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.

While they shout "$15 an hour!" to make themselves appear caring......

While much of America lives paycheck to paycheck, Upper Income White Liberals love their exclusive tax breaks.

Just one example: SALT.

They can deflect and dodge because that's all they can do. BUT more and more of America is getting wise to them. And it's not just happening today....but it's been known for awhile.

washingtonpost.com - Salt tax deduction cap wealthy regressive

"There's a baffling tax gift to the wealthy in the Democrats' social-spending bill"

Look, if you can't afford where you live, consider Oklahoma or Alabama, you'll love it. But if not, stop whining about your SALT deduction.

This is just ONE unfair advantage that upper income White Liberals want for themselves.
