The problem isn't taxation. It's competence. Plus: the largest autism fraud case in US history out of Minnesota, AOC's brown-water data center stunt that Tom calls \"treasonous,\" Jeff Bezos predicting AI will let one spouse leave the workforce, the AI-made film premiering at Cannes, Spotify and Universal's new AI remix licensing deal, the Figure robot running 200 hours error-free, and a viral C…","meta_description":"Welcome to Impact Theory with Tom Bilyeu.
