Kickapoo school district sees 440% higher cost over private school voucher funding, tax increases
Wait, you think that is a more clear headline than this:
Kickapoo school district taxpayers see 440% tax hike over private school funding
Your headline makes it sound like the school district’s costs are 440% higher. Absolute trainwreck.
Playing devil’s advocate, a person could provide false testimony, contrary to earlier truthful testimony, if they feel guilt over causing this person’s execution. In no way saying that is, or is not, the case here.
Regardless, the death penalty is a profound failure. It is more expensive, innocent people can be executed, and studies show that it provides no deterrent to criminals. There is literally no benefit.
If guns are good, and more guns mean more safety, why are they shooting at someone just because they have a gun?
Because I’m being sarcastic. I’m not actually advocating for shitting on poor people, I’m not Republican.
Sure, but if we don’t means test these things, how can we hurt the “right” (poor/minorities) people? /s
I believe they’re confusing the term victim with the word volunteer.
That’s completely unfair, you couldn’t name one two seven…let’s go with seven other examples of that!

I don’t think I’ve read an interview from anyone who has worked with Trump that doesn’t say he’s one of the dumbest people they’ve ever interacted with. He’s absolutely a con man but he’s also stupid.
All you would end up doing is creating a new business for accountants to devalue someone’s holdings. I assume that you are saying that the wealth will be the value of the asset less any loan against the property, because that’s the only way a first-time home buyer would be taxed nearly nothing. Why wouldn’t the wealthy simply take loans against their assets thereby devaluing them for the purposes of a wealth calculation? The same way that they borrow against their stock portfolio.
But if you tax based on wealth, doesn’t that make home ownership less possible? Property taxes aren’t going away, but now a wealth tax is going to hit property owners? Sales tax is extremely regressive. Income tax is one of the few ways to do progressive taxing.
The first three are great, the fourth idea is insane. Why shouldn’t people pay into their government? If you’re poor, like the first $25k, fine let that be tax free, but why not keep the money in the government coffers and provide single payer healthcare, free college tuition, student debt forgiveness, municipal broadband? Our taxes are not high compared to other western nations.
If it makes you feel better, I did the same thing, but it took your comment for me to realize.
Literally from the article you linked.
But under a more likely scenario, Biden would take advantage of rules that allow unlimited transfers to the candidate’s political party. In that case, Biden’s Democratic Party could spend the money supporting the party’s new candidate.
He can also transfer to a Super PAC.
Yes, she’s the only candidate, but the funds can also go to the DNC or a Super PAC if Biden directs them there.

There, I fixed it for you.
Even after 2004, reading this still makes me angry.
It’s sad, because it’s not fair to anyone that that needs to be a concern. But given the risk, I just want Gavin Newsom to replace Biden. I don’t want to take any chances. A milquetoast white guy who is middle of the road. Then president AOC if I had my druthers.
If there are consistent calls for Biden to step down over repeated missteps and glaring concerns, it may not be the people on Capitol Hill that are stubborn.
It doesn’t prove that at all, and frankly it’s not true. They are part of a for-profit corporation. Their decisions are based on making money for shareholders, and not about journalism or informing the public. So if upsetting Trump, and his supporters, would cost them money, then they will withhold the information. Profit Über alles!
