Friday Flotsam and Jetsam
Miscellaneous thoughts and observations.
Have to think that if you raised the tax rate on people making $5 million or more a year and at the same time eliminated all federal income tax on people making $50,000 or less a year that there may be a net increase or no change in tax revenue. Why not do this? It would be wildly popularā¦ Congrats to the US Navy on meeting their recruiting goal of over 40,000 new recruits. Have to wonder if possibly going to war with Iran gave recruiting an extra push... You know getting justice for the people of East Palestine was always one of JD Vance's main goals. He never made a secret of that... One definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result this time. The corporate media does that whenever there's a shooter. "This time it may be a MAGA supporter" but it always ends up being a left-winger or a Muslim. The corporate media is insane... Call me old fashioned or isolationist but I have no interest in soccer. Maybe every four years I'll get into the World Cup but in general no interest. Stop trying to make soccer happen... The real Make America Great Again... Could we see a popular revolt that ends up with the nation changing their very name back to Persia from Iran? Many in the US already call themselves Persians instead of Iranians to show they're not in favor of the current ruling elite... Because of DOGE the average tax payer is saving over $1,00 per year and Elon Musk lost roughly $61 billion because he chose to help the government at no pay. Yet some are painting him as the bad guy. Take note who is doing that... Woe to any future President that gets rid of this flag. The optics would be awful - as they should be... As an aside Reggie Theus may have been the most famous player in Chicago Bulls history before Michael Jordan came along but now he's mostly forgotten. More people remember Scottie Pippen or Dennis Rodman than Theus... This is one of the best cover songs of all-time...

Bob Love is the famous Bull that I remember growing up.
Raise the tax rate on those making $5+ million and eliminate them for those making less than $50k? NO NO NO! We already have almost 50% of wage earners either paying no tax or getting credits. Once you get to 50%, then people openly vote for raping the Treasury! No Federal income tax on those making less than $50k and a FLAT tax on everyone else. No exemptions or deductions. Then, everyone will vote to cut the budget! Donāt see it happening but itās the right thing to do.
