Do you support tax on unrealized gains?
Pokebball replied to phypon's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
The point you're missing is the sale of your home could generate capital gains. Before selling, those gains are unrealized capital gains, and therefore could be subject to this tax on unrealized capital gains. -
Do you support tax on unrealized gains?
Pokebball replied to phypon's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
This is a stupid idea and extremely problematic to manage. First, let me say I'm not against taxes. In fact, in order to get our country's debt under control I think we need to cut expenditures AND raise taxes. Can't solve our debt problem otherwise. But taxing unrealized gains is stupid for numerous reasons, mostly measuring the unrealized gain. If we want to raise tax revenues, there are so many better ways to do it. explain -

Can we admit Trump is cognitively impaired?
Pokebball replied to Joe Ferguson forever's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Compare trump today, to trump yesterday, to trump 3 1/2 yrs ago, to trump 8 yrs ago. He hasn't changed so you should run with your characterization that he's an idiot. Don't be an idiot! -

J.D. Vance: Mainstream Anti-communist
Pokebball replied to BillsFanNC's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Given her results, I have to agree with you -
Lines exist anyways. They always have existed. And many have become more and more subjective, such as using a passport. There have been coed, men's and women's sports for my entire life. Lines were drawn decades ago. Title IX drew a line, back in the day when as far as I could certainly tell, things were more honest and simpler. I'm on a booster club board for a junior college and a question was posed a year ago about how a trans athlete should be counted for compliance with Title IX. No answer to date. A line that can be clearly understood needs to be drawn and consistently applied across the country. We have international bodies with different rules and protocols (there are more than the two that have been most recently involved in this boxing controversy). Someone needs to explain to me how any test is more objective than a chromosomal antibody test. Why do we have to make things so difficult?

majority of us desire restrictions on abortion

is abortion considered contraception?

The fact is, Biden quit. You're opinion on trump's strategy (or what his strategy should be) is an entirely different issue. Biden dropping out cancelled trump's debate with biden.

I thought Biden backed out. but you go ahead and run with your narrative.

That's the narrative you want to run with?

What I've come to like about Fetterman is that he speaks for himself. The establishment dems don't speak for him. We all can discuss whether or not we agree with anything and everything he says, he clearly doesn't regurgitate the crap that "his party" tells him to say. I think we need more politicians like that.
