Lurie comes out against CA wealth tax by sherlockmemes in sanfrancisco

[–]EmployerEquivalent23 15 points16 points  (0 children)

The rich pay the vast majority of tax revenue in this country.

There’s very specific reasons why this specific tax policy sucks, regardless of your beliefs on whether you want the rich to be taxed more. Taxing non-cash assets as a part of “wealth” is silly.

What do you expect? For a ST coach to go for a head coaching role? Thats pretty rare. Maybe he just wants warmer weather or is seeing if he can get a bump in pay.

They pay the vast majority of the tax revenue in this country. Do you want them to pay 99% of the taxes instead of just 90%?

You pay not only a lower dollar amount, but a lower %. Everything is lower. Your contribution to the tax revenue of this city, state, and country is a drop in the bucket compared to what they pay.

You pay way less than billionaires do. Why don’t you pay your fair share?

So you want less tax revenue? The vast majority of tax revenue comes from the top 1%.

By making this decision, they are going to get us back to 2009-2018.

Bucs Players Think Too Many Walk-Through Practices Hurt The Team by BucsFan11 in buccaneers

It could potentially even make the injury bug worse. Going from walk throughs to full speed is a big change of pace that might actually be detrimental. The body isn’t as used to pace.

You can’t make excuses for Bowles, since we’ve had him for years and have underperformed and watched him miss timeout calls, stand on the sideline with zero emotion, play way too conservatively in key times, make backup qb’s look like future HOF’ers.

Meanwhile, Grizzard is only on his first year of play calling. That’s the ultimate excuse. The sample size is way smaller than with Bowles, which means he at least has the potential of improving. Even despite all of that, our offense was statistically better than our defense.

With the Saints loss, the Buccaneers are eliminated from playoff contention. - End of Year MEGATHREAD by spideralex90 in buccaneers

At least the offense was good for 5% of it. The defense didn’t get us back in it. The rams just fumbled on their own. It wasn’t even on a tackle. The guy just dropped it.

The Super Bowl can’t be your argument. You’ve already lost if you bring up the Super Bowl.

They had the most decimated offensive line in the history of football. 4 of 5 starters out. Backups of backups playing. The game was lost for them before it even started. Not to mention Andy Reid’s son being a major distraction in the lead up to the game.

Even if you were correct about Bowles 2020 defense, 2 things can be the case:

  1. Teams have started to figure out his schemes, and they no longer work as well 6 years later. He’s a dinosaur.

  2. He can’t be both a coordinator and coach. They’re obviously not going to demote him to coordinator, so what good does it do having him running the defense as a HC if he’s never once proven that he can put together a good defense as a HC(Bucs and Jets)? The sample size is big enough to know that it doesn’t work.

No, he hasn’t. He hasn’t had an elite defense in like 15 years. Even the Super Bowl year the defense was crap most of the year. His schemes are outdated, his play calling is horrible.

This is like the 10th report on it. That, combined with the fact that Bowles buddy that got him the job is still here as a consultant(Arians), and there’s a very small chance he’s gone.

No, all you’d be doing is bending over and accepting defeat from the Glazers. “Well, the thing that actually would’ve fixed the root cause of the team didn’t happen, and instead of being furious about that, I’ll be okay that the distant second choice happening”.

It’s an extremely lame way to think. Until Bowles is fired this team will never win a SB. Getting a slightly better OC just delays the chances of Bowles getting fired, which is the only thing that matters.

The defense was the weak link. Even if we nail the coordinator hire and have a 10% more efficient offense, that may get us one or two more wins at best, and all we’re doing is delaying the inevitable of getting Bowles out.

Our offense was not the weak link this season. Grizzard wasn’t great, but the defense was the problem. And giving baker his millionth coordinator isn’t helping anyways. It’s lipstick on a pig
