The possession of personal property can’t earn you any money

If I understand it correctly my laptop and 3d printer, are private property since I can make money with those...

No you can't. You have to create a legal entity before you're allowed to make money.

I'm not sure if thats required here, but it's totally possible without asking for government permission

Edit: i might be wrong here because of "legal speak" language barrier, but if I understand correctly you can make money from your business as a regular person just fine (legally). There's just a limit on how much you can earn before needing yo register as a business

You can make exactly $600 per year off your personal property before you run afoul of tax laws in the USA.

Thats sad(

There its ~25k$ IIRC. (Although doesn't count net profit, just all money you recive)

But there's huge gray market here, and I'm sure US has it too
