  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.

I get this is a "silliness" thread, but consider this:

It's wonderful that a certain number of homeowners are going to realize tremendous equity gains on their home's market value.

It may be enough to sustain them in their golden years.

But, with a stroke of a pen, the current "First $500K" of any real estate capital gain on your primary residence will NO LONGER BE exempt from federal taxes.

They'll probably start off demanding...by coincidence..., ten percent for "The Big Man".
Crap, I'd be happy to just be left to live in my house without all the property tax increases for money I might not ever see.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

From now on, I identify as someone not required to wear a mask.
If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.

More like a 'Mind-your-own-damn-business-ite'.

Romans 12:16-21

Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all…do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

     @Gefn when I heard that lyric in a few songs 'She goes commando most of the time', I thought it meant she got mean, not that she was practically naked.    :whistle:

You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.
Rational fear and anger at vicious murderous Islamic terrorists is the same as irrational antisemitism, according to the Leftists.
