dear @mark-carney.bsky.social, tax credits are not capital expenditures, come on bud. SR&EDs aren't even a tax credit that incentivizes capital expenditures, it covers operational costs associated with R&D!

Great article, and this particular detail has me thinking about @austinwalker.bsky.social drawing parallels between Nemik's manifesto and Zapatista writing on @morecivilized.bsky.social

Nothing funnier to me than the oblivious self-own a Danish guy decrying the "compromise of multiculturalism" as an "abject failure" in an article he didn't even bother to write in his native language. Weird how multiculturalism doesn't seem to bother him when it's with other white European cultures!
