But not quite like an estate since you have to have an estate larger than $11.4M before any taxes will be applied to it. That raised limit was also part of the tax bill; you’re just offsetting the cost.

I’m definitely with you in spirit but I really wish we could also work on the “disagree but commit” skill directly. This project was going to have 10B in cost overruns, meanwhile the F-35 project has hundreds of billions sunk into it and th

The federal coal leasing program has been a frequent target for overpricing coal with some estimates at around a billion a year in benefit. There's also things like opening new areas for drilling in areas that are only profitable when

LOL! It really is something to behold, this article is a pretty good rundown in what’s going on (I would think I was making this up as some fringe thing, if I had not watched it first hand) https://www.nytimes.com/2019/

They learn / don't learn that skill from kidfluencers on YouTube. From what I've seen with my daughter that's a super-weaponized form of advertising compared to what I grew up in, anyone who survives Ryan and turns out

i'm not even sure what the answer to this is other than to say -- it's a completely contrived example and there's no way you would answer such a question let alone be asked about it. getting on the stand isn't some gran

2018 was not a great year on the markets (regardless of feel-good business confidence in 2018), farms & manufacturing are getting killed by the tariffs. Your facts & my facts coexist in the real world.

theres a lot of reasons for someone to look at both what and how trump is approaching this, and rationally come away less-than-enthused: 1. Poor execution & personnel at odds with each other leaking play-by-play details has led to a lot

Thinking out loud, but despite politicians going all over market-style structures (i.e., pay-for-performance with teachers, making welfare recipients jump through hoops, etc.) maybe you could flip this table on politicians for beneficial re

charitably there is an angle to this that has some validity -- increases to the top tax rate should probably be paired with wealth recapture through inheritance taxation to ensure that you don't just build a gigantic firewall for exist

holding a million dollars is way different than earning a million dollars in a given year. the number of people who earn 500K/1M in a given calendar year is a much, much smaller subset.

by awinder 7y ago
it's 57% _on the amount made over 500K/1M/whatever_ to boot, so you're really talking about nominal taxation effects until you're like 4x whatever the income limit is on this mythical "new top bracket"

how do you then explain the period from 1925 (post war reductions) to 1940 where the top tax rate was increased to finance government during the great depression?

The success rate on proxy votes is fairly low but not at a rate where it effectively never happens. The actual voting mechanism might offer more of a poor behavior deterrent than anything else (like: votes happen and they do succeed, so ma

This may be a fair sentiment for an educational institution (you're not directly making money from email sending / hopefully admissions marketing doesn't have this problem), but as a candidate I'd be extremely concerned
