  Tax on Unrealized Capital Gains!

  by Simon in

  so janet yellen, the us treasury secretary, thinks taxing unrealized capital gains would be a way for them to fund their runaway spending.. first, they claimed that the real cost of their nonsense spending was $0, so they were lying then or are lying now ("why not both?!").

  second, they claimed that money printing doesn't affect inflation, so why not just print the money instead?.

  third, the "for billionaires" is to get the feeble minded masses on board, those that live on benefits and vote democrat for more "free money", but the irs monitoring of $600 bank accounts is also apparently to target the ultra-wealthy as well.

  A tax like this would be a Boston Tea Party like event...

  Normal people would think so, however there are too damned many lazy, perpetual poor welfare leeches who will stand with their hands out to ever get a decent citizen revolt off the ground.

  They couldn't do much more damage if they set out specifically to destroy the economy, so you start to wonder - is that the real plan?

  Yes, yes that is the plan, there were just too many idiots who were always chirping about conspiracy theories and wanting mo' free stuffs to ever get anyone to take the left's stated goals seriously until now, when it is too late.

  Yep, when I was still running on the hamster wheel I was told that many times. When I asked what I needed to do different I was told, "Just keep doing what you are doing." I replied that if what I was to just keep doing what I was doing then it was good enough, and if what I was doing was not good enough that I could do something different. So I did do something different. I got FedUp, got off the hamster wheel, quit giving any $$$$$, quit helping anyone other than the ignored older ones, handicapped, and ones who the Pharisees in Jesus day called, an elders today treat as am ha'aretz or uneducated Jews/JW's, who were deemed likely to be negligent in their observance of the commandments due to their ignorance, and those boorish, uncivilized, ignorant.

  Remember when HITTING A WOMAN was just WRONG!

  just a few years ago, any man that slapped a women was considered a piece of shit.

  today people are are paying and cheering to see a man knocking the shit out of a woman.

  what feminists, social warriors, and gender recognition fighters don't realized is that their actions are actually causing the world to revert back to the days when the world treated women as property, second class species, with no rights whatsoever, whose only value was a sex instrument for the male species.

  If women are to receive and maintain equal rights with men then that means they should have equal responsibility for their actions and receive equal punishments as men as well.

  One would think so, but the reality is not so. IMO

  Yeah, Gee-HO'-Vuh is the way I hear it.

  As far as "butchered pronunciation" what would one expect from the mouths of mostly functionally illiterates who conDAMN any higher education and now are pretty well hone "schooled"?

  Alec Baldwin Shot a Woman Dead

  so alec baldwin shot a woman dead on set and seriously injured another man.. what do we put this down as?

  a tragic accident?

  maybe ... except that implies no one was to blame.. the more you find out, the more it seems that this was due to negligence and lack of attention to safety.

  By me? YES! Firearm idiots know no political party, and any moron who carelessly handles a firearm without practicing firearm safety and injures or kills another person is a piece of crap! It just happens Baldwin is a liberal piece of crap!

  However , the majority of anti-firearm nutcases are in fact liberals.

  Growing up around firearms I remember my dad drilling into me that, "There is NO SUCH THING as an 'accidental' shooting death." There is also, "NO SUCH THING as an 'unloaded' gun." And you, "NEVER point a firearm at something and pull the trigger unless you fully intend to kill what you are pointing the gun at." If those three firearms safety rules had been followed someone who is dead now would still be alive.
  

  O course nothing will happen to that liberal elite piece of crap.

  Interestingly, he died of COVID-complications even though he was fully vaxxed. How does that work?

  That works very well given that the "vaccine" does not work (as it was claimed to). Does not prevent COVID, does not prevent the spread of COVID, and does not evidently prevent death from COVID complications. Perhaps it is just what some claim it is, a depopulation tool foisted on unwitting sheep to thin the human gene pool?

  Do you think the Door to Door KNOCKING - field service will EVER resume AGAIN?

  if i was a jw, and covid put and end to the door to door work for two years, and kingdom halls closed, it would get me to re-visit and think about the stupidity of the overlapping generation, and how they extended the deadline for armageddon to 2072.

  (1992 franz death +80 more years).

  if i was 20 years of age, plus another 80 = 100 years of age for the system to end.

  The Organization has used the excuse in court cases that every JW engages in a “personal” ministry that is essentially disconnected from the any centralized directives.

  That is what I have been using for the past several months of not reporting any FS time. I just say, "I engage in my personal ministry," and leave it at that. My personal ministry is being a good neighbor in the community. It hacks off the elders, but I really don't shive a git.
