The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

and NY, it's only right that I offer solutions, again.

Solutions, team trump should meet with Newsom, Hochul, and a few other Dems. 4-5 republicans and three billionaires should join the meeting. For two years both parties should support a 15 % max capital gains tax at the federal level, and a 5 % max rate at the state level. A max tax rate of 20 % combined on LT capital gains would incentivize the superrich to realize significant unrealized capital gains and actually pay the tax. Both parties should make it very clear that they will work together to close all the tax loopholes used by the superrich to avoid taxable events. THATS how you incentivize the rich to pay more rather than move to tax friendly states. Can the two parties work together on anything? It's a ten to 1 shot but team trump should try. What a country.
