Good! Gambling should be disincentivised and taxed as such.The entire industry makes their money through addicts that ruin their lives and the lives of their families.(Also the occasional wife beating)
That tax bill will do nothing to dissuade gambling addicts, but it will destroy professional poker.

It's also probably a test to see if they can get rid of deducting losses in general.
 
Maybe more of y’all
sus

The BBB that’s actually passing is like 10% of what was promised. And instead of going “OHMAHGAWD!!! TRUMP MANAGED TO GET 10%!!!” Maybe more of y’all should be pissed at how neutered it was.
The meat and potatoes has always been the increased ICE funding for mass deportations. I would have loved the NFA getting neutered but I was expecting hopeful things like that getting poop touched by faggots. I'm surprised that they decided to ass rape the Green New Deal stuff even harder than originally intended causing Elon to enter the K-hole again.


From the past few weeks I've seen a lot of concern trolling over Medicaid more so since that bitch poop touched it but the increase of ICE funding to turbocharge deportations will help alleviate the problem of illegals on all of our welfare nigger programs . All the BS done to fuck with or attempt to fuck with the BBB is perfect ammo to primary all those faggots come the midterms.
Rick Wilson says vote blue or starve.webp

Does concern trolling even work? To me it's annoying because it's obvious the people doing it are leftists that hate me so they should be cheering on my supposed incoming starvation no? Why so worried for my well being? It only hurts MAGAts.

US labor market adds 147,000 jobs in June while unemployment falls to 4.1%​


The June jobs report showed the US labor market remained more resilient than anticipated in the final month of the second quarter.

The US economy added 147,000 nonfarm payrolls in June, more than the 106,000 expected by economists. The unemployment rate unexpectedly fell to 4.1%. Economists had expected the unemployment rate to move higher to 4.3%.

In May, the US economy added 144,000 jobs while the unemployment held flat at 4.2%. Those figures were revised higher on Friday from a previously reported 139,000 job additions in May.

Average hourly earnings in June rose 0.2% over last month and 3.7% over the prior year. Economists expected wages to rise 0.3% over last month and 3.8% over the prior year. Meanwhile the labor force participation rate fell to 62.3% from 62.4% the month prior.

Government employment rose by 73,000 workers in June, accounting for roughly half of the month's gains.


Following the report, increasing bets on a July interest rate cut from the Federal Reserve reversed. Markets are now pricing in just a 5% chance the central bank lowers rates at its July meeting, down from a 24% chance seen a day prior, per the CME FedWatch Tool. Traders also grew more skeptical of a September move from the Fed, with markets now pricing in a 78% chance the Fed cuts by the end of its September meeting, down from a 94% chance seen a day prior.
 
It is impossible for people on the left to realize how ridiculously bad the current leadership and assorted visible figures in the DNC actually are in the eyes of normies. Crockett is a total fucking retard. Every time she opens her mouth the DNC loses votes. Same goes for Jeffries. He can barely speak and flails around like a car dealer wacky man. That is the future. Pelosi is all but gone, Nadler is barely visible, even Schumer is less and less relevant.

The DNC's entire future is pinned to Corey Booker, Jasmine Crockett, AOC, and Hakeem Jeffries.

Yeah but it remains to be seen if the younger generations coming up under them can see this. I'm optimistic that between their voters being mass deported over the next 3.5 years ,the average man across all races shoring up the right, and the boomer die off, that things can truly be set up for long term success.
 
June employment beat expectations because this is Trump's America bitch:

So you're cool with gutting medicaid to give tax cuts to billionaires? Why? A few months ago you were saying that crashing the economy was good, now you want tax cuts for billionaires?

Or maybe the new data is wrong given that Daddy was busted lying about inflation numbers and gdp in q1. I know you're a gullible simpleton who believes everything daddy tells him like a good little NPC, but try to be less gullible. Or maybe both are correct and ADP's customers did have that and overall the other numbers are correct.

The problem is the employment-population ratio keeps dropping, these increases aren't anywhere near big enough to keep pace with the population. 150k would have been decent 30-40 years ago when the population was 100 million lower than it is today but now it's mediocre at best. Unemployment is a lot worse than 4.1% if you consider the permanent drop in the labor force participation rate post-COVID.

Honestly the best thing we could do is eliminate H1-Bs and other worker visas and put a total halt on legal immigration and a return to a quota system. We don't need more people in this country, a big reason for how dysfunctional the government is is the lack of representation caused by such a large population.

The House should have thousands of representatives if it were to be kept proportionate to population the way the Constitution originally intended.

The DNC itself is an object lesson in why diversity is bad, women should not be in charge, and niggers ruin everything.

If I had my way, all socialized medicine would be gutted and all taxes destroyed, but we sadly don't live in a perfect world.

Why are you so horny for Trump?

Hi Hulk, how's it going? Are you looking to get in slap fights again?

I wanted to see how Thunderdomers were justifying the mess that is the BBB. I remember a year ago they were throwing tantrums over the deficit but when Trump's bill increases it by a lot to give more tax breaks to billionaires they seem cool with it.

If I had my way, all socialized medicine would be gutted and all taxes destroyed, but we sadly don't live in a perfect world.

Why are you so horny for Trump?
How would you get rid of all taxes and you'd rather people just die in the street? You wouldn't care that your own parents wouldn't have healthcare? I know your autism is so bad that it's eliminated all human emotions that you should have, but you should at least care about your parents

Wait a month for the real number to be released. Everything always gets revised down. I mean, this is good, yes. But don't be a retard because everything from Q1 got revised down. Bigly.
 
Good morning, USPG2. It sounds like the House is close to passing the BBB, which will likely get the Senate's blessing (since they already voted to pass it once), and we will get to make fun of doomers for the Nth time this year. 2025 is turning out to be pretty great for politics. Unless you're a communist, of course.

Suppressors and SBRs taken off the NFA as well?
