Spolu 23: Cascading Taxes As profit distributions move from spolu-to-spolu-to-spolu, spolus will have an extra cash flow to remain more solvent--and distribute more profits later. https://tiereddemocraticgovernance.org/blog_details.php?blog_cat_id=19&amp;id=359 #tiereddemocraticgovernance #taxation #profit

Spolu 22: Keep Taxes Low Spolus should pay a tax on profits. But I recommend a small tax rate: https://tiereddemocraticgovernance.org/blog_details.php?blog_cat_id=19&amp;id=358 #tiereddemocraticgovernance #corporatetax #profit

https://tiereddemocraticgovernance.org/blog_details.php?blog_cat_id=19&amp;id=357 If a spolu becomes too complicated (legally speaking), this gives the impression of too much funny business--and profits are hidden. The spolu network should kick out that spolu: https://tiereddemocraticgovernance.org/blog_details.php?blog_cat_id=19&amp;id=357 #tiereddemocraticgovernance #network

Spolu 20: Share Dilution I recommend spolus have a provision in their articles that shares are slowly diluted. This will make it easier for the spolu to find capital a decade or two later: https://tiereddemocraticgovernance.org/blog_details.php?blog_cat_id=19&amp;id=356 #tiereddemocraticgovernance #shares
Post #1846444
Spolu 19: Spolu Share Value Spolu shares will be valued mostly on their rate of return: https://tiereddemocraticgovernance.org/blog_details.php?blog_cat_id=19&amp;id=355 #tiereddemocraticgovernance #spolu #value

The Spolu Exchange The Spolu Exchange is where sellers and buyers of spolu shares can effect their trade. This exchange will be much less vibrant than current stock exchanges. And that is OK. https://tiereddemocraticgovernance.org/blog_details.php?blog_cat_id=19&amp;id=354 #tiereddemocraticgovernance #spolu #stockexchange

Spolu 15: Auditing All spolus will be occasionally audited to ensure they are following the spolu rules. If, after a warning, the infractions are unaddressed, the spolu will revert to a corporation, with the investors taking full control: https://www.tiereddemocraticgovernance.org/blog_details.php?blog_cat_id=19&amp;id=350 #tiereddemocraticgovernance #audit #auditor

Spolu 14: Management Salaries I recommend the spolu rules have a 20x mulitiplier limit of highest paid to lowest paid: https://www.tiereddemocraticgovernance.org/blog_details.php?blog_cat_id=19&amp;id=349 #tiereddemocraticgovernance #management #salary

Book Review: The Shock Doctrine This popular 2007 book shows how neoliberalism gets to implement its way on an unwilling population. It is psychology on a mass scale. The second Trump administration is employing these techniques. https://tiereddemocraticgovernance.org/blog_details.php?blog_cat_id=19&amp;id=100 #tiereddemocraticgovernance #neoliberalism

Taxes for the Rich In Canada, high earners are taxed at 50% for annual income more than $200,000. This means if a $200,000 earner gets a raise to $300,000, he keeps $50,000 of that $100,000 raise and gives the other $50,000 to the government.
