@bravoCo104498 Their portfolios should be tied to the budget.
Run a deficit? You lose that %. All the gains plus however much you cost us.
These ghouls lose us almost 40% per year while their personal portfolios make double the market.
@dcreedACK It hurts to admit that a generally well-liked player core didn’t take advantage of their window. Plenty of chances, didn’t convert.
The cracks were showing before the end
@wil_da_beast630 The most important point is EVERYWHERE has been awesome.
Scotland in Boston? Awesome
Germans in Houston? Awesome
Driving big trucks? Awesome
Buc-ees? Awesome
Driving through small town America? Awesome
Grass in massive NFL stadiums? Awesome
We’re all having a blast
@vrexec It would be better to capture all of it as comp on the W2 and then figure out the tax carve-outs.
But it works out better for somebody to have it this way. Nothing is dumb by accident
we prefer being dishonest about money I guess. Not surprising that we have $40T in debt
@AlexTaylorNews Yeah, 43 is hot anywhere (110F). Head for the cellars

Ro is the new Burnie: whip up the base with populist-left rhetoric, then bend the knee to the anointed corporatist ghoul
@KurtAVFC “short attention span theater”
It’s hard to miss a play because you know when they happen. Then you get to not pay attention or be distracted by your phone until the next play.
Neither is inherently superior. They’re both kids games. People grew up watching different things
@Aves_Clovis@StatisticUrban Yep. Just like a 5% wealth tax would crash the market
Tesla lost nearly $1T in cap when Elon sold shares and paid effectively a 3% wealth tax.
The tax revenue was only $11B
@Devon_Eriksen_ History is only the last 10,000 years
0.1% is 10 years ago
So… Barack Obama invented capitalism 150 years after Marx wrote a critique of it?
Stop listening to these children
@Badhombre There are estimated to be about 10,000 homeless in his district
He could give all of them $20k and still have over $30M in wealth
Spending money taken through taxation isn’t charity on the part of the politician
