The effective federal corporate income tax rate: 1950: 50% 1990: 25% 2020: 13% Stop asking "but how we will pay for it?" Restore the corporate tax rate. That is how we will pay for it.

I want the Democratic Party to STOP offering up its infrastructure, funding apparatus, and primaries to people who aren't and never have been actual Democrats. Imagine if in 2016 the national Democratic Party had told Bernie “No, you can’t run for the nomination on our platform. Get your own."

Some thoughts about the history of Earth and life on it: Earth - the entire planet, and everything on it - is basically a giant creator and consumer of energy. A living battery! Earth does a complete remodel after every mass extinction. New life, new climate, new geography. "New planet, who dis?"

The most hilarious part of this to me is, if you know the area, it's a bunch of converted munitions bunkers built in the '40s and '50s, outside of Igloo, which at one time was the lowest population town in SD. These people are in the middle of nowhere.

The NYT times reports T* saying he "exceeded" his objectives in Iran, and asks what they were. Easy: He and his friends cleaned up on insider trading. His 18-yo son, Barron, made $170 MILLION trading on oil futures just before the "ceasefire" was announced. He made $$. Lots of $$. That's it.
