But that's most of Washington? That's not really enough to piss off either party. He's got to be annoying to be around too; people would be cool with his shittiness and his corruption if he were charismatic.

Wisconsin republicans loved Walker almost solely because liberals despised him. It was tribalism at its finest.

I'm having a crisis of faith. That annoying little voice of reason in my head is whispering to me. "It's time for . . . . a New American Century (TM)" Forgive me Lord President Trump for my weakness. Guide me through these troubled times.

Triglav posted:Federal taxes are not regressive. Local taxes may be regressive somewhere, but federal taxes are not. Even if federal taxes were as simple as a single flat rate and a generous standard deduction, they would not be regressive. Yeah as a whole they're not regressive, but the payroll tax, which makes up a huge chunk of it, is. quote:I have no idea what the second half of your paragraph means. Financialization of the economy? Economization of finance? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Financialization Its a pretty common descriptor of the pooling of increasing amounts of capital accruing to the highest earning Americans being turned into financial instruments, in turn creating a destabilizing effect on the economy. quote:What do you think Social Security was created for, solely to increase government revenues and the United States' bond rating overseas? It was created because citizens were going broke, from misfortune, a loss of their abilities, and a lack of personal financial planning. It was created as a basic safety net. I agree with this. I don't see how raising the payroll cap affects this at all. quote:That's fine. Many people build multiple safety nets. It's good financial planning. It's also good economics to have more people paid more through more years of their life so more things are bought and more things are sold and more taxes are collected. The general assertion seems plausible enough, but what are you saying here specifically? Are you talking about raising the retiree age needed to attain social security, or am I misconstruing you?

It’s going to be a real wall.” Trump has repeatedly used the phrase "We have millions of people that are waiting online to come here-- legally." I always picture millions of people sitting overseas and refreshing their internet browsers repeatedly waiting for their immigration documents.

The more I think about it, the more I think that Chris Christie had one of the best nights. Kiddie table debate or no, he came out with a plan to attack Democrats that would appeal to the eventual winner of the debates and make him useful beyond his current failed bid, while starting a messaging point about him being tough on crime and a law-and-order Republican that could lead to a post-election niche for himself. Meanwhile, Carly Fiorina committed the double sin of attacking her fellow Republicans in a Jindalesque manner while doing too little to improve her slim chances of becoming the nominee. Someone is clearly giving her bad advice on her ability to win the nomination, and all she is accomplishing is proving she is unreliable in her role as a Clinton attack dog. She is isolating herself from further opportunities.

I think Ben Carson's been huffing his own fumes for the last few decades. His own life seemed to be so perfect, so Gifted hands (tm) and now he thinks he's the smartest, best guy for everything. I don't know, after a few years of getting all those awards, a made-for-TV movie about you, and just non-stop praise, I'd build up an ego too.

Yeah, if they cast Cuba Gooding Jr as me in a movie about me being awesome, I'd probably become a little loony. But mostly because they cast a middle-aged black guy to portray a gangly white boy in his mid 20s.

People who apply for residency really do sit and refresh their browsers/check the immigration site to see if they win the literal immigration lottery. I doubt that's what trump means though.

Like someone else mentioned, saying "on line" instead of "in line" is an NYC thing. I didn't even know "in line" was more common until I went to college.
