My kids have been playing Ocarina of Time nonstop this week. It really actually looks and plays excellent. The controls are wonky, but they pooled their money and are buying the N64 controller.

Less spending would require less taxation. But liberals love spending other people’s money

That’s not what I said, but ok.

Are you wanting to punish those with a high net worth?

It went to military subcontractors. And then those military subcontractors make donations to (mostly) Republican lawmakers, so that they can get yet more money from the Federal Government.

DON’T YOU GET THAT SONG IN MY HEAD!

I think you’re making a distinction without a difference.

I mean...I’m still on the surface of the sun.

My city decided my house is worth more than it was last year, so I had to pay more in property taxes.

I wasn’t suggesting that was something that in the real world could be done. I was just comparing the wealth number to the budget number.

You weren’t taxed on the increase in value of your property.

What premise?

Income tax refunds are a thing.

It’s not theoretical value. It is his current actual value.

So you were making a pedantic point rather than one that was apropos the actual legislative reality? What was the point of that?

For fucks sake, man. It’s just simple math.

Pretending that this is a problem of the filibuster is wishful thinking.

Irrelevant to the point I was making.

You must not be very familiar with how the Federal legislature works.
