So those three superpowers of technology means that an individual who used to have a pretty good, decent job and it was valuable in the economy, if that job is now simple or outsourceable or replaceable, that person is devalued. And it's due to no fault of their own. They're not a bad person. It's just that that in the economy is not very valuable anymore.

Yeah, and the game is, well, hey, these people have got all the money. We just need to take it back off them. But the flaw in that thinking is that we live in a world where you can live and work from anywhere. So this digital technology that is causing this problem also gives extreme mobility. You could run this from anywhere in the world, and you do run it from anywhere in the world.

If for some reason the US said, hey, we're not having podcasters anymore, we're taxing podcasters 80%. Yeah, my nightmare. Well, you'd be like, oh, that's an inconvenience, but I'm going to just go to Dubai or go to Switzerland or go to Italy or go somewhere else. And it would be inconvenient, but like mildly inconvenient. It's not wildly inconvenient.

It's not like picking up a factory and putting it somewhere else. Everything's virtual. One of my companies is a tech company. We have 35 full-time employees and we have no office. Like we've never had an office. Everyone works from all over the world. We're a wildly successful company, one of the fastest growing in the UK. And yeah, we don't have physical offices.

Portugal and Italy does now. So Italy, you can pay, I think a flat tax of 200,000 euros and that's it. You're done for taxing that. So if you were, if you're a type of person earning a million a year, 200 grand, pretty good deal. Um, especially if your current country's charging you, you know, 400 or 500 grand. Mm-hmm.

In the 1970s, they did high taxes or the taxes got really up there in the UK and we lost all the British artists. We lost the Beatles and the Rolling Stones and the Who and Kinks. They all rehomed their catalogs in Amsterdam, which had a 1% tax on intellectual property rights.

And basically, the response was all this incredible intellectual property that British artists had produced didn't generate any taxes for the UK. Don't you've got it now?
