No, the top tax rate is 37%.
With lottery prizes, the full amount is usually only available as annuity payments over 20-30 years. If you pick a lump sum, it’s typically only 40% of the full amount.
This winner chose the lump sum payment, so his lottery prize was about $600,000,000.
I’ve already addressed that point.
With such a high majority it would have just been overturned immediately, so no, he couldn’t have vetoed the bill. An attempt to do so wouldn’t have helped at all and might have undermined future cooperation.
No, he doesn’t. This is Trump just hurling executive orders at things he doesn’t like.
I clarified further. In the rail strike case, it was a senate bill, not an executive action. And the bill passed 80-15. Biden signed the bill, but that isn’t the same thing at all.
That’s incorrect, and these situations aren’t close to comparable.
When Biden was in power, eight out of twelve unions had already ratified the contract, and the senate passed a bill to force the final four to accept it. It passed 80-15, so Biden couldn’t have vetoed it if he wanted to.
Trump is attempting to ban unions altogether, by executive order.
I agree with what you’re saying and also it feels worth pointing out how pervasive the rhetoric of profitability has become.
We don’t talk about the military running at a loss, or the department of transport, or any other part of the government. We talk about their cost, because that’s really what it is. Services don’t “lose” money, they cost money.
They’re describing LORAN.
What workplace is this that has dorms?
Fortunate that the constitution explicitly makes protesting legal, right guys?…
It is.
And now I’ve ditched Proton. Andy Yen’s comments made me skeptical, but I was still confident that their mission was intact. This move, to a social media platform with a demonstrated willingness to censor non-corporatist views, confirms my fears that they are giving up their principles.
I think this is right on the money.
Bitwarden integrates directly with several email alias providers: https://bitwarden.com/blog/add-privacy-and-security-using-email-aliases-with-bitwarden/
What do you mean by that?
True, but that’s defense by concealment. If they notice the domain, they can block it without harming their business. My argument is that iCloud is too large for them to block.
Jfc. Just call it the SA at this point.
There are other options for email aliases. iCloud has a pretty robust system, and its ubiquity makes it less likely to be filtered.
Other way round. Genocide is a type of ethnic cleansing.
Couldn’t agree more. And they want that control because of greed.
