Rumor has it that Rupert Murdoch put the hammer down on them, due to upcoming indictments.Well Fox has been very quiet since the microphone murder last week.
Well, demanded her firing. The first lady can't actually fire her.And Melania just fired the deputy national security advisor.
You know, i got to ask... are the taxes on income, or just profit? Because if they're just on profit, none of the money that goes to pay for wages would have been taxed anyway...
What. A. Surprise.
Both are taxed - profit AND income/wages.You know, i got to ask... are the taxes on income, or just profit? Because if they're just on profit, none of the money that goes to pay for wages would have been taxed anyway...
Like, they really need to teach basic econ in grade school... it's not even hard.
And now for an actual surprise!
It makes sense for them to do this long term, but I'm amazed they are capable of thinking that far ahead.And now for an actual surprise!
When Trump loses in 2020 (FOR THE LOVE OF GOD PLEASE!!) they know that any precedent can make them go bye bye.And now for an actual surprise!
Both are taxed - profit AND income/wages.
Oh for fucks sakes... i'm not talking about how taxes work 101.Taxes are levied whenever money is exchanged.
Consumers pay money to companies? Income tax (corporate).
Companies pay money to employees? Income tax (personal).
Employees and/or companies buy goods and services? Sales tax.

Don't get me wrong, I agree, I just am not surprised some are supporting CNN, some for moral reasons and others for self-preservation reasons.One Shep Smith doesn't make up for Hannity, Carlson, Ingraham, Fox and Friends, etc.
Ah, there's the confusion. You asked "are the taxes on income, or just profit?" and not "are the tax cuts."Oh for fucks sakes... i'm not talking about how taxes work 101.
I was asking what exactly did the tax cuts affect.
I know I quoted an article that painted a very unflattering picture of it,Major elements of the changes include reducing tax rates for businesses and individuals; a personal tax simplification by increasing the standard deduction and family tax credits, but eliminating personal exemptions and making it less beneficial to itemize deductions; limiting deductions for state and local income taxes (SALT) and property taxes; further limiting the mortgage interest deduction; reducing the alternative minimum tax for individuals and eliminating it for corporations; reducing the number of estates impacted by the estate tax; and repealing the individual mandate of the Affordable Care Act (ACA).
While quoting a post about teh tax cuts... context, ppl!!!Ah, there's the confusion. You asked "are the taxes on income, or just profit?" and not "are the tax cuts."
I was actually hoping someone would tl;dr it for me, since i'm not really in the mood to go down such a complex rabbit hole as a tax system atm.It looks like it's the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 that we discussed before.

Gosh, I wish this was the Random Poo thread but it's not, it would seem the company that the new Acting AG was promoting such wonderful products as the real Sasquatch doll made with hair genecticLly reproduced from the only know Bigfoot DNA sample, a crypto currency used exclusively for the future time travel market and a toilet designed for well endowed gentlemen.Oh Xmas cookies, the new acting attorney general may be forced to recuse himself from the FBI fraud investigation into himself.
It’s a bit of a challenge to tldr (though the paragraph I quoted does try), since the Act itself was written with intent to obfuscate its contents and its effects. Best I can tell, the major complaints are that it is not progressive enough for individuals (everyone pays less tax, but the richer you are, the bigger that reduction is), no real attempt was made to pay for it (nothing to make up for revenue lost to the cuts), and the fact that the cuts for individuals are set to fade over time and even become an INcrease by 2027, but the cuts for corporations were permanent. Corporations are treated very, very well by the act.I was actually hoping someone would tl;dr it for me, since i'm not really in the mood to go down such a complex rabbit hole as a tax system atm.
We're you watching the Late Show last night?Gosh, I wish this was the Random Poo thread but it's not, it would seem the company that the new Acting AG was promoting such wonderful products as the real Sasquatch doll made with hair genecticLly reproduced from the only know Bigfoot DNA sample, a crypto currency used exclusively for the future time travel market and a toilet designed for well endowed gentlemen.
