@GrageDustin@MM112Bent Gov race is basically irrelevant now anyway. Just falling on the sword against Klobuchar
If Flanagan get the DFL senate nod, thats a potential win.
@ramit I understand it.
The only way to stop the generational poverty is for someone to fall on the sword.
Set the kids up for stability, then when the time comes, go find yourself an accident and let them collect the life insurance too.
@TSG83@JustinKatzRI@UziCryptoo The point he’s making is your actually not being taxes on those gains. You are being taxed on the levy increases.
If everyone in a jurisdiction goes up 20% in valuation, but all the levys remain flat. Taxes would remain flat. Just like if everyone went down 20% in value
@JesterJum@NoOnePortant If everyones value went up 3000% but the levies you pay into stayed flat, your taxes would not increase at all.
You not paying tax on the value increase. Its on the levy increase.
@TimJongWalz@KSTP Maybe thats true in Anoka specifically, I just want people to realize that all the shit rolls downhill. The State is a villian, pulling funding from schools to give to daycare fraud schemes, pulling LGA to give to pet projects.
@TimJongWalz@KSTP These are mostly State mandates. The state is so mismanaged that local government keeps having more and more dumped on them, while the state never cuts a penny.
These local gov increases are often State issues.
This guy struck a nerve with twitter parents, but honestly they are all just misrepresenting what he said.
He’s just pointing out that any non-gifted kid is going to have to out in a lot more work to play a varsity sport in a bigger school than a rec league offers.
Bad news, dude:
If your kid doesn’t play travel/AAU they have no chance of playing varsity in high school.
Only exceptions would be small, rural schools without many players to choose from.
Any decent sized high school, every kid on varsity plays travel.
@sartell_he89275@Ria1984 Day jobs are not easier. Soul sucking 9-5’s will never be easier than staying home and living a fulfilling life raising your children.
Ricky Gervais on 60 Minutes Makes a Crystal-Clear Case for Free Speech
He put it perfectly: the great thing about freedom of speech is that I can say what I want, and you can say you're offended, and I get to decide whether I care or not.
Because let's be honest, there's nothing you can say that someone, somewhere won't find offensive.
That's why blasphemy laws are so absurd, they're basically trying to protect an all-powerful deity from having its feelings hurt.
At the end of the day, we should be free to criticise any idea.
Just because you're offended doesn't automatically mean you're right.
Spot on, Ricky. Free speech isn't about never upsetting anyone, it's about the right to speak anyway.
@FluffityF@mcuban I pay $4000 on income taxes - I pay $27,000 on income taxes to a state and federal government ripe with fraud. I’m sick of all the talk about property taxes - I want to talk about my INCOME taxes.
Something the founders never intended us to pay.
@StraitOuttaMinn By attending games, you are letting this team down. By not holding out until the Pohlads sell, you are sentencing them to an inevitable demise, and a future where support from ownership is non-existent.
Do not capitulate. This roster and all future rosters are counting on us.
@tlschwerz We must resist the temptation to attend games. Don’t let this team down by capitulating after a few wins. Think long run. Make the Pohlads sell the team. Don’t be tempted to go back to abusive spouse.
@Twins We must resist the temptation to attend games. Don’t let this team down by capitulating after a few wins. Think long run. Make them sell the team.
@austingomez65 Just the other day I was telling some guys at practice that at some point during his career that Austin Gomez really made a fan out of me.
I’ll miss watching ya.
Fare thee well.
