Filing jointly give the couple a higher tax rate.  Why would they have wanted to pay more?

Ding ding ding ding!  We have a winner.

The married filing jointly rates were implemented as a social engineering move to benefit the family with one working spouse.

If you don’t have a family and both spouses work, you are likely disadvantaged. Of course, YMMV depending on the facts. 

This is what fascism and tyranny looks like.

And Far Lefties like Steingar keep saying he Media isn't BIASED.  All the networks and cable channels except Fox and OAN are certainly left wing biased.  They were all deeply saddened and visibly so on election night when it was clear Trump would.  I loved watching them cry, whine, and look utterly despondent.

One of the greatest election nights of my life.

Let’s repeat it 2020.

The average has been about 65%.

He is arrogant and not only thinks that he is the smartest person in the room, he believes that he is the only one who should be thinking. He doesn’t ask people for advice about topics that he doesn’t live every day.

Take the recent Syria announcement as an example. The military chiefs were shocked by the announcement. That means they had no idea it was coming, but who is a bigger expert at military matters than the people who run the military day in and day out?  Well, apparently, the president.

As a a result, I think he doesn’t understand the consequences of his decisions. He isn’t making optimal choices for the people of the United States. Ergo, he is not a good president.

You really have zero idea of his level of consultation with others. It has become clear that you are just parroting the anti-Trump screeds by CNN et. al. 

Are the military “chiefs” allowed to hit the airwaves with their disappointment of not being consulted?  Did the Joint Chiefs hold a walkout or something?  No.  But perhaps you’re upset that John Brennan and the former light colonels who are feeding at the MSM trough weren’t consulted about something that is none of their business any more.

Arrogant?  Show me a president that wasn’t. I’ll grant you Jimmy Carter.  It takes a very arrogant man to run or woman for President. It takes balls-out arrogance to be a lifetime politician believing you are truly “the ruling class.”  I’ll admit Trump has failed at this career politician thing.

Check out Rush’s list above. Your objections are noted. Stupid and invalid, but noted.

And this is exactly what I mean... other than (perhaps) muchow.dk which I've never heard of, they're all highly partisan sites that push propaganda rather than facts. Hardly what I would call reliable.

Again... not that it matters. I have no doubt that some leftist groups are paying for some of her activities, most 16 year old girls wouldn't have access to all that money. Her parents could possibly be sponsoring some of it, but likely not all. So maybe Soros is involved, maybe he isn't.

Once again... so what? No proof she is delivering any message but her own.

Can you name a real, unbiased investigative journalist?  I don’t think they exist anymore, unless you are looking for dirt on a political opponent weeks before an election, in which case they are all investigators, but certainly not unbiased.

My point is if the MSM chooses not to investigate something, that doesn’t mean that “something” doesn’t exist. Media bias is more hideous with the media deciding what the WON’T cover than in how they cover known events.

So if things may exist but you aren’t hearing it from ABCCBSNBCCNNMSNBC, should you just presume it’s a non issue? 

No. You look for alternative sites. Your presumption that these lesser known sites are just propaganda pushing sites and are not “reliable” demonstrates your own bias. I’m not saying some aren’t that, on both sides of the spectrum.  But it is intellectually dishonest to lump them all into that category.

It appears your criteria for what is “reliable” depends upon confirmation by the MSM. Sorry, but that will rarely happen, because they don’t want it to happen.

Those of us that have to search alternative sites for information aren’t lemmings willing to latch on to the latest conspiracy theory. We may shockingly be as smart as you when it comes to politics and world affairs. Shocking, I know. It would be good for you to not be so quick to discount the alternative media.  Sometimes that’s all we have.

Could someone go over there on that thread and advertise Pilot Spin?

Include the fact we don’t moderate and everyone is free to join and participate.

Will do!  I just registered. Gosh, I hope I’m accepted.

I wonder when it is ok to tell someone that they are wrong.

What about when someone is completely wrong?

Or when someone is wrong and should know better?

Shut up. You’re wrong. RACIST!!!!
