Repeal and replace

No, I am not talking about Obamacare, though it applies equally.

What I am talking about is the tax code.  There is lots of talk in DC about doing something about taxes, or rates, or something.  Ask a builder whether it is easier to: bulldoze a condemned building and start over, OR to go in and rehab from foundation to roof.  It would be next to impossible to do SERIOUS reform of the current code.  How many pages?

THOUSANDS!

It can't be fixed.  Every time that they try to fix it, thousands of words are ADDED.  ADDED.  Not reformed.  Who cares what the rates are if it requires me to either hire a tax specialist or use a website or software to get through my taxes.  Well, okay, I care.  Lower rates AND a simplified code.
This is something that all should care about.  That all should write their Congressman and Senator.  Repeal and Replace.  No reform, no fix.  Repeal and Replace. Get rid of the tax code as is.

In case you didn't get it, REPEAL and REPLACE.

Share if you like, I reach so few.  Think about it.  Disagree?  Let me know what you think.

That is it, short, and sweet.  The antithesis of the tax code.

Civil Marriage: An Institution whose time has past?

Image
  Abstract              Marriage law is very much in the news. Court rulings have dramatically redefined marital law in the last fifteen years. Even church associations are not immune from this shift. But was it necessary, and is it the way forward? The question researched in this paper is the impact of attempting to codify into law what has traditionally been a religious rite, both on the institution of marriage itself, but on individual liberties as well. The paper will progress through the history of marital law and the rational used to establish those laws. I will demonstrate a cause and effect in redefining marriage and advance some statistics regarding these laws, and conclude with information about how, from a legal view, the traditional definition of marriage can be reinstated. Keywords:  same sex marriage, religious freedom, cohabitation, civil partnerships, redefining marriage Redefining Marriage through the...

Rand showed the way for small business. Is it time to act?

 As Democrats and Republicans in Blue states seek to consolidate power by shutting down small businesses, in the "Name" of COVID prevention, one must ask, is it time? Businesses, small businesses, are fighting against all odds to stay afloat. They are fighting and losing. But these are not impersonal entities, these mom and pop businesses are the lives of those who have built them. They have poured their lives into their businesses, and like any good parent, seeing their kid in the hospital will do anything to keep them alive. They will work themselves to death, just for their child to have one more breath. Those who see this pandemic and feel that it isn't the killer, but capitalism, are cheering the death along. They have nightly fantasies of Cloward and Piven, and the collapse of the economy. What even they need, though, are producers. They need people to continue the fight, to provide the last drop of fuel to propel them forward, even for just one more day. The powers...

The Brownback Effect, and why Donald Trump and those associated with cannot win in 2024.

Image
 As it stands, Donald Trump is likely to win the Republican nomination for President in 2024. Even Governor Ron DeSantis (FL) likely cannot beat him. He cannot win the general. A bold statement, though if thought about seems perfectly logical. As a reminder, it was when the Republicans in the Senate caved in December of 2015 on an Omnibus Spending Bill (sound familiar?) That on this very blog, it was predicted that not only would Donald Trump win the GOP nomination (The Lib supported at the time, Senator Rand Paul, then Ted Cruz, Gary Johnson (L), before supporting Trump), but that he would win the General Election. Sam Brownback served as an Ambassador in the Trump Administration, after being on the outs in Topeka as Governor. He had successfully been elected to the 2nd District in the House, moved to the Senate when Dole resigned to run for President, then ran as governor. He proposed significant tax cuts, which the state house went along with, but school districts were not prepa...
