You may buy a coat, a horse, a house; there you are paying the seller for labor exerted, for something that he has produced, or that he has got from the man who did produce it; but when you pay a man for land, what are you paying him for?

Will never stop talking about this. It's not even Marx and Engels, it's until before WW1. Stefan Zwieg:
Many forget that Marx and Engels lived in the golden era of mostly open borders and largely before visa and passport regimes. People by and large could move anywhere and start a life and essentially live there forever. That extended to even many subjects of colonialism.

A new NBER paper finds that raising California's property tax to Texas's level would cut housing prices by 12% and shift homeownership toward younger buyers. Across the US, ending the "step-up" tax break on inherited homes could open up up to 2 million homes held by seniors.

Can we take a moment to notice how batshit fucking insane it is that the president is talking about international trade like it's fucking settlers of Catan? Yes I'll trade you 6 sheep for 4 wood ass shit – at Iceland
Belarus' total production of potash is less than Canada's potash exports to the US. If you think that the US is going to get all of Belarus' potash, via Russian rail, to Russian ports, and then across the Atlantic for cheaper than from Canada, you are nuts

Posting on Behalf of Grab who was banned from twitter for his awesome tournament reviews. I like Dillon’s writing a lot, and his honesty in evaluating his own (and other’s) performances. He makes me think about how to be a better TO and Competitor. whatgrabsme.org/melee/riptid…

the thing about Wizzrobe Time is that he consistently arrives to stream THE MINUTE the TOs start saying 'It's time to DQ' genuinely have had this happen to me a half dozen times and heard every other major stream runner/TO talk about it he's just frame-perfect
