The "n word" was how a sizable portion of my unit referred to each other. Even over comms. Even by our SNCOs. And not a soft a at the end. The hard er. Black guys got hazed out, unless they really, really wanted it. My teammate in sniper school was brown. There was a black captain in Arabic language course, but he was line company. But that was about it after I left line companies.
No posts about Chris Cuomo responding “Mine too” when Kamala Harris identified her pronouns as “she, her, hers” at the LGBTQ town hall? Come on, guys. Low hanging fruit!
For anyone interested in the Dem presidential candidates tax plans, this guy is going through and explaining each one individually. He's also a good writer and entertaining - https://www.forbes.com/sites/anthonynitti/#57b81ee17a36
Is this correct? I'll confess to not having stayed up into the wee hours of the night to watch these and only having caught snippets here and there. I'd have thought it would have come up at some point. https://reason.com/2019/10/15/the-d...0-questions-but-none-about-the-national-debt/
Only caught a little bit of it but from what I saw Warren is the clear front-runner right now. She stuck to her ideas and defended herself well. Tulsi is a major long shot but I think she is the type of candidate that gets some voters to cross party lines. Mayor Pete also looked sharp from what I saw.
I recall it coming up in the first debate, in the context of it exploding under Trump while many corporations pay nothing
Corporations never pay anything. Workers, customers, or investors pay it. It's just a hidden tax on every day people that gets sold as a tax on business.
it isn't hidden, and it definitely goes towards the investors' end, and there is no reason why they shouldn't pay in to the system that allows their enterprise to thrive.
I'm an investor. I'm already taxed on my wages that i contribute to my IRA. My investing into my 401k is pretax, but will be taxed as income as I pull from it for retirement. We don't have a revenue issue. We have a spending problem with people trying to live at the expense of others. It is a hidden cost that the public thinks the company pays. That's not true at all.
And when they do they focus on the little crap like foreign aid, NPR, Endowment for the Arts, etc. Until we get serious about tackling Medicare, Social Security and the Military budgets, nothing will get done. And NO ONE is touching the Holy Trinity while on the campaign trail.
Providing a service or good to sell is trying to live at the expense of others? I do believe as a society we have screwed up values and over consume. That's not businesses fault though
yes. what does providing something "at cost" mean? what is a profit "margin?" Note, I am not saying this is wrong, but you unintentionally are implying it is. we all live at the expense of others. none of us live in vacuum.
