Bobby Peters? Didn’t he play cornerback for the Bills a few years back? 😉

I’ve often wondered about this. This new technology either works or it doesn’t. As only a very small percentage of vehicles are powered by electricity right now (including mine) I will not be the least bit surprised if a very short few years from now we’re all being told that the used batteries are piling up in landfills and we all now need to switch to something else.

Stacy Abrams is gonna need to write that down.

We’re not talking about corporate tax. We’re talking about personal income tax. If you’re asking about people who run their business expenses through their personal finances, I’m sure that would change….but then again if their overall tax rate would be going DOWN I’m not sure they’d have much of a complaint.

And the useful idiots buy it. What they don’t understand, or choose to ignore, is that this same narrative could apply to every wave of immigrants over the last two centuries….regardless of skin color.

As Nancy famously said: “We’re going to have to approve the indictment before we know what’s in it.”….or something like that. 😉

Thanks Frank No politics from me here either. As a traditionally high earner, I can tell you that a consumption tax would be an unnecessary benefit to me and my family. Regardless of the details, we already know that the government is able to tax ‘income’. They do now. The change would be that ALL types of income would taxed at the same rate, and there wouldn’t be any write offs. Your tax form would be extremely short. But…now EVERYONE would have skin in the game and everyone would push back (or not) on tax increases.

I’m not in favor of a consumption tax. The wealthy don’t ‘consume’ anywhere near the same percentage of their income as the poor do. I see no problem with a flat tax. If the IRS can calculate all the nonsense embedded in our current tax code, administrating a truly flat tax would be a walk in the park.

Such as deplorable? 😉

Welcome to the reality that California, Arizona and Texas have been living with for years. While many called what the Texas and Florida governors did a stunt, I applauded it. At some point this problem has to become reality to other parts of the country. Watching as they all scramble to send these people somewhere other than from what they can see out their backyard is fascinating. This is NOT the fault of the American people. This is 100% another stunning failure by our elected class.

I believe Vivek promotes a completely flat tax on all income of every kind, for everyone.

Of the things the Biden Administration has done this one is a real head scratcher to me. There’s no way in hell you’re going to convince average Americans that inflation isn’t a significant issue in their daily lives. They see it and feel it virtually every day. The Administration would be far better off not talking bout it at all, just as they’ve chosen to do with so many other topics in the last almost three years.

It’s obviously fun to play armchair head coach but everyone needs to keep in mind that the front office is looking at a lot more than tape from the Colts game to make their final decisions. Just like every year I’m guessing there’ll be a couple of cuts that seem to be real head scratchers to the fanbase. And just like every year I’ll look at the final 53 and say “Wow, that was a whole lot of chatter just to get that sixth WR and/or LB straightened out.”

What in the world is wrong with you John? Your posts on this topic are beyond ridiculous. You can’t honestly be promoting completely open borders, can you? (It’s hard to tell when people are being sarcastic on here.)

This is right up there with the dumbest post of the year. Which is REALLY hard to say given there are so many in contention.

I remember that movie! It was filmed in Buffalo, right?

Hey Kemp! You’re asking the WRONG questions.

We’re going to agree to disagree. How does this happen? It happens when the federal government gets involved in the student loan business. To quote you: “start there”.

Yes, I’m aware, but you’d mentioned you were amazed that colleges weren’t being held responsible. Other than the fact that sell ridiculously worthless degrees in majors that are a total waste of time, talent and resources, I’m not sure they are the culprit here. I could’ve almost bought the liberal line of bullshite when they told us banks were preying on the least intelligent among us during the housing bubble….but college students? I thought they were supposed to be most intelligent! No?

Colleges are demanding their customers pay the bill? I’d hope/expect that they would! All businesses have collection agencies when an outstanding balance persists.

Most things in life aren’t complicated. It’s amazing how many drinks and appetizers are bought for the table when someone down at the end says “it’s on the company tonight”.

I agree….but only sort of….if customers keep flooding your restaurant no matter how much you raise the prices on your menu….do you blame the restaurant?

You do realize that the roles of Court Jester and King of the Board are already taken…right? Are you campaigning on behalf of term limits? 😉

This is the old chicken and egg debate....but I believe you're asking the wrong questions. The real question is why would something as arbitrary as the color of one's skin make someone more apt to vote for one political party over another? It really shouldn't.

“Fried” and true method? You’ve gotta love the autocorrect functionality on here. 😂😂😂
