If only there was an agency in charge of monitoring stuff like this so it wouldn't spread. https://www.agri-pulse.com/art...

Wonder what the kool aid drinkers have to say about this?

Falling asleep watching Gutfeld on Fox News. By 6am tomorrow they will have new marching orders from dear leader about how he saved this monitoring system from the corrupt Biden administration.

Property tax in California is difficult because of Prop 13. No one wants to raise it.

LOL everyone outside of LA hates LA. Dirt bag slutty water thieves.

Rich people have been trying that for decades, so California FTB has gotten really good (and has been given legal tools) at catching people who try pretending they don't live in California with shell companies, etc.

That is investing in a company, not unrealized gain in general. When you start or invest in a company you are at risk due to flaws in the business plan, flaws in execution, changes in government policy, unanticipated/unpredictable events, etc.

When two California's are discussing something local they don't need to document the obvious that they both already know.

Saying the California state gov't wastes a lot of money is like saying California coastal waters are cold. They are local knowns.

There is another, and more important, area that is problematic. Spending. Unrealized games is just the politician's diversion from over spending.

I was thinking more about receiving acoustic waves and interpreting them to create a 3D image, than generating them. :-)

A relic of the medieval church's tithing practice that unfortunately got carried along to the new world from the old, analogous to the way that encephalitis mosquitos made it to our shores.

Personal realized income taxes are directly proportional to economic output and are the least distortive way to generate revenue.

They will be MRI like in that 3D images are created. The technology sounds a little similar to seismic imaging that generates 3D models of underground geologic features..

These folks want to do AI research. "Image Generation" probably isn't doing so well in the mind of investors anymore. So they probably asked their AI for a business model that would be more attractive to today's investors and the AI came up with "Medical Imagining". So here we are. They get to keep doing AI research. The investors are happy. Win. Win. :-)

No, California liberals will say the same thing, in private, among friends.

Not really, it's "innovation" is largely based on General Motors and other foreign research they got their hands on through partnerships that required technology transfers.

That is literally the sort of stuff they got from General Motors in recent history. Prior GM CEOs were careful not to share intellectual property, but the current CEO decided to share IP to get loans and other things that would keep the stock price up and the executive bonuses coming.

China has outsmarted American CEOs, not the American engineers. They think beyond this quarter's bonus.

That won't work. Billionaires and their lawyers are way smarter than the legislators who will draft those laws. They will be worked around. A crude hypothetical: A CEO's $21 million salary could become $1 million and an annuity that pays $1 million a year for life. At these levels a CEO normally lasts 6 years. So rather than taxing $126 million you'll tax $27 million and the former CEO will retire to a tax free stated and collect $6 million a year from annuities. Again, just something unrealistic and crude to offer an understandable workaround. And for those of you question that someone would take a lower working salary in working years for generous retirement payouts. That historically has happened. Such tradeoffs have been made by labor unions for many decades. In reality CEOS and their attorneys will craft something way more complex, but the point is really the legislature will be worked around.
