  1. The kids are getting their heads right. They don't use the ignore function.
  2. Y'all have been killing it on all objective measures.
  3. You're a clown. You realize other people can read this exchange right? You have called me a sociopath in your posts because you are basic, but only one of us has ever helped out other posters here tangibly in a moment of need. Be better.
  4. Wholeheartedly agreed.
  5. If you just want a progressive wealth tax that is ok. You don't have to make unfounded claims about how it is going to make home ownership more attainable.
  6. So the answers are "no"?
  7. Has anyone actually modeled this? Is this really one of the primary outcomes expected from a progressive wealth tax?
  8. How does a progressive wealth tax in particular help effect the goal of making home ownership more attainable? I am open to the idea if you can connect the dots. Foreign speculation in domestic housing markets seems to be low hanging fruit. Property taxes another one, but thats local/state and not federal. Maybe trade in a couple aircraft carriers to buy down mortgage rates. I don't know how people can make the current rates work with the current market prices for real estate.
  9. It really doesn't have to be this hard.
  10. Tilt at more windmills guy.
  11. Love subsidizing european and middle eastern social welfare programs with American taxpayer dollars. What a world.
  12. You're cracking man. I was trying to agree with you. You fn weirdos don't know how to take it when I agree with you.
  13. Sorry you are bailing out. I don't think the exchange is hard to track unless you want it to be.
  14. Fiscal policy, petrodollar, aircraft carriers, shit like that.
  15. Smoke more weed turtle.
  16. I think the answer to this question is implicit in my prior response. Why are you trying to make a disagreement where one does not exist? Some of you just have no idea how to coalition build. And you wonder why your "democracy" fails you.
  17. Yes, I know.
  18. I mean, home ownership attainability is basically a hallmark of the American middle class. Which demonstrates exactly how much we have divorced the middle class from the middle income. And certainly distributionally lower income.
  19. Good strawman. Stopping being so fn histrionic in every exchange here.
  20. If you work 40 hours a week in America, home ownership should be attainable. If it is not, that is a problem. Oh god brisket, shut the fuck up.
  21. He's just repeating to you talking points from the Israeli Foreign Ministry twitter account.
  22. Agree completely. We need to make the american dream attainable again.
