@BrandSanderson @torbooks Stormlight Archives gives me hope. Seeing characters struggle with more issues than simple narrative challenges connects with me like no other series. It is healing to read. I'm so excited for Wind and Truth!!

[Marshall @Marvelousme30]

Checking out Bluesky. Seems VERY similar to whatever this app calls itself.

@Mac_The_Jazz I think we need to have better political conversations, as well as community involvement with local government. The general lack of understanding and apathetic approach to things that affect our lives is something that needs to be improved

[Marshall @Marvelousme30]

I think this world craves Authentic Integrity. I do not see this in general. Not from any corner of society. Not in the way we need it.

And that is why the Jazz need a top 5 pick in the 2025 and 2026 draft, you know, to make things right in the world.

@MenaceSocietyUT @KUER He's just 'protecting' capitalism

[Marshall @Marvelousme30]

@hansenjames I'd say top 8 at minimum. I'd be ok if it was top 8 in 2026 as well. No rush.

@foxonabox_ I'm convinced Rogan is fake sincere about everything. Just watch how every interview he is 'agreeable' with them to get more of a conversation. He's in it to appeal to his audience and gain more money. That's it.

[Marshall @Marvelousme30]

@CHALVIN2018 I think that's his most likely outcome, but do think he has the potential to be much more. To me, that makes it fun to watch him play.

[Marshall @Marvelousme30]

@ArtTakesNote Who would the Jazz have drafted in that hypothetical scenario?

[Marshall @Marvelousme30]

@Yuriuspapers201 @VegaPlaybook If argue her #1 economic policy is the small startup deduction increase or her first home loan assistance program. Taxes are something that Congress really does and would be nearly impossible to change like that.

[Marshall @Marvelousme30]

@Yuriuspapers201 @VegaPlaybook Where in her official policy document does it say unrealized capital gains? I read her policy PDF a few weeks ago and the closest I can currently see is a reference to taxing billionaires.

[Marshall @Marvelousme30]

@jemelehill The integrity of the news has reached a new low. Even the headlines aren't emphasizing the action of the billionaires enough. It's more about them defying the thoughts of the newspaper than the actual act of endorsing.

@josh_furlong Gotta love seeing those Utah Raptors

[Marshall @Marvelousme30]

@Cody16991078 @wingod @RBReich So if he's paying 30% on his 10 million, I am understanding the proposal to mean that he wouldn't pay any unrealized capital gains tax. At least that's how I read the policy.

[Marshall @Marvelousme30]

@Cody16991078 @wingod @RBReich So it'd be a reduction in his reinvestment capability. He'd likely reserve a certain amount for tax purposes. Kind of like most normal people.

[Marshall @Marvelousme30]

@Cody16991078 @wingod @RBReich Currently, wouldn't Warren Buffet be paying taxes only on the cash he brings in directly from salary/ realized gains? That would mean he's no longer investing quite as much of his salary as he used to, but his current investments he's acquired are fine as long as he pays 25%

[Marshall @Marvelousme30]

@Cody16991078 @wingod @RBReich Interesting, Cody. I'm trying to wrap my head around them being forced to sell off their stocks 'each year' claim. If I'm super rich and have a normal salary of say, $3M. Instead of selling off assets, wouldn't I simply pay $750k to avoid the unrealized gains tax/penalty?

[Marshall @Marvelousme30]

@TCUisbetter @RBReich Do you know if the economists that reviewed this plan accounted for changes in tax behaviors for these individuals? IMO, the fear that it could trickle into everyone is what makes this proposal so controversial. Would you rather tax cash received on certain kinds of loans?

[Marshall @Marvelousme30]

@TCUisbetter @RBReich For sure, real estate moguls leverage this quite a bit as well. I'm not a 'fan' of unrealized gains taxes. A flat rate seems more fair, but any major change like this would be incredibly difficult to get the buy in for in congress.

[Marshall @Marvelousme30]

@wingod @Cody16991078 @RBReich Sounds like you have it all figured out. Care to explain this article?
