Obviously I was half-serious. Lots of great things came out of Germany and Austria and whatever we call them now (those names didn't exist for most of history).
But those nuts went from being rather caveman like to being philosophers and musicians in a very short amount of time, and that is...concerning. I blame aliens.
Gains are taxed. If you lose or break even, you're fine.
Different tax rates for gains, depending on time. Long term gains are taxed roughly half the rate.
It really is BS that investing gets taxed. It kind of chokes investing by normies and keeps investing in the realm of the "professionals".
I paid over $4200 last year to the IRS. Worst was when I owed over $8k.
All because my stocks did well, I sold them, and lived off of them until I could find a job. The fact I was living off of investments instead of taking fucking welfare cost me money.
Clearly, the "safety net" is not for those of us who keep their shit together.
Well, after that rant at the end, there is no question to me that Tim has swallowed the red pill finally. Yeah, he wants to keep saying he is a "liberal", but at this point, it's just something he says to maintain "internet cred".
Once you've seen the light, it's impossible to be blind again.
It's abbreviation is ED (kek).
It's job isn't oversight or control of public education, which is a state by state thing. When it comes to that the department is more of a aggregator of education statistics.
It's primary role is in the administration of federal grants and loans for secondary education.
What teachers do isn't really under their purview.
Yeah. Does anyone seriously think Russia, China, and Iran like President Trump?
I mean come on. I'll accept ignorant people thinking Russia likes him because they were duped with the whole Russiagate crap, but there's no excuse to believe China or Iran wants him to win.
Yes, but the air traffic controllers weren't legally allowed to strike in the first place, nor can any emergency personnel or those who work in strategic infrastructure, like ports, airports, or shipping.
Teachers don't really fall into that category, so I'm not sure what President Trump could do about it.
Yeah I don't get it. Ohio went hard for Trump in 2016, even with that idiot governor we had (Kasich the never-trumper). By the time I left Ohio, it seemed like everyone hated Kasich, then they turn around and elect that milquetoast DeWine.
Ohio really needs a good governor.
Yep. The president mentioned the newest numbers would be good on Lou Dobbs earlier this week. He was right.
I love how every time he does that the media rolls out their economic "experts" to tell everyone the President is wrong, the numbers will be bad, we should all be worried, etc. And every time they are wrong.
We like to assign nefarious organizational attributes to evil whether or not it exists. The reality is that evil people are enemies of each other as much as they are enemies of us. Incompetence is baked into the evil pie. Too much selfishness to even contemplate true organization.
Well finding out you were wrong about a lot of things you considered pretty core to your identity can't be fun.
But the feeling of liberation that eventually comes with it will turn that frown upside down.
