Let’s negotiate. It’s almost as bad as people who choose the failed economic systems embodied in socialism or communism. We shouldn’t learn from history. Nay (sounds like Olde English), we should repeat the failures and wonder why. It is way more fun! wsj.com/opinion/donald-trump…

A Wealthy NYer Case for Pied-à-Terre Tax—it starts from a false premise that the tax collected is used appropriately and the tax on everything consumed when visiting is insufficient. One more NY tax to continue profligate spend. Joke. (No I don’t own one) wsj.com/opinion/a-wealthy-ne…

Trump Skeptical of Iran Proposal to Lift Strait Blockade: bc he should be. Look at the countries offering Iran support. We should ratchet up pressure until they crack. 50% of oil to pay our war debt. wsj.com/livecoverage/iran-wa…

Birthright Citizenship Case:in 1868 if you came to the country and resided for 5 years you were awarded citizenship. If you were born here under that understanding you were a citizen. So, my take simple: born here=citizen unless Amend Constitution. wsj.com/livecoverage/supreme…

The High Cost of ‘Affordability’…so true and the solution is so simple. 20/20 vision and Tariffs/Fair/Flat/Sales Tax and watch what happens to the economy…the ban on PE constructed rental home will just constrain supply…add it to bad policy. wsj.com/opinion/the-high-cos…

How the Iran War Ends: Nope. The most likely scenario is a MEF clearing the IRG and while our special forces remove intel and destroy caches of nuclear material/know how. Exxon gets a new contract. Iranians pay for our bombs. World says thank you. wsj.com/opinion/how-the-iran…

‘The Science Guy’ and Facts: oh boy, the facts undercut a lot of noise around the climate issues…we can care for the planet and strive to improve without misleading information…wouldn’t we want to accomplish that goal anyway? wsj.com/opinion/the-science-…

Democratic Senators Hatch Plans to End Income Taxes for Millions of Americans—-REVISION 20% Tariff and 20% Sales tax would completely eliminate the current tax code. Plus, fuel more growth. So easy. wsj.com/politics/policy/demo…

Dem Senators Hatch Plans to End Income Taxes for Millions of Americans—-forget this plan implement a 15% tariff plus add a 10% sales tax. Make more, spend more, get taxed more…Effectively tax all incl illegal immigrants and the black market. The end. wsj.com/politics/policy/demo…

Trump: unspoken goals: 1) choke off Russia from drones and oil; 2) take technology and know how; 3) put US interests in place to rebalance global energy power in US favor (US+Venezuela+Iran)…now, plenty of capacity available to focus on China. wsj.com/livecoverage/iran-is…

Trump Says Iran Strikes to Continue for Four to Five Weeks: 1) destroy nuclear capability; 2) destroy ballistic missile capabilities; 3) choke off proxies; 4) allow regime change for the millions suppressed/killed (women, minorities, LGTBQ, religious). wsj.com/livecoverage/iran-is…

Tariff Ruling Leaves Plenty of Hypocrisy to Go Around—true, but is Trump missing a key opportunity that the tariff’s are net positive and implore Congress to get on board by exercising its authority (do your job) to provide support for key Tariffs? wsj.com/opinion/tariff-rulin…

#parkplacemotorcarsDallas
#mercedes Thinking of servicing a Mercedes in Dallas, Texas don’t choose Park Place Motorcars of Dallas. It is hard to imagine how you could bungle the process unless you built a team to specifically underwhelm. The phone calls don’t get returned timely, the text app doesn’t spur consistent responses, the call center fields the calls (a call center for local dealerships) and bounces you back into voicemail. Seems like the on-hold recording should be, “Mercedes builds a decent car, but they didn’t build our service so expect mediocrity and you won’t be underwhelmed. We may get back to you today or we may go dark. You are not our top priority. We are dedicated to making you realize that you aren’t special and instill a sense of humility to make you a stronger person. Wait long enough and we will reach you patience and, perhaps, meditation. You will want to break things while on hold. This will only make you stronger.~ You’re, welcome. Management”

Great quote concerning California’s governance…”Since the milkvetch requires wildfires to propagate, the only way to boost its numbers is to let the land burn. A cynic might wonder if environmentalists interfered with fire prevention in hope of evicting humans from what they view as the plant’s rightful habitat. To radical environmentalists, every human is a colonizer.”…I mean if the tragedy wasn’t so horrible, you would be focused on the incompetence. So, don’t properly prepare for an inevitable fire, create conditions conducive to maximum damage…oh, and fine the utility that tries to “fire proof” infrastructure.

Homelessness rates jumped by double digits 2024–so you don’t control immigration and (despite billions in largess) gvt fail to build homes and create “job centers.” Then, weak fire preparedness in a state formed by Volcanoes. Who was in charge again? Rht😉 apple.news/A6RD4xtkpRi-CGIc6…

| Newsom Raises Gas Prices Again —how to take the world’s 5th largest economy and screw it: up-a master class. Why not lower prices at pump and take increased tax revenue to improve your grid to avoid forest fires? Put the rest in nuclear fusion research. apple.news/AZUW00ludQYarl28Z…
Trump on Illegal Migration? “Aid, abet, encourage” party to the crime. We need proper funding and a clear path. Pay taxes for 5 years and commit no crimes and (with some civics) become a citizen. Don’t let fear drive decision. We need pop growth to pay… wsj.com/opinion/what-can-tru…

Trump Should Fire the U.N. Forces in Lebanon—it assumes he wins, but recognizes only he will do it. Foreign policy made simple: pump oil, defund Iran/remove regime, cut drone supplies, establish boundaries in South China Sea. Strength and Honor. wsj.com/opinion/trump-should…
