Trump 47


Not sure where to put this so I'm dumping it here. The Big Beautiful Bill is looking at taxing money transfers to foreign people (article talks impact related to sending money back to families when someone lives and works in the US).

I don't personally have a huge opinion on it.
This seems like a good idea to me I'm kind of surprised this wasn't already a thing.....every aspect of our lives are taxed......we should be taxing money leaving the economy higher than the money staying here. This is calling for 5% I wish it was at least double. I'm for work visas and non citizens workers....and them having a clear path to citizenship....but taxing money before it leaves to never come back seems smart to me. I wish it was taken a step further.....I wish employers had to pay additional payroll taxes to hire non-citizens. If the employee adds the value of the tax then they will be chosen just like any other job. If not then it makes it more advantageous to hire citizens at better wages and also gives an enforcement mechanism to keep companies who employ and work non citizens at low wages/bad conditions. I worked for a company that was pretty widely known for hiring foreign students at much lower rates than citizens right out of school.....they gave them all the crap jobs and worked them like dogs.....if you want to call it to the level of exploitive I wouldn't argue.....put increased tax on that level the field for US young adults while incentivizing employers with such hiring practices to sponsor employees for citizenship. If you can get your next batch of risk analyst from abroad for cheaper ok but that is going to be taxed at a level that it's worth your time to help them get their citizenship....

Google AI put the number sent out at 81B in 22.....we ought to be recouping at least 10% of that.
 
Nope. All charges were dropped.

She was still driving without a valid driver's license.
Straight to the gulag for that charge.
I didn't say that. But if you don't think uninsured illegals is a problem, then I don't know what to tell you.

Uninsured illegals are no more of a problem (and probably less of one) than uninsured legals.

Same is true of unlicensed illegals vs. unlicensed legals.

It's a lot more difficult to get damages reimbursed from an unlicensed illegal. I've been through it. Authorities would do nothing.

But it damn sure raised my insurance premium.

I wouldn't agree it's "a lot more difficult" to get damages reimbursed from an unlicensed/uninsured illegal as it is an unlicensed/uninsured legal.

Have you been through trying to get damages reimbursed from an unlicensed/uninsured legal too as a basis for comparison?

They are both effectively judgment proof. They both damn sure raise your insurance premiums.

It's the unlicensed/uninsured status of both drivers that is the problem. Their immigration/citizenship status has no bearing on getting damages reimbursed.

Matter of fact, I have. But the uninsured legal had a legimate job and all it took was threat of civil action to be reimbursed.

Fair enough.

I'd say you were lucky your damages were low enough that the uninsured legal was able to and willing to reimburse you out of his own pocket.

I'd also say that the overwhelming majority of uninsured/unlicensed legals/citizens out there don't and won't do what yours did.

I've had experience here. My wife has had exactly 4 wrecks in our 32 years of marriage. 3 not her fault and 1 was.

My wife was T-Boned by a Lady on the main road in our town after the lady ran a stop light. Completely the other ladies fault. This lady did not speak English , was not insured, didn't have a drivers license. I don't know if she was illegal or not but highly suspected. She was cited by the police for the accident and by the time I got there the cop was explaining to here through a translator the only reason he wasn't arresting her was due to the fact she had 2 kids under the age of 7 with her and it was 105 Degrees out and he wasn't going to put them on the street since they had no one who could pick them up. We paid the deductible out of our own pocket and got her car fixed and chalked it up to Normal every day getting screwed over non insured motorist. Almost 2 years later we randomly got a check from our insurance company for the full amount we paid out of pocket for our deductible. The Insurance company said the family of the lady who had caused the accident had reached out to them to make it right by us and had paid our insurance back in full for the amount we had paid out of pocket and asked them to ensure we got our money back.
 
Trump: "I asked one of the companies, I said I want a lot of drones, in the case of Iran they make a good drone, for 35k-40k. I said to this company I wanna see it, they came in with a drone that cost $41 million, I'm talking about something that costs 35k-40k, you hide behind a tree, the drone circles you with fire, the tree comes down also, these trees come down like they're being sawed by a timber man, like you know who, Sean Duffy."

 
So now they are saying it was a mistake that air traffic controllers were offered a buyout to leave the federal govt job!!?!!

Sean Duffy blames government email systems for the fact air traffic controllers received "fork in the road" emails offering resignations
