  1. FDR tried that it didn't work, revenue went up when they lowered taxes. If you can't understand the 99% example then there's no chance you can comprehend income elasticity or why raising taxes even when down at 35 to 40% could lower revenue.
  2. And what is "fair share?" If a"fair share" exists then why do so many pay no tax on their income? If tax rate is 99% and you raise it to 100% will tax revenue go up or down? If tax rate is 1% and you lower it to 0% will tax revenue go up or down? This is to illustrate that there is always a point where lowering the tax rate will increase tax revenue and there's always a point where raising tax rate will increase tax revenue. If you don't know anything about income elasticity then you have no idea what you are talking about. Biden knows nothing about income elasticity thus when he says "fair share" ...

  4. Tell us about the pain.
  5. Gallagher did pretty well with farm kids.
  6. And don't forget him drawing down the SPR at political points in time to temporarily & artificially lower prices. And these decisions go totally contrary to the green agenda as the greens would want higher prices. High prices Memorial & Labor weekends etc. should mean more folks stay at home because can't afford to travel thus save the climate and planet correct? Surely folks noticed the bump in climate change when Biden dumped SPR on the market.
  7. You shirley mean second best Iowa coach but if "coaches" wouldn't that be 2nd & 3rd? PS: it is hard to find good interns these days let me tell you ...
  8. Well sure but Dr. Jill is around him every day and says he's fine. Who are you going to believe this quack or the good Dr. Jill?
  9. but I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic what about those terrorists he's already been letting across the border. No one invoked 25th for that are you suggesting they might if he can't show up for the Thanksgiving turkey pardon?
  10. There's nothing in the Constitution that says you have to have a functioning brain to be President correct?
  11. I dont think any saw a ""figure of speech" thing here this seemed pretty direct and simple: eat hat. No one is gonna forget this, this thread will be bumped as long as necessary, said eatery had better be live on YouTube. If all you have is a bunch of old dirty sweaty hats I'd suggest you go buy one thats more tasty. PS: maybe the good folks at Flo will broadcast this event.
  12. Folks don't want parks no more they want pickleball courts. Just mostly kidding. Played pickleball in a KC park ~half mile from our vrbo, nice houses around the park. Folks in the houses don't like people using the park. They had shut down half the courts, the remote work at home folks thought it too noisy and courts weren't that close to the houses. I've found similar with cycling, some folks just get annoyed when they see others outside getting exercise.
  13. ^^^ this^^^ and also when you talk to individual people within a group or organization instead of just the leaders, you find there's actually a lot of useful back and forth cooperative discussion and things to agree on.
  14. ^^^ this ^^^ and you need to look at the genetics and parents. I was still growing first two years of college and both my sons same thing. However my great grandfather I have to use a Wkn chip and say I don't know on the growth quit age but my two sons as tall as him taller than me.
  15. Can forcing Joe, in his current physical state, to continue serving as President be considered malpractice? Does Dr. Jill have a good malpractice policy?
  16. Like said before he was yuuuge!
  17. Trump was caught J walking. He was J walking with the intent to steal a quarter out of a parking meter on the other side of the street. There's your crime, intent and thus felony. I don't know why they bothered with the 34 checks & invoices case. The J walking case was a slam dunk.
  18. Do all lobsters live under a rock?
  19. His most recent was he thought he might've got Covid on the trip so had doctors come in to test, he didn't have it. How in the world can the President of the USA catch Covid on a trip? If only he was married to a Dr. ... oh wait ... Did Trump steal the air filters from AF1 when he left office, maybe they are in the basement at ML, did the FBI fail to look?
  20. By low do you mean 1/2 or 7/8?
