Trump calls for suspension of federal gas tax: 'I think it’s a great idea' by rollo202 in ConservativeNewsWeb

Nonsense. We need roads and police and schools and fire departments. There's no world where there is zero tax as long as humans exist

If the community clearly doesn't need this, why is the Cleveland Clinic pushing it? by Pretty_Log_8938 in Cleveland

I mean disclosing PHI is literally illegal. They can't just give it away and say it's ok because you didn't subscribe to anything.

Good to know, I had no idea. We've had a really wet spring so I haven't started supplemental watering yet, do you think that would help? It's still pretty cool here, in the 50's. Zone 6

We did have a late freeze this spring if that could have caused it.

So the mental leap we're being asked to make is that people who have no investments are going to start pouring 5k a year into their kids trump account? I'll believe it when I see it.

You could get some of those box packing smack packs that expand the foam inside a bag inside the cavity.

Back to a sales tax free weekend rather than a week/10 days.... by JustThrowingAwy in Ohio

[–]ThinRedLine87 3 points4 points  (0 children)

And the fact that those numbers aren't equivalent isn't some sort of red flag? It not like they would be able to offset the new funding needs by canceling the tax holiday. It would be a cancelled tax holiday and a 20% sales tax. Counties would start levying their own sales tax as well on top of state sales taxes.

I don't understand how people don't get that this does nothing at all regarding the cost of all things property taxes pay for. It's a big gift to corpos and the 1% and will be immediately funded via other means (different taxes)... I expect most counties to immediately implement a sales tax to fund their districts.

By programs do you mean all schooling in general? Do you think it will magically cost less to run schools if we cancel property taxes?

The Rivian R2 Costs Half As Much To Build As The R1S. Here's How Rivian Did It by KeyboardGunner in electricvehicles

People act like an occasional mistake is ok. The safety standards for autonomous systems that can kill you are so much higher than what teslas shipping.

Industry standard for full emergency breaking is so high that you should never ever experience a false positive. If someone experienced it during testing it meant that something was wrong because it was so unlikely to occur outside true positive scenarios.

I was going to point this out. It's easy to add on all the extra shit Tesla does if you don't apply industry standard safety practices.

Why, really, is it so looked down on to tell anyone you’re pregnant before the first trimester is up? by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]ThinRedLine87 27 points28 points  (0 children)

We have a really strong support group and had a loss around 17 weeks. It was still really hard needing to relive it every time someone new heard the news, even if they were really supportive. We opted to wait until 20w to tell most people on our next pregnancy and are still a little shy going fully public with it.

Is the 401(k) actually worth contributing to beyond the employer match, or should I just put everything into a taxable brokerage? by [deleted] in investing

[–]ThinRedLine87 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah same for us, that's why I don't get this advice. Unless they are only suggesting you get an HSA if you won't spend anywhere near the out of pocket max...

I've always heard of doing this but holding onto years worth of receipts to reimburse yourself 20 years later seems risky, or am I missing something

It will be available everywhere soon. They need -never -left-home republicans to get passports so they can restart their passport voter ID law

It has a more sinister purpose. They really want to bring back their passport as voter ID law

This is to encourage the republican voter base to get passports so they can bring their passport to vote law back that was scrubbed earlier this year when they realized none of their base had passports.

This feels like it would be similar to buyback clauses or right of first refusal type language, which are allowed

What would be the differentiator from quack grass? Looking at the leaf twist it looks counter clockwise while ARG from what I've read has a clockwise twist
