Chamath PalihapitiyaSri Lankan-born Canadian-American venture capitalist, founder of Social Capital and co-host of the All-In podcast
Palihapitiya suggests capital could be taxed far more heavily than labor, possibly with labor untaxed.
“there probably is an argument to be made that capital could be taxed much more punitively than labor and that maybe labor should not be taxed at all”

Alexander Wissner-GrossComputer scientist and founder of Reified, co-host of Moonshots
Wissner-Gross interprets Anthropic's choice of a private fund over public distribution as a snub to the administration and to universal basic equity.
“instead they're creating a private fund and not donating 5% to the general public, I construe as a snub to this particular administration”
