Income Taxes Should Be As Close To Zero As

0:00I think income taxes should be like as close to zero as possible. And then make the capital gains taxes higher. If you make with your hands, awesome.

The difference between this fictitious casino and the casino of life is that in the real world, you can amass chips, you cash out, you have a big wad of money, and you walk out the door.

Like that's when you realize that it was a fake game with rules that never mattered to begin with.
