The government should declare a state of emergency and deploy the armed forces to Ceuta. Then deport everyone who entered illegally and, for once, impose diplomatic consequences on Morocco.

But, as usual, Sánchez seems more interested in making more and more people dislike him.

Have we not spent the last 15 months or so ripping the proverbial out of the American administration for saying exactly this?

@chadelkinscpa I used to work at a national tax resolution firm. Once had a client who needed her debt “forgiven ASAP” - she filed a return with fake income to become eligible for a mortgage, wouldn’t pay the balance, and was mad the bank required her to resolve the balance. Deadbeats

@FortWayneCPA he's done, I don't always agree with his views but respect him for standing up for what he believes

@CrownCPA @Micha_Siegel Most of the spending (and thus higher taxes) in Europe is not from healthcare, it's pensions, and to a lesser degree welfare. Private health insurance in Europe costs anywhere from $60-250/mo. with no copay/deductible

@Micha_Siegel The US is as good as it gets... once you cross the pond it's insane unless you have a special tax regime

@KakiHouse @mariamagariz una aumenta en oferta, incluso si sea de viviendas de lujo, ayuda en bajar los precios para todos

De los creadores de "la inflación es culpa de la avaricia de los empresarios", ahora viene "el problema de la vivienda es culpa de la avaricia de los propietarios".

A ver cómo explicamos que en Austin (Texas) los propietarios se volvieron muy avariciosos y, justo después de que duplicaran los permisos de construcción, dejaron de ser avariciosos de repente.

A ver cómo le decimos a los españoles que en Austin, con un PIB per cápita (y salario) que más que duplica el de Madrid (y triplica el de España), alquilar un piso es mucho más barato (Austin: 1.100€; Madrid: 1700€ para piso de 80m2).

Todo es válido, menos reconocer lo obvio. Que construir funciona. Y que para construir se necesita liberar suelo. Y que liberar suelo no gusta porque entonces los propios políticos no pueden especular con el cambio de uso de suelo. Aquí, por alguna razón, se les olvida mencionar la avaricia.

El altruismo es algo que practicamos naturalmente con nuestros seres queridos. Con desconocidos, simplemente, no regalamos nuestro esfuerzo. La política pública debería ser realista y no imaginar unicornios.

What if there was a bank account available, that required you to deposit monthly, what you would have paid an insurance company in premiums, for an ACA silver plan. So for a family of 5 about $2100.

The amount would then be used for Stop Loss Insurance set at $30k dollars. About $300. Another $200 would be used for local Direct Primary Care for your family

The balance would be in YOUR bank account.

Like an HSA, It could only be used for approved medical expenses. If you never have any medical expenses, you will get to keep the money plus checking act level interest, when you turn 65

If you have a medical event that is more than what you have saved, your bank will loan you the money you need to pay for it, up to the $30k stop loss trigger

You would repay that amount using the monthly $1600 net deposit. Once the loan is paid off, the deposits start to accrue to you again.

This is not insurance. It’s a specially designed bank account that gives you control, support, a doctor to work with and catastrophic financial protection.

Lots of work and issues to be addressed. But I was curious what people think

Let me know !

@DanV_Barrons @BecomingCritter They have to prove intent for that. Same thing for willfully not paying taxes.

But if you post online about how you are not paying taxes and diverting money to charity you are probably the lowest hanging fruit there is

@mountainwesttax I think it's the same quality but their promotion for double usage limits during off-peak hours ended and now I'm burning through my usage super fast
