Ah, there is that. Not saying anything negative about Walz on this front. But it has been reported he is no millionaire, far from it. mspart

Which of Biden's were your favorite? Not even a smart question when your guy didn't bother to debate anyone in his primary. Or for that matter allow anyone else of consequence to participate. So why bring this up when Trump has offered 3 dates and Kamala only answers to two? I'm really not sure what you are trying to prove with your insightful little quip. mspart

What a rube! mspart

Taxing unrealized gains is stoopid. They are unrealized. That means that money has not been made. If you tax unrealized gains then you should refund money on unrealized losses. No, it only makes sense to tax realized gains. With the house example, currently you keep 500k (if married) tax free. If Kamala is aiming to take that away, that will be a real problem. Good luck doing that. mspart

Only compared to one who really does. mspart

No, but the Obamas are and Michele just said last night that her parents didn't trust anyone who took more than they needed. So perhaps her parents would be suspicious of her now as well. mspart

Yeah, word on the street is that Walz doesn't have much money, no house etc. I guess he might get a pension from being a congressman, and from being a teacher. But not much right now. mspart

The Ds and DOJ has the goods on Biden. Yes, he was couped right out of there, even though he was at the height of his physical prowess and mental agility. mspart

Which century? Was there a network at the turn of the century the penultimate turn of the century? mspart

Sorry ionel, it only works one way. That's where you give. The IRS never gives. They only take. mspart

I wonder if he will be re-elected to governor or elected to anything else after this. If Kamala wins this election, it will be in spite of Walz, not because of Walz. Like RFK Jr, she has shown her true colors by picking a extreme radical to be the VP nominee. mspart

I think you have spelled this out very well. Nothing left to discuss. mspart

I need to take a class? You can't even look at the facts and deduce that tax revenue has been increasing every year except as noted. Also note that from 2022 to 2023, the drop was quite a bit. Taxes rates did not go down so how do you explain that? Nothing changed, it was all the same yet revenues fell under Biden. Why? You can't answer because it breaks your paradigm. Biden economic policy has wrecked the country so revenue is down, even though tax rates did not change. This blows your Econ 101 excuse out of the water. You don't know what Econ 101 is obviously. Here's a hint: You provide an environment (includes less regulations and lower tax rates) that induce entrepreneurship and you get more revenue. You provide an environment (includes more regulations and higher tax rates) the reduce entrepreneurship and you get less revenue. That's the economic reality. With confiscatory tax rates, you will get marked declines in risk taking among entrepreneurs and you will end up with less revenue. But that is what you want and you claim revenues will go up when the evidence is against that. mspart

Looks like your laffer curve is wrong. See the chart i posted based on the data I listed. You continue to discard the lessons of history that are put right in front of you. JFK even knew this to be true and gave tax relief which brought in more revenue. mspart

Jimi - a great guitar player who died way too early of self destruction. This was perhaps a more lucid moment. He is buried not too far from where I live. https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-news/jimi-hendrixs-remains-moved-190935/ I have been to his memorial a number of times through the years. He was born in Renton WA. He is buried in Renton WA. Funny story, he played with the Isley brothers for a short time. They were at a concert and another band was there and they were a little worried that they had two guitar players. But one of the band said, "They've got 2 guitar players, but we've got Jimi" You can see this recalled in this interview; mspart

But all factors are not equal RV and you know that. When tax rates go down, that increases speculative business ventures or investment which increases employment all of which increases the federal income. As much as you deny this very basic economic fact, it is a fact and is the reason that chart I produced just for you shows the truth to your lie. If all things stayed the same and there were tax rate reduction, you would be correct. But things don't stay the same as evidence by the graph I provided. You bubble is burst, you might try looking at facts. mspart

More lies by Walz: https://thefederalist.com/2024/08/20/tim-walz-lied-about-how-his-children-were-conceived-for-years-to-attack-pro-lifers-over-ivf/ Walz’s gubernatorial reelection campaign even fundraised off campaign mailers that further declared “My wife and I used I.V.F. to start a family.” He told rallygoers in Philadelphia the night that he accepted the VP nomination that IVF is “personal for me and my family.” Mere days later, Walz claimed that “if it was up to [J.D. Vance], I wouldn’t have a family because of IVF. …” The New York Times and other corporate media did not fact-check Walz’s claims. Instead, outlets such as NYT, The Associated Press, and The Minnesota Star Tribune took the Democrat’s word for it because he came across, as NYT put it, as a “powerful messenger for the Democratic Party on a difficult issue for Republican leaders.” It wasn’t until years into his governorship and weeks into his role as Democrats’ 2024 vice presidential nominee that the propagandists running the nation’s newsrooms bothered to seek clarification about Walz’s IVF comments from the Harris-Walz campaign. Sure enough, Walz and his wife, Gwen, admitted that they relied on intrauterine insemination (IUI) to have their two children, not IVF. Bold added by me. Walz wouldn't know the truth if it hit him in the face. mspart

I can say life was better before the George Floyd incident. Those riots and unrest and increased crime due to decreaseed police have been with us ever since. mspart

For the first it depends on what you mean by cutting taxes. If you mean total tax revenue, then you are correct. If you mean a general tax decrease passed on to the citizens, it has been shown that this stimulates the economy and produces more taxes than was supposedly reduced. So in that case, the first sentence is not true. Similar for the second sentence although generally speaking, cutting spending has a greater effect on deficit spending than cutting taxes. From data https://www.thebalancemoney.com/current-u-s-federal-government-tax-revenue-3305762 As you can see there are very few years where revenue actually declined. During Bush years, and Obama years revenue declined. There have been many tweeks to tax rates since 1962 but most all gave more revenue growth. Some were raising tax rates and some reduced, but money coming in grew. Don't let facts get in the way of making your point though RV. mspart mspart

She only has agreed to 2 debates. If she is so awesome she should be able to stomp on Trump. Calling CNN, ABC, and NBC as neutral is a laugh. Fox is not neutral, but neither are they. She doesn't want to be in unfriendly territory. Afraid, is another term for that. Scared stiff is another term for that. Does she think they will correct her answers mid debate? Oh like that hasn't been done before. Does she think they will throw darts at her? What is she scared of? She's a candidate for the President. She should have an ego out the wazoo. Not scared of anything. What is Kamala scared of? Word salad my friends. That is what she and her crew is scared of. That's why she does not do interviews, or takes no questions. She knows her ideas are bereft of legitimacy and can't be proved wrong before the media or the nation. Also, she is on the defensive in accepting Trump's offer of debates. He is directing her, not the other way around. As soon as she got the call, she should have said, I will honor the Sep 10 date and here are 2 others. Take it or leave it Trump. But she didn't because she is scared and is now shamed into acceding to 1 more than she actually should. Don't look forward to a third debate, she's not up to it. And that's who Ds want to be President!! Ha ha hoo hooo. mspart

Covid vaccinnes were maybe good for those with the greatest threat - comorbidities such as obesity, diabetes, poor health, poor immune system, poor cardiovascular. Below is covid deaths by age. Up to 45 years of age, statistically speaking there was not a reason to make those people get the vaccine. The hysteria over it was way overblown. I hear commercials about getting your 6 month old vaccinated. Truth be told it is not a vaccine, it is the same as a flu shot. It should prevent you from getting it and if you do get it, symptoms should be less. That is not a true vaccine. As we know, the shot does not necessarily stop the virus. It might lessen the symptoms but people who get the shot still get the covid. Look no further than to Fauci or Biden. mspart

Trump went on CNN and will go on ABC and NBC. What is Harris afraid of? Trump is not afraid, proposes 3 debates and Kamala will not do 3 debates. Why is she afraid? Why won't she talk to the media? Why will she not take questions? D's, if this is the candidate of your dreams, you should get better dreams. mspart
