Thanks, and I whole heartedly agree with your parenting philosophy. I wish more parents did too.

Absolutely.

Going to college graduation next week for #2. Done in 3 years, no debt, worked his full time finance job (salary, 401k, benefits, etc) his entire third year. So thankful I’m experiencing this vs the above. And yes, I do think the parenting aspect plays a big part early on, then it’s up to the kid at some point.

Absolutely. Anyone who thinks they aren’t paying enough can certainly refuse the tax breaks they claim (they don’t) or send money in to the treasury willingly (they don’t)

What an awesome question and back and forth. Well done to both!

The Kansas law was extremely poorly written and legislature took out some offsets making it even worse at the time of passage. It was a stupid bill to pass as written and does not reflect success other states have had with low income tax rates.

That kid looks like he is getting what he deserves

From the article…..These Presidents advocates AND GAVE, tax cuts for everyone who pays income tax. A fair and balanced reporting wouldn’t be framing his article that way Tax cuts for the rich is an economic policy that’s been championed by several leading politicians since, including former U.S. Presidents George W. Bush and Donald Trump.

Yes I am. Just read the article you posted for verification of my assessment. Tons of views that say the opposite is the assumption you will trust those sources.

https://www.investopedia.com/contributors/68104/ I would invite you to re-read the article and look at it from the left lense the author writes it from. Carefully look at the words chosen when he refers to data points. One glaring example is his point #5. Saying debt to GDP exploding does not preclude saying tax cuts pay for themselves. Tax cuts and them increasing revenues have no bearing on what government ends up spending during that time and increasing the debt. Just one example of piss poor reporting.

They absolutely did foster an economic growth spurt and have paid for themselves as evidence by the massive increase in government revenues in subsequent years. A stronger economy btw going into Covid….also allowing for a much stronger post Covid recovery (combined with quite a lot of government spending). Tax cuts do have an immediate deficit component to them, they also foster growth in years after which increase treasuries revenue which in turn pays for the tax cuts. It’s not an immediate process like so many talking heads like Krugman on the left conflate it to be.

From the article…. Cannon's office told Newsweek that the two trips are likely listed on the U.S government's federal judge disclosure website. The court clerk stated in an email to Newsweek that "there are two trips listed for Judge Cannon. These are likely the trips you are referring to. You can find them here" with a link to the U.S government's website. The links show that the seminars were funded by the George Mason University Foundation.

Possible change to scholarships for baseball coming. This would be a great thing and should have been done long ago.
