I might be getting the math wrong, but my understanding is that the government pulls in roughly $1 trillion in revenue (give or take a few billion) from the payroll tax. Wouldn’t you calculate 0.04 percent of the income that is subject to that tax (which is obviously more than $1 trillion) when determining how much…
At first I thought there was a shooting in Germany, until I realized that it was a hunting accident.
I’ve been posting this as a reply throughout the thread, but I wanted to post it once more so everyone can see. The best, and simplest plan for universal paid parental leave has already been proposed by Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand and Rep. Rosa DeLauro: http://www.vox.com/2015/5/5/85523…. It’s probably a nonstarter in…
Huge expansion? Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand and Rep. Rosa DeLauro have a proposal that would guarantee everyone up to 12 weeks of leave at 66 percent pay, paid for by raising the Social Security tax from 12.4 percent to 12.8 percent (half of which is paid by employees, the other half by employers).

Cool color. Hey Nintendo, call me when you've designed a back plate for the system that doesn't creak and buckle every time I push the buttons. Thanks.
I chuckled a bit when Yuengling came to Massachusetts and continued to buy my ‘Gansett tall boys.
Most of the reason why I use Instapaper is because it does pagination well. Does Pocket do this also? I remember trying it a year or two ago and finding the pagination clunky and unresponsive, but maybe it has improved.
Look at all those rebel flags. Look at all the rebels holding them. I bet you’re just lining up to rebel against the government. You little rebels, you.
Yup. Your child, your choice to doom your child to an untimely demise.
Downeast Original is the only hard cider I know of that, when poured, resembles actual apple cider. I like it best in the fall myself, but I won’t say no any other time of year.
I think they released it because they know a lot of people want to drink the kind of cider that everyone else makes. Hence the name. If you read the can, they’re basically making fun of that type of cider and admitting to selling out to the crowd.
Wasn’t it local governments that moved to shut down Occupy protests?
