In combustion the burning body removes the base, which it attracts more strongly than does the matter of heat, which appears as flame, heat and light.

It's about business and tax base.

This is one of the good parts of being a freelancer - you get to choose the spot you're going to be working at. But I wouldn't base everything on my social media or my work.
