On the whole I think low rates are in general a good thing if they’re coupled with spending reductions and other reforms in the tax code. Trumps cuts did not do that. As such the huge hole in the budget these cuts are causing will likely have more negative effects than the positive effects that rate cuts will have.…

Again, if you read my comment. The spike of growth which took place over five years was likely due to the investment caused by the rate cut, hiking rates as AOC is proposing would likely have the opposite effect. Like France... seven years ago... which I both linked to and wrote in the original comment.  Furthermore,…

More fucking horseshit.

Phillips did not “enter the space between them” - he explicitly said on CBS News that he walked into the high school group to prevent them from harassing the poor innocent black protesters. The fact that those black protesters were using vile, homophobic, racist language is downplayed by you,…

Fix “diffuse the situation” while you’re at it. 

There were no winners in that video, but the conscious attempts by people on the left to crucify these kids without making proper reference to everything that led up to it, show their biases, not the kids.

Trump sucks, but shoehorning him into everything is exhausting. You don’t need to give him this attention. I just want five minutes where I don’t have to think about him. Just give me a coffee break. And then it’s back to fighting him on everything.

I find the idea that a Jalopnik commentor being a good parent highly suspect

The TSA could be dissolved tomorrow, private security hired by each airport and the skies would be safer than they are today. They’re many times more disposable than air traffic controllers.

NICE! Love that look. I just picked up a 1/24 scale model of the WRC ‘99. Been trying my hand at a hobby and can’t wait to build this thing.

Lake Michigan is actually one big pothole.

Yeesh. That makes me nervous. Mind you, I fly the relatively heavy Blackhawk, and our rotor extends waaaay out past the nose. Something like 11ft, and the blades can flex down off the nose fairly far - limiting the angle of the hill we can do a pinnacle to. That, and you really have to watch the torque applied - too…

Shaun King is being lit up on Twitter for placing the blame on the wrong suspect. 

And, to some extent, you have to grant them the win. The media did run with a race-bait story that turned out to be nothing of the sort. This site is similarly quick to gloat whenever a voter fraud story making the Fox circuit falls apart, and can you imagine the insanity that would be going down here had the family…

Is Shaun King still going to pay 100k to the person who gave him the tip?

You are aware African Americans commit the most hate crimes per capita by about double, right?

The guy driving the shooter’s car said his friend shot up Jasmine’s car because he thought it was someone else. I’m not sure what you're finding ambiguous about this. 

Toyota is like your uncle who you loved to have babysit you and your siblings as a kid because he would bust out some new toy he bought (MR2, AE86, A70, Celica GT-Four) and entertain for hours, complete with watching those action movies that your parents thought were too violent for young kids if you promised to keep…

You live in a country where the top 25% of filers provide 86% of federal income tax revenue. You live in a country where the top 50% of filers provide 97% of federal income tax revenue. You already live in a country where half the population pays literally or virtually nothing as far as federal income taxes are…

Cayenne’t believe I didn’t think of that one

I prefer to work my taxes backwards, figuring approximate credits and payments, then looking at ways to decrease my AGI or increase deductions to maximize my refund.
