I honestly wonder if it is because Reagan is waining and Trumps version is in power now. Ronnie isn’t as important a “saint” now.

- Comment on Why did the first people to settle in very cold climates decide to settle in such a harsh climate? 3 weeks ago:
There have been some good responses…
I’ll add my poor one.
Adventurous people, wanting to be away from others would also weigh in.
As above no one moved to Norway from the Fertile Crescent.
People had to figure out clothing and fishing and hunting and farming then how all those things we different as they move further north. James Burke, in Connections points out how the plow changed. In light sandy soils a stick works, but in heavy wet clay you need heavy curved iron plows.
So. Why? Because Bob smells, and never cleans up. We’re outta here — but over 10000 years give or take.

- Comment on Under Trump will anything happen to my brothers Social Security Disability? He is 42 and draws it for mental illness. 3 weeks ago:
Short version— we don’t know.
Longer version— it is likely, doge is looking to make cuts, and while it would be insanely unpopular, it could be on the table.
The treasury secretary wants to reduce the deficit to 3% of gdp but also to cut taxes… so cuts to social programs are possible (likely)
So while we can say we don’t know for sure, it is highly likely.

- Comment on Can someone define "liberal" (in its use as an insult) for me? 4 months ago:
In the USA. As others in the thread have said…
It is meant to ”other” — “You” are a good person, loves your Mama; loves Jesus and America too… ( miss you Tom Petty)
But “they” are other… those dang coastal elites they are latte sipping LIBERALS and hate everything about you.
It identifies them as wanting to take everything away from you. They don’t love Jesus , not the way you do. They want EVs forced on everyone. Etc

- Comment on Is someone safe if they report income from illegal means to the IRS? 5 months ago:
Oooh. I like that.
I’d think that courts would say that you can’t claim the fifth, since you self reported the illegal income. And that had you failed to claim it, you’d be evading taxes….
So yes. You COULD claim your 5th amendment rights against self incrimination, but then you’ve violated the 16th where you’ve failed to declare income.
- Comment on Is someone safe if they report income from illegal means to the IRS? 5 months ago:
It is not a safe option.
It is designed as a catch all.
The FBI isn’t going through tax returns looking for Illegal income; rather if you’re suspected of illegal activity, they WILL go through your tax returns, because if you didn’t report your illegal income that is another law you’ve then broken. — See Al Capone
So. It is both a very bad idea, and a good idea to report your illegal income
A better idea is to not do anything illegal; or at least do the illegal thing offshore and hide the income there. Like a good multinational corporation would.
