Professional gamblers may need to find a new profession. The final version of the big, beautiful bill that will be signed into law by President Trump on Friday contains the tax provision that limits deductions for losses to 90 percent. It has caused widespread consternation among those who make their living by gambling. And by those who make their living by getting people to gamble. Representative Dina Titus (D-Nevada), whose district includes Las Vegas, believes that the new law will nudge people away from legal gambling to illegal operations.

poor little pathetic Jimmy...

so they replaced durable and reliable with cheap? shame edit: are they the same inside diameter where you could trim the tubes and install the earlier bushings?

During his first term in office, President Trump oversaw a substantial increase in the national debt and budget deficits. Key Takeaways: Significant Debt Increase: The national debt rose by approximately $7.8 trillion during Trump's term, according to ProPublica. Fiscal Deterioration: The federal budget deficit increased significantly, reaching nearly 4% of the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) in 2018 and 4.6% in 2019, exceeding the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office's (CBO) initial projections. The deficit in fiscal year 2020 reached a level not seen since World War II. Contributing Factors: Tax Cuts: The 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, which included a reduction in the corporate tax rate, significantly reduced federal revenue. Spending Increases: The administration approved large increases in government spending, including: Pandemic relief legislation (e.g., CARES Act) Legislation raising discretionary spending caps Increased defense spending Comparison to Previous Administrations: The growth in the annual deficit under Trump was the third largest relative to the size of the economy, exceeded only by George W. Bush and Abraham Lincoln. Unlike Bush and Lincoln, who faced foreign conflicts and a civil war respectively, Trump's deficit increases occurred during a period of economic growth and low unemployment. Proposed but Unenacted Deficit Reduction: President Trump's budget proposals outlined substantial deficit reduction measures, but nearly all of these proposed savings were not enacted into law. In essence, despite campaign promises to reduce the national debt, the Trump administration oversaw a substantial increase due to tax cuts and spending increases, culminating in a significant worsening of the fiscal situation, particularly before and during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The Congressional Budget Office (CBO) estimates that the "One Big Beautiful Bill Act" (OBBBA), a major piece of legislation, will increase deficits by nearly $3.3 trillion over the next 10 years. This increase is a result of reduced revenues and outlays, as well as additional debt-service costs. The CBO's dynamic estimate, which considers how the bill might affect the economy, projects a slightly lower increase in deficits, but still in the trillions. Here's a more detailed breakdown: Conventional Estimate: The CBO initially estimated that the bill would increase primary deficits by $2.4 trillion over the 2025-2034 period, according to the Congressional Budget Office. This estimate includes a $3.7 trillion reduction in revenues and a $1.3 trillion reduction in outlays. Debt-Service Costs: The CBO also estimated that the bill would increase debt-service costs by $551 billion over the 10-year period, due to increased interest rates. Dynamic Estimate: When considering the economic effects of the bill, the CBO's dynamic estimate projects a $3.4 trillion increase in deficits, including interest, according to the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget. This increase is driven by higher interest rates resulting from the bill, outweighing any gains from increased economic output. Debt Increase: The CBO estimates that, under the bill, debt held by the public at the end of 2034 would increase from 117.1% to 123.8% of gross domestic product. all good with this @Skidooski ?

don't forget to give Jimmy a reach around

The Declaration of Independence was adopted on July 4, 1776, by the Continental Congress. However, the key vote to declare independence from Great Britain actually occurred on July 2, 1776, when the Continental Congress approved the Lee Resolution. This resolution, proposed by Richard Henry Lee, declared the thirteen American colonies to be free and independent states. The Declaration of Independence, drafted primarily by Thomas Jefferson, served as the formal explanation and justification for this declaration. I celebrate on July 2nd...

I'll be here as long as you are... probably longer by the looks of you.

plenty of shade, close the curtains on the sunny side, fans in the windows at night... not terrible. we have several of these... some to bring in cooler air and some to exhaust the warm air https://www.walmart.com/ip/Shinic-9-3-Speed-Twin-Window-Fan-with-Removable-Bug-Screen-Fully-Assembled-22-to-33-1-2-White/2595014606?wmlspartner=wlpa&selectedSellerId=0&selectedOfferId=6D8E166444D348809FB5630F9EE1267B&conditionGroupCode=1&wl13=2127&gclsrc=aw.ds&adid=222222222772595014606_117755028669_12420145346&wl0=&wl1=g&wl2=c&wl3=501107745824&wl4=pla-394283752452&wl5=1028269&wl6=&wl7=&wl8=&wl9=pla&wl10=8175035&wl11=local&wl12=2595014606&veh=sem_LIA&gclsrc=aw.ds&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=12420145346&gbraid=0AAAAADmfBIpqc8lHuotqsjaj9BREavTx8&gclid=Cj0KCQjw953DBhCyARIsANhIZoZqlNC9J8hS9-qc_ZNICfzIDsfMKb7hQDfDq5TvILZvxUG-2QB4ir8aAgfhEALw_wcB

knowing that it bothers several of you... also

heard from a coworker 51/39 was very busy from Wed night through last night when he headed home. we typically go up the weekend before and weekend after holiday weekends, mostly to avoid traffic. it was also hot as fuck this past week and the only a/c in the near 100yo place is the actual lake, so we're happy to be home (lol).

yup, we left last night and saw all the tards heading north which I prefer to avoid... leaving for a wedding in southern Wi tomorrow so I'll see them all again on Sunday going south. daughter is doing stuff with her friends today, we're relaxing in the AC and taking the puppy out on the boat to watch fireworks this evening.

neither will a lot of high earners... my uncle for example was done paying in by February for decades... The Social Security income cap, also known as the taxable maximum, has a history of increases since the program's inception. In 1937, the cap was set at $3,000, while in 2025, it is $176,100. The cap is adjusted annually based on the national average wage index. Here's a more detailed look at the history: Early Years (1937-1974): The taxable maximum was initially set at $3,000 and increased sporadically by Congress. 1975 and Beyond: Since 1975, the taxable maximum has generally increased at the same rate as average wages each year. This means the cap has risen more consistently over time to reflect wage growth. Impact of the Cap: The taxable maximum serves as a cap on both the amount of earnings subject to Social Security taxes and the amount of earnings used to calculate benefits. Historical Trends: In 1937, the cap was $3,000, and only 3.1% of workers had earnings at or above the cap. By the 1960s, the percentage of workers with earnings at or above the cap rose to over one-third. Since the 1970s, the cap has risen significantly, with only about 5-6% of workers having earnings that meet or exceed it. Current Status: In 2025, the Social Security wage base (taxable maximum) is $176,100. The Social Security Administration (SSA) provides detailed information on the taxable maximum, including historical figures. https://taxpolicycenter.org/sites/default/files/statistics/pdf/ssrate_historical_2.pdf but hey... look at all the nice COLA's The Social Security cost-of-living adjustment (COLA) for 2025 is 2.5%, according to the Social Security Administration (SSA). This increase will be effective starting with benefits payable in January 2025. For a retired worker, this translates to an average increase of $49 per month, according to Congress.gov. The COLA is designed to help Social Security beneficiaries keep up with the rising cost of living. Here's a breakdown of the COLAs from 2020 to 2025: 2020: 1.3% 2021: 1.3% 2022: 5.9% 2023: 8.7% 2024: 3.2% 2025: 2.5% and, had the elected 'greatest generation' and 'boomers' in office properly funded the mechanisms earlier we might not run the well nearly dry... by my 65th birthday. In 2035, the Social Security program is projected to face a significant financial challenge. The Social Security Trustees project that the combined Old-Age and Survivors Insurance (OASI) and Disability Insurance (DI) trust funds will be depleted, meaning they will be unable to pay scheduled benefits in full. This doesn't mean the program will end, but it does mean that, without changes, benefits would need to be reduced. Here's a more detailed breakdown: Trust Fund Depletion: The Social Security trust funds, which accumulate surpluses in years where income exceeds costs, are projected to be depleted by 2035. This depletion is primarily due to the increasing number of retirees (especially baby boomers) and a slower growth in the number of contributing workers. Benefit Reductions: If the trust funds are depleted, Social Security would still be able to pay some benefits, but not the full amount currently promised. The Social Security Administration (.gov) estimates that it could pay about 75-83% of scheduled benefits from payroll taxes alone. Possible Solutions: There are various proposals to address this shortfall, including: Raising the full retirement age: This would delay the age at which people can claim full benefits. Increasing the payroll tax cap: Currently, income over a certain amount ($168,600 in 2024) is not subject to the Social Security payroll tax. Increasing or removing this cap could generate more revenue. Adjusting benefits: This could involve reducing the growth of benefits for future retirees. Increasing taxes on higher earners: Some proposals suggest raising taxes on higher-income individuals to support the program. Political Considerations: Social Security reform is a politically sensitive issue, and finding a solution that satisfies both parties is challenging. Impact on Individuals: The potential for benefit cuts in 2035 is a serious concern for retirees and those planning for retirement. Understanding the potential impact and exploring options for personal retirement planning is important. hope you get some of yours buddy because it appears to me the boomers are fucking everyone right behind them again and my generation is first in line... but I'll be fine.

hooray for the greedy boomers who helped put us $37 trillion in debt, are draining the life out of social security and medicare, didn't fund their fair share of these social entitlement programs their entire lives and could give two fucks about the generations behind them that they're leaving the bill!!!

as I don't have a Catalyst to look at or any of our sleds at home...
