“When I leave office in 6 years”
We all know that if he is elected to another 4 years, he is going to try to work around that limitation, right?

FYI, BarackaObama is a known troll. The whataboutism is intentional.

I am glad to hear there are lots of opening. You are completely correct that training and education will need to adjust.

In the last three to four years, I have started to worry about this so much for my twin sons. They will graduate high school next year, and I worry about their lifestyle in the coming years as jobs become more scarce due to automation, the climate becomes more volatile, and as population grows and the fights over…

Not a criticism of you personally, but it seems that a lot of my conservative friends who don’t like Trump now claim to be Libertarian so they can take potshots at both sides.

9 months salary vs 12 month salaray depends upon the district. Most of the ones around me spread the salary out over 12 months, including the 3 districts I have worked for (2 in Missouri, 1 in Illinois).

Does anyone know if these work through a case like an Otterbox?

Ok. I apologize for jumping the gun there.

I didn’t keep the one from undgrad, hence why I had to have it again in 1999 for grad school. I did keep the one from 1999 grad school, but admittedly, when I went back to school in 2010 (different school for a different degree), it was just a print out from the student health center, and I could see where it might…

Let’s not pretend to accept something that isn’t true. You can prove anything logically if you accept false premises.

Are there risks due to vaccines? Yes—allergic reactions or other issues if you are immuno-compromised. I’ve yet to see/hear/read about any study showing a link to autism that wasn’t put forth by someone…

For sure. I teach high school, however, and I am sure I have been exposed to myriads of viral goodies from those wonderful kids. I will probably go out due to some weird infection they give me.
(All cynicism aside—I love teaching.)

Like 95% sure. I get the TDAP regularly every 10 years (just a month ago, in fact). I am older (born 1973), and I don’t know if 2 doses were recommended back then. I had one for sure as a kid, but then my undergrad in 1991 had me get another, and then both grad schools in 1999/2010 had me do it again.

It may be an age…

I have gone back to college a few times now, and they always just had me get the MMR again. I think the 3rd time (around 2010), I even had proof of the one from 1999, but they told me it was too old, and I should get it again.. So I am up to at least 4 doses now, but it might be 5.

I do still cough up $20 for a Blu-Ray every now and then, but I am an old...

Agreed. And perhaps there are some taxes in the calculator other than Federal taxes, but I didn’t see it. However, I did read it over very quickly, so I might have missed something.

13% is our effective Federal tax rate, not the rate the calculator gave me (which tells me the average rate is 20% for people in my tax bracket and above).

So my wife and I are in the top 10% (about $160,000 family AGI).
While the top 10% pays about 71% of all taxes, I think it is important to remember that the taxes I pay at my level really don’t affect my family as much as those at lower levels.

At our income level, we don’t live paycheck to paycheck, we can budget and…

That’s interesting...I have a cast iron wok and I love cooking in it. Now I want to know what I am missing with a regular wok.

Love that last line!
(The math teacher in me is screaming that you need parentheses around the i*pi.)

LOL. Just a HS math teacher, but I do pay attention to lots of numbers...
