations are a double-edged sword for sure and do choke the little guy by the big guys who can afford the legal teams to game the system in their favor. Corruption is definitely the hardest thing to stamp out no matter what the system.
This is the best clickbait title ever. Really love the structure of your video. Your video kept my attention span really long.
all we need is enough fruits and veggies, literally nothing else
I firmly believe that if i was born 200 years ago i would have thrived... i hate this modern era, the politics and the laws.
If you think that USA's goverment is bullshit you have to read about Argentina's goverment, 80% tax in agricultural activities in a economy based around agricultural activities, any person pays 56% taxes, theres a little tax in everything you do, 186 taxes in total, 2nd country with most taxes in the world beside some stupid island in Africa.
"You'll get mad reading it; I highly recommend this book." 👌
This is why in USA, Xlear nasal spray can't say that removing viruses prevents viruses,.
Everything I want to do is illegal too, but at least I met Chris Hansen
The pursuit of hapiness in the constitution was old timey talk for 'the pursuit of a profession'. Id say our government has legislated that all but away. Most give up and work for someone.
It's the same in europe.
I think, most work for children would be better than school. So I'm pro child labour, at least in a modern western society.
