The LibertarioBrazil Plans to Tax the "Super Rich" — Starting at $100K a YearThe Brazilian government is selling its new tax reform as a win for the people—raising the income tax exemption while making the so-called “super rich” pay more.

You’re now a part of the elite, at least according to Brazil’s new tax plan.In this episode, we break down the hidden cost of this reform, the economic consequences of taxing productivity, and why even if the rich don’t leave, this policy will still fail.

While governments claim to respect national sovereignty and free speech, they quickly shift gears and cry about how they defend national sovereignty and free speech by killing free speech and individual rights. We explore the paradoxes, hypocrisies, and power struggles between governments, Big Tech, and individual users — and ask the key question: What is national sovereignty without individual freedom?

Far from being a space for strategic leadership, it showcased the dysfunction that often defines government institutions. But this isn’t just about Colombia.
