Local radio talk-show dude read a list today of something like two dozen false racial/anti-Muslim/homophobic incidents. He could've kept going but ran out of time.

Well I am not going to defend Trump, but there was an item in WaPo basically saying that they really hope it was real because it would be bad for the cause otherwise. Wanting something like this to be real, unbelievable, what have we come to.

Mr&Mrs G. reacted to Dashinka in Amazon disses AOC on way out of NYC: 'We don’t want to work in this environment'
No doubt. I guess NYC can do without the economic growth this would have brought, it is hard to invest zero tax dollars in anything, but of course she never had to worry about where the money was coming from.

Wait until she figures out that there is no 3 billion to spend in her community. Someone needs explain to her what a subsidy actually is
"We were subsidizing those jobs. The city was paying for those jobs. Frankly, if we were willing to give away $3 billion dollars for this deal, we could invest those $3 billion in our district, ourselves, if we wanted to. We could hire out more teachers. We can fix our subways. We can put a lot of people to work for that amount of money if we wanted to."

Mr&Mrs G. reacted to Voice of Reason in Green New Deal: Ocasio-Cortez aims to make air travel obsolete, aid those ‘unwilling’ to work
Yeah, same here. I knew I paid taxes, but it wasn't until after college and doing my own taxes for some time before I became fully aware how it all.works.
They don't even teach kids how to balance a checkbook in high school, so I doubt taxation is much discussed.

Im curious what year was that?
I hadn't got a clue about tax bands when I left school, not a mention of it in the classroom neither. Just to make sure it's not because I'm an old git with an old education I asked my daughter's. One is in her first year of college and she learned nothing about tax bands in school. Another of my daughter's gets lost when she looks at her pay slip, she also learned nothing about tax bands in school.

If the intention is to tax the rich then why is Bill Gates saying the top 400 earners currently only pay about 20% income tax. Surely it would require a more targeted taxation plan on assets rather than income. I'm guessing this 70% rate won't catch the mega rich it will get those in categories below whose money is income based rather than in assets.
"The one thing that never gets much press: The IRS shows the statistics for the top 400 people of the highest income and the rate they pay ... It's about a 20% rate, so it has nothing to do with the 39.6% marginal ordinary income rate," Gates said. "So it's a misfocus. If you focus on that, you're missing the picture."
