0.37g/pound is on the very very low end though, far from optimal on a weight loss diet. See this article: https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/high-protein-diet-plan#... > The Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA

Right but even on the low end of recommended daily protein intake, 22g would probably still be a small fraction.

A single protein shake typically provides around 22g of protein, which is a small portion of the recommended daily intake for maintaining muscle, generally close to 1g of protein per pound of body weight. As an example, I'm currently o

What did the US do to Europe this week? Are you referring to Trump withdrawing support for Ukraine?

It seemed like you intended to present your comment as a tautology (e.g. "I feel there's a 100% chance of his or your comment aging poorly"), but I'll give you the benefit of the doubt!

I feel there's a high probability your comment doesn't mean what you think it does (unless you truly believe both outcomes are as likely).

I predict this comment will age very, very poorly. Bookmarked.

If it's simple, why don't most people know how to do it?

You are the one who said tax that filing was "difficult and unapproachable" for the public. What did you mean by that?
733.
by olalonde 2y ago
No and hence, it wouldn't be considered "simplifying the tax code".

Simplifying the tax code is about tax prep. The simpler the tax code, the simpler to file. Though what you say about him wanting to lower taxes is possibly true, none of those posts are about that.

Simplifying the tax code makes it easier to file.

Not relevant because you exclude Elon Musk from the "they" who "have interest in keeping tax filing difficult and unapproachable"? Because he is clearly not one of them: "Simplifying the tax code will increase produ

If it looks like a duck, swims like a duck, and quacks like a duck, then it probably is a duck.

Not familiar with "filibuster". Does it mean that Democrats could effectively prevent a potential "DOGE is legal" bill from passing by endlessly debating it?
743.
by olalonde 2y ago
Stupid question but don't the Republicans control all branches of government? Couldn't they just declare whatever DOGE is doing legal (if it's indeed illegal)?

Not American here. Isn't Congress controlled by Republicans? If I understand correctly, it would take 5+ Republicans voting against the party line for a Republican bill to fail to pass? Is this common?

Hard to argue with that but it's a lazy article too - just a collection of opinions with no reasoning or supporting arguments.
