Well, having $5k in your pocket certainly tingles the dopamine receptors, but in actuality the greater benefit would be to use it in the direction of incurring less interest on our national debt, which we have to pay through our taxes anyways
IM GONNA BUY ME A XBOX, PAY MY RENT, AND SPEND THE REST ON SICK KICKS! HAIL TRUMP

Or I guess I could just put it in my IRA like a stupid idiot fucker.

Or even worse, the feds could use it to improve infrastructure or something gay like that. Ehack.
 
You think the Coen brothers got that line from Daddy Bush?

Yes. The Big Lebowski literally opens with news footage from the era in order to set the period of the film. So The Dude is just repeating some stuff he saw on television.

You will now rewatch The Big Lebowski and the entirety of the Coen brothers filmography.
 
So does Congress do anything important if they can spend this much time fucking around with one nomination?
if you actually look into how much time congress wastes on shit like this you would be sickened. remember that it's a salaried position, so they benefit from making issues take as long as possible to resolve, so that it's still a prerogative of their voters to keep them in so they can vote for the things that their party wants.

i don't want my tax money going to california's streets. fuck them. if trump can show me a plan for my tax dollars that's better than me getting 5k to put in savings, i'd be more than happy to fund it.

Should have clarified, the breakdown proposed by Trump + Elon was 25% goes to the people 25% goes directly to the debt. They did not specify where the rest of the 50% goes.

Dude, these are the people who exempted themselves from Obamacare because noblesse oblige dictates that they must receive free healthcare in clinics built into the capital to maintain the proper distance from us unwashed masses

This is their calendar

I'm very curious how bird flu is going to be handled moving forward. If the mass culling continues, egg prices will not drop so I don't see how anything will improve if the same policies that got us here are kept.
Currently, I believe farmers are forced to test for bird flu and cull their entire flock even if only a few test positive.
I'm sure there are absolutely no downsides to that approach whatsoever.

Abrams, who serves as Rewiring America's senior counsel, said at the time that she was "thrilled" to be part of the Power Forward Communities coalition. "This is how we expand access to clean energy—by prioritizing housing, equity and resilience," she wrote in an X post.
"This is how we accomplish the goal, by doing a laundry list of things that have no apparent cause and effect pathway towards achieving the goal." That they can't at least just stick to, "Windmills, solar panels, and electric cars," is yet another example of how intersectionality fucks up every other goal.

You can actually withdraw from a Roth without penalty at any time.

It's the main way a Roth differentiates itself from a traditional investment/retirement account, you don't need to wait until you're 70 or whatever.

Holy shit, I googled it because I thought

"dude, its 5k what you buying AFTER the mower?"

Nope, will have to take a little out your own pocket just to satisfy the tax man

Maybe I need to ask my gardener for some stock tips, I mean good golly.
Yep. A basic lawn tractor will run you about 3k and anything above that is used car territory. I don’t have a ton of property but I have enough where mowing with a push mower would take about 2.5 hrs. So a decent lawnmower is worth it to me so I don’t spend my entire Saturday pushing. Hell I could stand to lose ten lbs though so maybe I’ll save the cash and start pushing haha
 
I'm not trying to be an asshole here, i'm really not, but the war in ukraine seems like a valid area of discussion about US politics when zelensky and trump are bickering over it. Just this morning for instance, rumors are zelensky shut down truth social in ukraine.
I literally do not care. Any inch I had given on the discussions as an outer sphere of US politics were seized upon niggers who wished to have yet another fucking Russia war thread. Stop talking about the fucking war here, unless Trump either:
a) sends more money over
b) finishes the war
c) backs out from the talks

or if Ukraine does something to affect the United States (tariffs, sanctions, war, etc.)

This is not a hoop through which you can push through more Ukraine war sperging. There's like three separate threads for that, perhaps more.
 
Good thing nobody did. You're wrong.

It's a damn sight better than being poor at the end of your life, lol.
i can sense your tears

You don't understand I simply must talk about the politics of some shithole countries I don't care about having some war somewhere I don't care about over barren frozen soil in the US Politics thread.
Insane behavior, welcome to the finding out timeline bud.
 
I would prefer lowered taxes, but if that's not "fiscally feasible", then fine guess I could take the 5 grand and put it...somewhere else for a rainy day.

This feels like bizarro world. What has Trump done against working families or even labor unions? Nobody on the planet hates unions more than I do, I would have absolutely noticed if he did something to harm them because I’d be celebrating it.

Should have clarified, the breakdown proposed by Trump + Elon was 25% goes to the people 25% goes directly to the debt. They did not specify where the rest of the 50% goes.
I mean, we still have stuff we need to do to improve the country(a wall anyone?) so it makes sense to spend that 50% in beneficial projects

I think it’s an issue of conscience. When you say “you niggerspergs know who you are,” people of conscience think “damn, I said the U word, this must be about me”
