-start-up businesses can deduct $20,000 of start-up expenses
-remove minimum distribution for those with less than $50,000 in your IRA (since you can have as many IRAs as you want, then this seems like a method of entirely avoiding minimum distributions)

This is great stuff!

May I just respectfully say I don't give a f**k about my cost of living if it means risking a rapist supreme court justice?

I personally don't give a **** about my country having a better economy if it means going back to the old days when anybody who wasn't a straight white Christian man with money was treated as a second class citizen.

I don't give a phlyin' phuq about a "better economy" [by design, only for the 1% in any case] if it means an additional fascist vote on the supremes ruining things for the 99% for at least another generation, blocking any progress in this nation until I am long dead and gone, if it means having the most reactionarily right-wing court since dred scott.

Gonna be exciting if Trump has to replace Ruth Bader Ginsberg.

She's 85 years old now.

Same here. It really does feel like he's trying to ruin every bit of progress our country has made in the last 100 years.

the patrician right doesn't want progress because it interferes with their profits and their power to lord it over the rest of us any way they see fit including letting us all die and replacing us with robots. and [to borrow a phrase from Lenin] their useful idiots think they are on the gravy train to Elysium along with their false rich "friends" of convenience, boy what a surprise they are in for.

Tell me about it. I don't know where these people get the idea that an obnoxious greedy ***hole who fires his employees for fun and bankrupts his own companies is going to help them get rich and live on easy street for the rest of their lives.

He's probably going to pull strings so that his own family and friends stay stinking rich after he leaves office but the entire country itself will be completely broke.

Neo-conservatives want Supreme Court majority in order to block Roe v. Wade legal abortion access & don't mind suspicion of rape on the part of their nominee. Or did I miss something?

There’s have to be another case against it to bring it back up. And most likely since it’s already been settled they’d refuse.

Hmm. Conservatives more offended by the accusation than by the act. Not surprising. It's their classical M.O.

Due process and innocent until proven guilty, I assume you’d want such treatment as well.

What I said stands. It’s clear they take more offense to the accusation than to the notion that the act could have taken place. As said, it’s their M.O. Another example, they show more offense at being called racist than they are at racism. They get more offended at being called homophobic than they do homophobia. So on and so forth, it’s their classical M.O - the accusation to them is worse than the possible act.

GEORGETOWN PROFESSOR SAYS WHITE MEN SHOULD BE CASTRATED, FED TO SWINE

A professor at Georgetown University known for making incendiary comments against supporters of President Donald Trump said white men deserve “miserable deaths” for supporting Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh.

C. Christine Fair, an associate professor at Georgetown in the School of Foreign Service, tweeted Saturday, saying white Republican men should die and an added bonus would be if women “castrate their corpses and feed them to swine.”

Her tweet was in response to South Carolina Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham’s comments in front of the Senate Judiciary Committee. He defended Kavanaugh against an “unethical sham” and slammed Democrats for not releasing sexual assault allegations against the judge for weeks after they first received them.

In the tweet Fair called Kavanaugh a “serial rapist,” although he has never been convicted or even accused of rape. The FBI is currently investigating the accusations of sexual misconduct against Kavanaugh and plans to have its investigation finished by Friday.

(((Christine Fair))) ✔ @CChristineFair
Look at thus chorus of entitled white men justifying a serial rapist's arrogated entitlement.
All of them deserve miserable deaths while feminists laugh as they take their last gasps. Bonus: we castrate their corpses and feed them to swine? Yes.

Stop whining about free speech PLEASE. Republicans say tasteless s**t all the time & I'm not here rubbing that in your faces.

So you don't care if your Supreme Court favorite is a raging alcoholic?

Nope. In fact that seems to be exactly why people love him. Very strange isn't it?

I am not in America so talking from afar, but it all seems too fiercely partisan to really be about someone's history.

If he represents your team then you want him approved / voted in / elected / appointed etc and that is pretty much it. If he is on the opposite team to you then you want to stop him no matter what because it is a loss for your team.

The actual real stories behind any of these things are completely irrelevant, it's team blue Vs team red and people want a win for their team no matter how vulgar the circumstances.

Like I said before I even know some Republicans who don't even like him.
