The tax bill picked “winners and losers.”
Looks like they got you pegged correctly then. My wife and I got a huge cut. Karma I guess.
Corporations pay taxies and turn around and recover those taxes from the people that buy their products. So ultimately, the individual pays them.
It’s ridiculously simple, but somehow you want to buy into the illusion that raising corporate taxes somehow has no impact on the individual.
Sorry Sky that ain’t how it works.
You are correct though that talking more about it is a waste of time. I believe I predicted that to begin with. Be happy with your illusion.
Vox.com? Seriously?

Collins will lose. "Rank choice voting" will guarantee a RAT win.

Everybody always says this. Companies will raise prices to offset taxes IF THEY CAN but that depends on the elasticity of demand for the product. Some products, if they raise prices, consumers will stop buying or find alternatives for. Then their choices are to cut costs or lose money.

Thank you very much, Ichabod1, for inserting the science of economics where it is much needed.
Those of us who have been involved in product/marketing/pricing decisions are fully aware the the price elasticity of demand is a REAL THING--a very predictable and dependable result of price changes in the marketplace.
I never bought the debunking efforts on the nude pictures. You did. Congrats. I have no interest to get into that subject here.
I figured I get that reaction from someone. There are a lot of whacky things out there that people convince themselves of, and you clearly have a bunch of them on your plate. I'm happy for you. Why don't you stick to Q for now? Maybe we can agree on its significance.
Thanks, defconw. I just noticed these posts, and appreciate your support. Q discussions sometimes digress into stuff where some of the people here are a little more out there than others. I don’t judge, much of what we are doing on this board is considered out there to most people. I don’t insult the ones I think are a little too much for my taste (the Michael stuff, or that whole Payseur thing, for example). To each his own. But these guys seemed to think they KNOW the TRUTH, and they can therefore insult those who disagree with their pet beliefs. Oh well.
Notta prob. Someone did facial comparisons, also clearly not the same person.
S’okay, for some reason a big effort was made to get that idea going, for reason or reasons unknown to me... I think to take peoples’ attention away from the fact that SAD ain’t the Ma and the Kenyan ain’t the Pa!
Why are you yelling? You are pretty emotional about this one post.
My post:
“If you had an executive selling 50% of his holdings in a short time frame, that would be very revealing. 5%, not so much.”
Your reply:
“HOW ABOUT SELLING 99% OF YOUR STOCK IN A 3YR PERIOD??? WOULD YOU CONSIDER THAT REVEALING???”
Isn’t what you said consistent with what I said? I wasn’t replying to a post that showed FB stats over a 3 year period. The stats you cite later ARE indicative of a large program where insiders are dumping a lot of their FB stock. That is exactly the kind of data I would want to know before I drew any conclusions from it. Not the snapshot of smaller sales that I was commenting on.
I’ve not seen you so worked up before. I hope you’re feeling better today.
Check out Lisa mei Crowley Twitter. Her link to quodverum proves very informative. Right down your lane.
*Rex points out that Mueller, Barr, Giuliani, other main characters (well known to all of us) all worked with Trump in 1981 against mob pressure on business and corporations in NYC.
An in-depth chronology of the FBI, Trump, and a Trump friend/business associate of interest
Thanks for the update! Great job of cataloging the necessary details in such a concise way!
You are a VERY LATE comer to the birther subject.
You are years and many threads of thousands of posts late.
Those of us who know find your stupidity and arrogance annoying.
Ya gotta wake up and acknowledge when you are missing something and just wrong.
Missed it, thanks!
Since nobody has found any 0bama birth announcements in the widely available Chicago newspapers, then maybe a search should begin under a different name for the girls.
Larry Kudlow was on Newsmakers, on CSpan, this pm.
FYI, saying that the Trump Repatriation capital is coming in for 2018,
at 750 BILLION DOLLARS!
Kudlow couldnt recall, off hand, what the Joint Tax Committees numbers were, but said that amount has got to be 3x what they projected!
He added that money, by the way, is going back into Wages, Bonuses, Dividends, Share Buy Backs and Capital Spending.
He disputed that the US economy is on some kind of sugar high, when Nancy friggin Cook (a Politico reporter) said... Wont the tax reductions and regulations all Peter out????? (Gawd)
The Repatriation is Permanent, and to remember all of this was/is conceived over a term of FIVE years, not One or two. He said our current First Quarter is a little soft, due too the Government Shut Down that he called a glitch, but the stock market is good, consumer confidence is up, the value of the dollar is high. etc.
Obama transgender-blow my mind.
