"There’s absolutely no reason to get stuck on an idea that no other country has ever tried, which has so many obvious problems, and which voters just aren’t going to understand anyway. Taxing the rich shouldn’t be this hard."

Unrealized gains taxes are a pointless hassle

There are much better ways to tax the rich. We don't need this one.

Look, I hate to tell you this, because it's a little depressing, but the reason you can't seem to find a good man/good woman is because you're not horny. When you were 23 you were like "OMG, SEX is amahhhzing!!", and then you stuck with that person for the sex and eventually both

I don't think it's an exaggeration to say that it's fascist to throw a man in prison for 20 years for giving people food, water, and a place to sleep.

Scott Warren, a 36-year-old academic, faces 20 years in prison if convicted and sentenced to consecutive terms for providing food, water, and a place to sleep to two undocumented men over three days last January.

This should be obvious, but the reason people jumped on the "Israel bombed a hospital and killed 500 people" story was because the demand for one big splashy headline Israeli atrocity to balance out the Hamas baby-slaughter is outstripping the supply of same.

Japanese poor people do everything right - they get a job, avoid violence, don't do drugs, and don't have kids out of wedlock - and yet they're still poor. This suggests that poverty is NOT mainly caused by bad behavior.

Genuinely curious: are there examples of an American student protest movement where we now think, with the benefit of hindsight, the kids were on the wrong side of the issue? Every student movement I can think of was vindicated by history. Are there counter-examples I’m missing?
