  1. I was agreeing with you just adding in that how kids are raised can make them killers as well. How do we prosecute that? What about parents who give easy access to alcohol and a kid kills people in a DD accident? No doubt I want some parent responsibility its just where do we start and stop? Hell my parents had these cool wildlife whiskey bottles that they never drank out of. They were basically water because we would drink them. There is a difference between giving a kid a gun and just not locking it up. I think in this case they bought him the gun(s).
  2. Yeah access to guns isn't the only way kids become killers.
  3. Inflation is both parties fault which means its the American people's fault. If enough American's simply stopped paying taxes they would have no choice but to spend less.
  4. So typical of people when looking at big corps financials. Oh my god they paid a $300 million dividend! GM's net income from normal operations is about 12% and normalized EBITDA around 18%. If you don't like how a company is ran don't buy their products. https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/GIS/financials/
  5. I've never claimed the counts or recounts were wrong. Both sides especially the dems use to complain that mail in ballots were ripe for fraud. My debate has been related to sig verification, voting rules changing without passing the legislature (per the us constitution) which included taking ballots that weren't filled out right or changing the dates they could come in, illegal drop boxes (Wis supreme court ruled they were illegal). This goes without mentioning the interference by the DOJ or IC on numerous levels. In any case Biden won and the country has had to deal with that.
  6. Good point.. Funny how those three closest states stopped counting and had significant vote dumps. Imagine the coincidence.
  7. How much more are you willing to pay to pay down the debt. Serious question.
  8. Oh FFS. Hold your little curser thing over those states and subtract the differences or do you need me to do the math for you? Trump had 232 EC votes. Those three states are 37 votes. He was only about 40K votes from 269. https://www.cnn.com/election/2020/results/president
  9. I've 100% been supportive of changing the rules on carried interest and am open on deferred compensation. I'm 100% against a wealth tax on assets. Keep in mind the people you are talking about above pay extremely high taxes on the profits the companies they own pay to the govt. For us S corp owners it goes on our personal taxes and we personally pay them. For them (c corp) it goes on and is paid by the corp but as owners its basically the same thing. Buffett is really a false narrative because not only as part owner of BH but basically all BH does is own companies. Those companies profits are taxed are are essentially paid by him just thru the corps themselves. They don't get off as scott free as you make it out to sound.
  10. Really? Liberals don't say these 2 things all the time? So I'll ask do you support a wealth tax to pay down the deficit? yeah... and the 1% own what percentage of the wealth? at what point is enough enough?
  11. He lost by about 40,000 votes in 3 states. Arizona, Georgia and Wisconsin all were very close and would have put him at 269. MI and PA were also close.
  12. Almost nobody gave Trump a chance in 2016 and I mean almost nobody. The political pundits are far more concerned of his chances now than they were then.
  13. Some people simply cannot understand that one can accept the results knowing Biden is the President yet are still able to highlight all the anomalies in how the election was handled in a number of states. Kind of like OJ. Yes the jury found him not guilty but we all know there was some fuckery involved.
  14. What % of Hailey primary voters were democraps? Goes to show how dysfunctional the National polls are compared to his analysis.
  15. You need to quit acting like a conservative who cares about the National Debt on here because Trump was not great on spending but Biden is 100x's worse.
  16. Ah yes spoken like a true liberal. Congrats. Are we now going to discuss wealth vs income? Let me guess you support a wealth tax?
  17. Looky who sprints in to defend the jab....Fucking priceless. Same ones that should have Ukraine flags and anti Tump signs in their sigs. . It's genetic I tell you.
  18. Dude the vast majority of the wealthy pay a huge % of the taxes. I'm all for the MC and supporting them but they simply aren't carrying the income tax burden in this country.
