New working paper: the Norwegian wealth tax was a huge success. The "exodus" of wealthy people never happened (less than 100 individuals left). Tax revenue increased by 71.5%. No changes in business activity or investment. www.nber.org/papers/w35854

I have sent a media request for Draganfly Inc. to appear on @meidascanada.ca It would be a great opportunity for them to explain the drone deal, the role of Donald Trump Jr. and answer the concerns that have been raised. I look forward to hearing from them as it is important to get this right.

I have known Sean Casey for many years. He is an honourable MP. He deserves better than to lose his parliamentary position for opposing arm sales to Israel. Dear @mark-carney.bsky.social there is a genocide going on. You know that right? www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

Back then, New York court found that Trump‑controlled charities engaged in illegal self‑dealing and misuse of funds including money connected to children pediatric cancer fundraising. Americans let him be on the ballots, they knew who he was .
Trump said he "worked long and hard" on rescue efforts at 9/11. Trump hasn't worked long and hard on anything. Ever. www.rawstory.com/trump-911-26...
