The graph ("vs. Headline Rate")[0] follows the same trend lines as the BLS numbers just with a higher percentage. I don't see how the "poverty wage" methodology (which is arbitrary) is helpful here, it doesn't

Oh yes, that's a classic line. They pretend as if we're just debating what the tax rate should be or some other benign talking point.

I upvoted you because I think the current culture is too "blameless" with regards to voters themselves. "But the party just ran a bad candidate!" "Egg prices were too high!!" "Kamala would've been jus

No, I'm saying he has no qualifications and this administration lies constantly. There's already reporting that he lied in this case about Iran saying they had nuclear material. You're making this out to be a clear cut case a

Proton doesn't really protect anything email related unless the recipient is also using protonmail. The article also points out they sought payment data, not "IP and device ID" information.

Well, government spending could go down along with that too. Obviously, that ain't happening with Republicans (see: the OBBB and failed DOGE project) but in theory you could do major reform and craft coherent policy while not triple di

Rich people consume a lot more, so a consumption tax would be ideal if you eased other tax categories like income tax and/or capital gains. It's easy to administer and would boost investment across the economy IMO.

What if there was no alternative that was US-made? Even if there was a US version, you'd still pay more regardless. This goes against one of the main grievances in the 2024 cycle: prices are too high.

I don't necessarily disagree, a federal sales tax / VAT could make sense. But so far all it's been is conflicting objectives for tariffs: eliminating income tax, trade deal negotiations, and bringing jobs back. I don't t

Yes, there's a lot of naivety in the "regulate everything" camps that believe you can simply solve problems, including the ones caused by legislation, with more legislation.

Nope, he's just corrupt and had enough dinners with tech leaders to be convinced to put aside his anti-immigrant stance on this issue. Funny response, though.
