MSNOW is leaving 30 Rock and moving to the old NYTimes building on West 43rd. That means that Willie Geist will be working in the same building that his father used to.

The London Stock Exchange collects a tax of 0.05%, paid by the buyer, on any transfer of stock. Paris, Swiss and Hong Kong collect too, varying amounts (Hong Kong collects 0.13% from buyer and seller). The NYSE trades aggregate to $18.9 billion daily.

In 1970, there were 25 tax brackets which allowed the income tax to be truly progressive. The top marginal rate kicked in at $300,000, which, in inflated 2025 dollars is roughly $3,000,000. Every dollar earned over that amount was taxed 70%. Musk earns $1b, he keeps $300m. Enough, don't you think?

To put this in scale, Elon Musk's salary from Tesla alone could fund the SNAP program for the entire country into 2034.
Tesla CEO Elon Musk scored a resounding victory on Thursday as shareholders approved a pay package of as much as $878 billion over the next decade, endorsing his vision of morphing the EV maker into an AI and robotics juggernaut.

In 1970, J. Paul Getty was the richest man in America. He was worth one billion dollars. Accounting for inflation, that's worth about $9,000,000,000. Evaluated as a share of GDP, he was 0.09% of the country's economy. Bezos's wealth is 0.7% of the economy. Musk is 0.9%. In 1970, the country…

I’ve read my Campbell. I know what’s going to happen - his hubris will be his undoing and he will be brought low. I’m trying to imagine how. Looking for tragic scenarios.

WOW: The White House says the president's MAIN PRIORITY is his BALLROOM. SNAP is ending. Subsidies for health care are gong to double and in some instances quadruple plan premiums. The government is shut down. The cost of living is through the roof. And his priority is his ballroom.

A mask or hidden face on an ICE agent or reservist will be tolerated when they give an interview on the legality, procedures and morale among their colleagues. I can't believe these citizens who have trained for war are happy to be pulled from their work and family to take crap from protesters.
