this is an extremely thorough deep dive into the topic. Did you write this or is it from some resource you could share? Wish I found it a few months ago, would have saved me weeks of digging!

The only things I would add are those very specific definitions in the U.S. tax code of who exactly is a U.S Person (a federal govt employee) and what is a "trade or business (a corporation under the direct control and jurisdiction of the federal govt i.e Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac).

People open their turbotax every year and sign under penalty of perjury saying "durr I'm a US Person conducting a trade or business" without realizing what they are certifying under very serious consequences.

while i already studied a lot of this it took a lot of sifting through to get there.you put it all together in an incredible way! bookmarking this to send to others.

You bring up an interesting point at the end on how to answer the question of being a US Citizen. Your response to that question is a bit wordy but I cant think of something better-I don't fully buy into the "state national" arguments. Would be great to have a 2-5 word answer for this.

plastics are literally everywhere and in every thing. there would need to be a significant transition period where new replacement materials can be discovered if we don't want to go back 150 years in technology.

was going to check it out, now with this endorsement will move it to the top of this list. thanks!

very cool! my first few searches worked well. excited to see a lot more podcast get added

interesting but less useful without assessing the opportunity cost of what a normal insurer would have cost. Also ,you're not supposed to "profit" from insurance. you're paying for peace of mind against catastrophic ilness or injury.

a lot of plebs will go through this over the coming cycles. it's a difficult spot but gives one time to redefine life based off their own internal values and following their own curiosity instead of those success markers foisted upon them by societal norms.
