#Billionaires #prevail #SpaceX Gets #Billions From the #Government. It Gives Little to #Nothing Back in #Taxes. #ElonMusk #rocket company, SpaceX, has become hugely successful. It’s one of the world’s most valuable private companies and the linchpin to Musk’s plan to #colonize #Mars. But little is known about its #finances Elon Musk’s rocket company relies on #federal #contracts but years of losses have most likely let it avoid paying federal income taxes, according 2 internal company documents.

"Two dangerous bills have been reintroduced in Congress that would reverse over a decade of progress in fighting patent trolls and making the patent system more balanced. The Patent Eligibility Restoration Act (PERA) and the PREVAIL Act would each cause significant harm on their own. Together, they form a one-two punch—making it easier to obtain vague and overly broad patents, while making it harder for the public to challenge them.

These bills don’t just share bad ideas—they share sponsors, a coordinated rollout, and backing from many of the same lobbying groups. Congress should reject both."

Dear Friends of the BOTW,
The #Beginning Of The #World always starts with an ending. #Luckily a new #generation of #Mastodons, #Firefish and #precocious underage #mutants are with us. It is why I try to be child #friendly. Of course that might be creepy if I was a bad 'un. This is why I hold myself to a high standard of:

- #Heresy
- #Welcoming the #vulnerable
- Blocking the nonce sense

Of course I am not prefect, #perfect or moderate. In fact I can not be trusted by myself. So always #remember:

- Everybody's baby starts with the most basic #template
- People #change, for the better is an #intention
- We will #prevail

Have a great day. #Create, #improve, Be #kind. All the good stuff ​:ablobcatbongokeyboard:​ ​:ablobcatpopcorn:​ 🦋
