    Hollywood Reporter ^ | October 28, 2024 | Zoe G. Phillips
    The Amazon billionaire and Post owner said the paper's decision to cease presidential endorsements came from a drive to avoid the "perception of non-independence."The Washington Post owner Jeff Bezos wrote in an op-ed on Monday that the paper’s choice to cease presidential endorsements was borne from an attempt to regain the trust of its readers. “Presidential endorsements do nothing to tip the scales of an election,” Bezos wrote. “What presidential endorsements actually do is create a perception of bias. A perception of non-independence.” Post CEO Will Lewis announced in a memo on Thursday that the paper would not endorse a...

    Did the eruption of Thera cause the Ten Plagues of Egypt, such as the transformation of the Nile into blood?The eruption of the Minoan island of Thera, or Santorini, has popularly been linked to the legend of Atlantis. However, many researchers also attempt to connect it to another famous story: the Ten Plagues. The Bible tells the story of the Ten Plagues of Egypt in the Book of Exodus. Is it possible that the eruption of Thera really could have resulted in these famous Ten Plagues? How the eruption of Thera supposedly explains the Ten Plagues According to advocates of...

    One unshakable law of economics is this: What you reward, you get more of, and what you tax, you get less of. The government of the formerly Great Britain doesn't seem to understand this fundamental law. They are proposing to hike taxes and fees, and high-income and wealthy (which are not always the same thing) Brits are looking to the exits. We can hardly blame them.An exodus is being reported by bankers, financial advisers and business chiefs with experts warning that the Chancellor risks ruining hopes of faster economic growth with a widely expected increase in capital gains tax (CGT).It...

    Foot Locker is relocating its headquarters to Florida from New York. The footwear retailer said Wednesday the city of St. Petersburg will become its new corporate headquarters come late 2025. Foot Locker said it was seeking to "further build on the Company’s meaningful presence in St. Petersburg and to enable increased collaboration among teams across banners and functions, while also reducing costs." The retailer already has a "very meaningful commercial and executive team presence" in St. Petersburg, according to CEO Mary Dillon. The company won’t be requiring relocation for workers, she told analysts and investors. "Historically, that was originally the...

    A substantial share of Americans say they plan to move out of their state or even the country if the presidential candidate they oppose wins the election, according to a new poll.A survey released last week by StorageUnits.com sampled the opinions of 1,968 Americans who plan to support either former President Donald Trump or Vice President Kamala Harris in the 2024 presidential election. The poll was conducted on July 22, the day after President Joe Biden ended his bid for the Democrat nomination for president and endorsed Harris. Overall, 15% of respondents said they planned to leave their state and/or...

  • Illinois' Out-Migration Losses: Measuring The Destructive Impact On The State's Tax Base

    Wirepoints.org ^ | 07/25/2024 | Ted Dabrowski and John Klingner
    One of the most damaging impacts of Illinois’ people loss to other states is the destruction of Illinois’ tax base. When people leave in a given year, they take their incomes (adjusted gross incomes, or AGI) with them, and that means the state’s tax base suffers. A smaller tax base, everything else equal, means less tax revenues for safety, education, road repair and every other core government service – or, as is typically the case in Illinois, more debts and more tax hikes.Unfortunately, Illinois’ out-migration problem is much bigger than just a one year loss: the state has lost people...
  • Over 400,000 people formally left Germany’s Catholic Church in 2023

    In 2023, a substantial number of individuals, totaling 402,694, decided to formally dissociate themselves from the Catholic Church in Germany, a significant figure though slightly less than the record set in 2022. The German Bishops’ Conference, which came out with these statistics, said while these numbers are high, they reflect a slight decrease from the 522,821 departures recorded the previous year, indicating that this was the second-highest departure rate to date, according to National Catholic Reporter. In Germany, church membership has financial implications due to the church tax system, which is a part of the broader tax structure. Members who...

    Just when the Biden campaign thought they could buy young people's votes by canceling massive amounts of student debt, the opposite effect seems to be taking place. Two young voters, Grace Guentzel and Becky Oliveira, told Fox News host Lawrence Jones that they will not vote for President Joe Biden in November. Some of the reasons they gave were the open borders and cashless bail. Oliveira lives in New York City and gave an interesting perspective on why she became a Democrat in the first place:I grew up in the social media culture that was very dominated by left-wing propaganda,...

    Several weeks ago, I flew to Texas to visit my friend Mollie, who had left California in 2022. Whenever I told someone I was going to Texas, their first question was, “Are you moving out of California?” How different from when I moved to California in 1977… “I’m so jealous!” That was the reaction of family and friends when my husband and I announced that, after one year of marriage, we were leaving New York. It was a difficult decision because I was close to my parents, particularly my mother. For us, the primary reason was the weather. We did...

    We woke up today to a rather fascinating story. Dallas may have a new resident soon and I don't mean the NFL Chiefs coming back to their original location. This is the story:Capital giants BlackRock and Citadel are among the headline investors in a group that is seeking to bring a new national stock exchange to the Lone Star State. James H Lee, Chairman and CEO of Texas Stock Exchange, says the group leading the project has already raised $120 million. “With the demand we are seeing from investors and corporations for expanded alternatives to trade and list equities, this...

    ROME — Modern migrants share many similarities with the exodus of the Israelites from Egypt to the Promised Land, Pope Francis asserts in his message for the World Day of Migrants and Refugees 2024. The biblical narrative of Exodus, depicting the Israelites on their way to the promised land, “naturally comes to mind” when thinking of immigrants today,” the pontiff states in his message, released by the Vatican Monday. “The images of the biblical exodus and of migrants share several similarities,” the pope continues. “Like the people of Israel in the time of Moses, migrants often flee from oppression, abuse,...

    While some depict the Bible’s Passover meal and Jews’ Exodus from Egypt as a fable, archeological and other evidence squares with the Bible’s account.Tonight begins Passover, or Pasach, celebrated worldwide by Jews. As recounted in Exodus 13:3-10, this ritual meal marks their ancestors’ escape from Egyptian captivity.About three weeks earlier, Christians celebrated Easter to commemorate Jesus’ Resurrection. Judaism and Christianity share not merely monotheism, but also recount their miraculous foundations as history.Together they form the moral foundation for Western culture, a foundation that is collapsing, in part due to post-Enlightenment critiques of the historicity of these religions. But, as a...

    San Francisco has long been feared to be falling into a doom loop, a situation where taxpayers leaving the crime-ridden city results in lower tax revenues leading to cuts in services and rising taxes, making it even less desirable to live in. It can be especially devastating when a community's essential businesses, such as grocery stores, decide to leave. San Francisco experienced this last year when Amazon.com Inc. (NASDAQ:AMZN)-owned Whole Foods Market Inc. shut down its flagship store in the city after being open for just over a year, citing employee safety concerns. Nearly 570 emergency calls were reported from...

    NBC News, or, as Greg Gutfeld aptly calls the mainstream media outlet, “Nothing But Crap,” recently outdid even itself in promulgating misleading information. A weekend report strongly implied that Florida is a veritable hellhole from which residents are fleeing at a remarkable rate. The outlet claimed that “a perfect storm of soaring insurance costs, a hostile political environment, worsening traffic, and extreme weather” had caused people to abandon the Sunshine State in droves.And they based that claim on interviews with “more than a dozen recent transplants and longtime residents who left the state in the past two years.” More than...
