Inflation can’t hold 2% but fed gov can overachieve at 4x. No big deal. It’s a revenue problem, not a spending problem, right? The government ran a $134 billion budget deficit in October, the Treasury Department said Wednesday. Federal outlays totaled $380 billion, an 8% increase from ...

It’s perversely incoherent to apply market principles to all social endeavors. America is just chocked full of willing dupes. Right. So let us know how much above the absolute minimum you remit to the treasury every year. And surely you should be the arbiter of which social endeavors are worth purs...

As though I’m compelled to give money to any private enterprise, regardless of their level of waste. Thanks for dropping in to let everyone know that I am the one contributing nonsense.Just streams of nonsense. As though there is no waste in private enterprise.

I wouldn’t go so far as to say that being happy that the federal government takes less from me than they did two years ago is approval of all things Trump. But I won’t try to convince you otherwise. Saying the government is beyond salvaging is treasonous. lol. It’s an opinion. I’m going to do nothin...

I’m just glad everyone was cared for with the tremendous emotional stress of the day yesterday. Probably paid for with my tax dollars.

My experience is going to a competitor or something directly related that 20% is a pretty reasonable starting point. Every year you spend at the same company is a year you have spent de-valuing yourself in the market. It is much cheaper to keep an employee than recruit a new one.

Put me in the “not a fan of over-editing to the point it looks nothing like what you were looking at” category.

The income limit for deductions on IRA contributions is so low that I assume it doesn’t apply to you. Just plow it into after-tax 401k once you hit $19,500. Same result.401k/403b plan contributions are increased from $19,000 to $19,500 for 2020. IRA contributions remain the same. Lame.

It might be time to legalize drugs in this country. The state of drug legalization in this country is absolutely no excuse for burning six-month children to death, but your point is valid. Anything to take power out of the hands of the cartels. Not sure how that's an excuse. What you have is a neig...
