Mark Cuban just schooled California representative Ro Khanna on why the “billionaire tax” is such a bad idea. It’s a timely lesson as Google’s Eric Schmidt and Sergey Brin can’t seem to agree on how to make the case against the tax, also known as Proposition 40.
In a revealing exchange on X, the billionaire “Shark Tank” tycoon pointed out that if tech entrepreneurs have to hand over 5% of their wealth anytime their startup companies go public, they will all leave California.
They won’t just leave to avoid paying taxes. They will leave because venture capital funds won’t even invest in their companies if they are California residents. Why would anyone invest in something that is a guaranteed 5% loss?

Is this the same Mark Cuban that fully supported Hillary and sat behind her at the Democrat convention??
Serves Cuban right for all the crap he says about Trump.
Mark teamed up on Trump Rx and supports Trumps attempts to bring drug manufacturing back to US soil
Communists have no idea how business works.

"VC system" ?
They don’t care.
Making barbarism great again… communist Muslim Michigan Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed let the head out of the bag, sharing his idea of what victory would look like against his opponent. “You put one ogre on a pike, and then everyone else gets the message, and all of a sudden starts to sound a lot different,” Says El-Sayed.
Of course he tried to deflect criticism of this statement by claiming it was pertaining to Fetterman.
What Cuban doesn’t, or refuses, to understand is that if the DSA does take over they don’t need him, George Soros or any of the rest of them. Because the DSA is going to be in charge of the most powerful military in the world, there will be no place to hide themselves and their money. They will be hunted down like Stalin did to Trotsky.
He’s still a democrat.
100%. He thinks that the alligator will eat him last.
I’m starting to think Cuban’s friends in the Democrat Party are no longer running things. He’s in for a few more surprises.

Did you hear the one about two idiots entered a chat?...
The California job market was truly booming when Reagan was president in the 80s. It was truly amazing. I worked here during it and could literally pick and choose where I wanted to work and got hired everywhere I applied, every time. It felt like it could never end, but democrats made sure it did.
Exactly. Cuban and his buddies have been funding these commies for decades and all of a sudden they get religion?
Start talking the talk or stop whining. Hypocrites.
Maybe he'll learn the same lesson Ronald Reagan learned. Time will tell.
