Under those optics, EVERYTHING is double taxation.

I didn’t call it sacrifice. I specifically said there was nothing angelical about it. Nevertheless, companies do benefit from stock liquidity and appreciation. That’s what traders give when they participate in the stock market. And stock owners do carry risks that other kinds of funding sources do not, and thus do…

Doesn’t help that I see no problem with taxing inheritance. What’s so different about it over any other taxable transaction?

Gee, thanks.

What?

You’re making no sense. In both cases you purchase with the expectation that you will get more money later for an asset. Just because the valuation method changes doesn’t make them fundamentally the same concept.

I have no idea where you got that.

When you buy and sell iPhones you’re also generating jobs and making the economy circulate. Actually, you do it more efficiently, since you’re doing it directly. When you do it through stocks, a good part of your money gets stuck in the secondary market, and doesn’t necessarily help the company.

Yes, and?

You might want to read the whole post. I’m arguing for raising the tax rate on capital gains to that of normal income taxes. I specifically say the current climate doesn’t give any valid arguments for keeping it down.

Just so you know, that’s a massively stupid argument.

It might be capable, but you’d have a different crop. Essentially, you’d be “zooming” in on the frame. Which might be very annoying, since you’d have a small field of view.

We’re not in open combat either, genius.

Wait, Spicer is polished?

You pack an impressive amount of nonsense.

Because “credibility” is defined as “the quality of being trusted and believed in”, not as “having a strong military”. So when you make an idiotic, unnecessary lie (like you claim it was), you lose “the quality of being trusted and believed in”. Also known as “credibility”.

Like putting the expiration date on the QR code itself?

And that’s why the city needs reckoning too, as I said.

No, the solution is the same. Culture of customer service. That is, customer-centric thinking.

Bullshit. I bet you the pricing change will be negligible. It’s well under 1% of the ticket price, unless united has shit logistics... And if they do, it’s not the problem of the customer, and it actually means they’re carrying unnecessary expenses.
