What we really need is money out of politics and for AIPAC to register as the foreign lobby that it is.


The plan pushed by Cruz and Scott has been sought by conservatives for many years. Under current law, an investor who bought $100 worth of stock in 1990 and sold it today for $300 would currently owe capital gains taxes on the full $200 in profit. But the $100 investment in 1990 would be worth roughly $230 in today’s dollars after accounting for inflation. Under the Cruz-Scott proposal, the investor would only owe taxes on that $70, rather than the full $200. That is why the proposal is known as “indexing capital gains for inflation.”

A cop is a cop after all, and we all know what all cops are.


The broken dream of corporate executives to exploit China 😢


He hasn’t realized he’s just a tool yet?


The market will shrug it off like it did with the tariffs (which were also supposed to tank everything) because line must go up no matter what. Maybe if the market regained some semblance of rationality it would recognize how bad things are, but that’s not where we’re at, so it’s pointless looking at the market as some sort of measurement of anything to do with reality.


ITT: Morons supporting a genocidal ethnostate to own the tankies.
Generalizations are fun!
It goes to India who then sells it to the EU.
