“Taxes will eventually become a voluntary process, with the possible exception of real estate - the one physical thing that does not move easily and has computable value. The US has a jump-start on the practice, in that 65 percent of local school funds come from real estate taxes - a practice Europeans consider odd and ill advised. But wait until that's all there is left to tax, when the rest of the things we buy and sell come from everywhere, anywhere, and nowhere.” DoeRealMovingValuesLeftWaitingProcessBusinessTaxesSellsFinanceExceptionEstatesPhysical Things Author:Nicholas Negroponte

“The move from scarcity thinking to abundance thinking, from zero-sum competition to one-hundred-sum collaboration, is not just a “nice” or “moral” idea. In the twenty-first century, it's plain good sense. Scarcity says, “I'm going to keep all my ideas to myself and sell more than anyone else.” Abundance says, “By mentoring, coaching, and sharing all our best ideas, we're going to create a powerful tide that raises all our ships-and we'll all sell more as a result".” ThinkingFirstsIdeasMovingResultsPowerfulMoralNiceCenturyHundredTwentiesRaisesSellsCompetitionShipsCoachingAbundanceZeroCollaborationTidesGood SenseScarcityMentoring Author:Daniel Burrus
