So there are 800 billionaires by assets (not taxable income) in the US and you posted that the top 1% of taxpayers pay less than 50% of taxes. But lets assume all of the top 1% are billionaires (they are not), do you think there are fewer than 80,000 taxpayers?

Are you sure billionaires pay the majority of taxes? I find that unlikely given how few there are (800 in the US estimated in 2024) and how much of their wealth is through investing.

I am not jealous. I am answering his question, why propose an unrealized gain tax on billionaires? As with all things politics, it is about populism.

Because billionaires are not sympathetic figures.

Goes to show. If you say something dumb enough, you can get certain people to believe it without question, and get them fired up. There are no billionaires buying $250k houses. There are no $250k houses with Zillow estimates at $500k. And most of all, Zillow estimates are not fair market value. But sure, lets get fired up. That said, taxing unrealized gains aint ever gonna happen. But taxing turning unrealized gains into income might (i.e. structured financing of unrealized gains to extract their value without selling) could, and in many cases already does happen (too tight a collar and you get a tax bill, ffor example).

Mike "Mr. Hodge Trophy" Chapman told me last year's fan fest was his last. I wonder if those are related.

Bummer. Did whoever told you say why?

I think they should switch to pounds

Are we sure there will be two tournaments?

Huh?

oh, hell, @ILLINIWrestlingBlog, I was high that day.

Dammit. I am on vacation or this would already be done.

Hell, give out three. If the judges had not penalized the other Romanian,Sabrina Voinea, for stepping out, when she clearly did not step out, she would have gotten bronze over either Chiles or Barbosu.

HWC earned more medals per pound, per inch of height, inch of width, and inch of depth of wrestler(s).

Spencer Lee's Olympic weight was 125.7, but I get what you are saying. Two weights may be too much though. It seems a lot of guys outgrow 125. I could certainly see making 133 the lowest weight and adding a weight around 210 or 220. As for the history of weights, you are right that they have been experimented with in the past. The lowest weight was originally 115 before it bumped to 118 a few years later, and ultimatley to 125 after the weight cutting tragedies. There were even a few years we had 11 weights.

I am guessing RBY's bank balance will be different. But, I suspect the real motivation for Taylor is that he is taking a page from his mentor's playbook. I think I heard Sanderson say that step one of building a college program is to build an RTC. If so, this move is less about RBY or Fix individually, but how they collectively help with college recruiting.

Still auditioning for your dream job at The National Enquirer?

You know. Don't play coy.

48 and 52 are madness

You are full of it claiming you don't know the date? You are also full of it claiming it is incumbent on law enforcement to stop crime when it is incumbent on each of us to not committ crime. Riddle me this, Socrates, why was all this extra security needed in the first place when it has never been needed before?

Poor sweet, naive Donald. I hope he can maintain his childlike innocence.

I am amazed and impressed by the spinal flexibility at your age. Poor Donald. He is the real victim here. Those dastardly Democrats and their reverse psychology tricked him into doing and saying all the things he said and did up to and including Jan. 6. It is such a shame that extra security wasn't provided like it has not been at every election ratification (note to self: look up why extra security was needed)
