Anything is possible. I often have learned that the markets (stock and bond sniff that out long in advance). The stock market kept going up. If there is such a thing as reincarnation (and I hope there is not), James Carville hopes to come back as the bond market.I do understand that those numbers are revised often, both up and down. The 800k revision was quite a bit larger than normal, by a large factor.
Maybe it comes to nothing, but there is speculation (fwiw) that the numbers will be found to be "cooked" a little.
No, because I am already reaping the tax savings from his first administration, which are due to expire unless Congress votes this year to keep them. I can’t wait until Tuberville’s bill to eliminate tax on Social Security benefits becomes law. I pity the Democrats who vote “NO” to eliminating tax on SS benefits. Their political future will be over if they do.
My rate only changed from 33% to 32% and I itemize. So, it was nice but not really anything to write home about for my family.
It will be interesting to see if cutting SS taxes passes. There are numerous bills that have been proposed. The problem is off-setting the revenue loss with not increasing the deficit.
I don't think Tuberville's will be the one that passes.
One of the Democrat proposals includes increasing the wage limit to over $250,000, which means that high earners (and I would be in this group) would pay the 6.2% payroll tax on nearly $100,000 more of our wages than we currently do. (Current wage base is $168,600)
I actually think this makes sense- no reason the limit should be that low.
It seems unlikely to pass as currently proposed though because it's a Democrat bill.
Trump ran up our debt greatly. And I'm quoting Rupert Murdoch's outfit regarding the labor market.
Of course, it's just liberals calling people Nazis.
It's not actual Nazis doing Nazi things.
They better be locked away forever. Nobody’s ABOVE THE LAW. Remember that chant. Well we about to find outThis is so true.
They are going to need at least 8 years to recover, if not more.
They also need a complete policy overhead and alot of new talent.
There's no way any Democrat in DC with their face plastered on this disaster is going to advance their career at this point.
The best they can hope for is to hold serve in their positions and even that's dicey.
It’s a strange “gotcha” about the SS taxes. Republicans were the ones who implemented taxing SS.
Democrats would gladly support eliminating that tax and offsetting it to higher income earners. Republicans obviously won’t want to do that. So the only solution would be to just increase the national debt.
I am ok with eliminating the SS tax- and doing just that.
Democrats have long supported raising the taxes on the highest earners (most bills target $400,000) to eliminate SS taxes for those making under that amount.
i'd like all of the taxes eliminated but it needs to be paid for somehow.
This gets even better.

When you hire people with little experience, do no background check on them, and then give them access to personal, private, and sensitive information, you are going to run into major problems.
It's so unnecessary and it's so easy to conduct proper checks on people before giving them such access.
There isn't one persoin on this thread that would hire someone and give them access to personal info without doing a decent background checkc on them.
But in this case, because of political reasons, they don't care if they have fundamental checks on them or not.

It’s honestly wild how people like @Lurker123 have stuck their head in the sand to ignore the red flags and align with the mentally unstable like @Ward Jr
reduced car tariffs — a decision taken by the European Commission as the bloc’s representative on trade policy — would also apply to China and other countries under WTO rules.
Brussels could suspend intellectual property rights for American tech companies, for example allowing free use of software, and apply duties to streaming services and other digital platforms.
European governments had noted how the fast retaliation threat by Canada and Mexico to the 25 per cent tariffs levied on them had prompted Trump to suspend the tariffs for 30 days.

Racist maxine watters and her group of thugs trying to break in a secured building, harassing a poor underpaid blue collar security guard just doing his job. The entire hamas clan is with her but he’s not budging. Hopefully he’ll get the presidential Medal of Honor for holding the line against the terrorists.
Trying to break into a building is a crime.
Standing outside a building demanding to be let in and verbally arguing - isn't a crime unless the arguing becomes abusive to someone, or a law officer.
I don't know about this situation (I will go read about it later).
If they tried to break into secured building, they should be arrested. If they disobeyed a lawful order, they should be arrested. In both cases, they should be prosecuted and pay whatever penalty the court levies.
Wow. Our next FBI director took $25,000 from the Russians to appear in an anti-FBI documentary used for Russian propaganda.
Oh top of the Russia Links he also took money from the Chinese
@Lurker123 with all the faux outrage, how do you stomach something like this?
