On a different note, Alaska is a couple of weeks away from swearing in a new Governor. Bill Walker is actually the first Governor of Alaska to be born in Alaska.

I think it's sad that it took that long.

Well, Alaska became a state in 1959 and a majority of the population from 1950 to about the 1980s were either military or oil workers who came up here. Even both of my parents were born outside of Alaska. Walker, for his generation, is actually a bit of an anamoly.

Where we're headed? Courtesy of author David Weber
It had sacrificed itself upon the altar of equality. Not the equality of opportunity, but of outcomes. It had looked upon its own wealth and the inevitable inequities of any human society and decided to rectify them, and somehow the lunatics had taken over the asylum. They'd transformed the Republic into the People's Republic— a vast, crazed machine that promised everyone more and better of everything, regardless of their own contributions to the system. And, in the process, they'd built a bureaucratic Titan locked into a headlong voyage to self-destruction and capable of swallowing reformers like gnats.

LOL. What an admirable exemplar of this.

In other words:

Come mothers and fathers
Throughout the land
And don't criticize
What you can't understand
Your sons and your daughters
Are beyond your command
Your old road is
Rapidly agin'
Please get out of the new one
If you can't lend your hand
For the times they are a-changin'.

Shared a Delta flight today from SLC to ORD with former MA Gov. Mitt Romney. Seems like a nice guy, friendly and cheerful, I was surprised he doesn't charter his own jet but mingles with the people. So I looked him up in the news, it seems he's way out front in a new poll.

Who cares what she makes? JFC. The Republicans should be applauding her for making the most of what the market will pay.

This isn't news.

I always laugh about that with knucks'. Al Gore was a more notable one. He made big money in the private sector after he left office (selling his TV channel, etc). If he was a Republican he'd be a brilliant businessman. Because he's a Dem, it can't possibly on the up and up! :D
 
Re: Campaign 2016 - Run-HRC? Honest Injun? Gott Mitt Himmel? RyanRubioCruzCrud?

That's because the knucks don't understand that liberals applaud real wealth creation. They can't wrap their heads around the difference between somebody who makes their own money and somebody sitting on a pile inherited from three generations back.

When Bob put me in charge of taxation, the top marginal income tax (90% for > $10M) will be lower than the top marginal inheritance tax (100% for > $100M).

Cut the rate, cut the deductions, cut filing options (single only), give every taxpayer a flat deduction of something around $40K, and you'll eliminate 90% of the code.

You'll also give a massive tax break to the wealthy, but hey, who's counting?
