You sure? Come harvest time, prices will rise with either labor cost increase or crops sitting in the field because the cheap labor source has been cut off. Does your research include soft costs, or you just looking at federal outlays? -

I'll leave that to a Mustang fan.

Correct. That’s why the approximately 12 Million that crossed the southern border recently are a net negative per capita on the U.S. economy. I’ve already posted the numbers and data on this provided to Congress in another thread. 😬😉 Again, I suggest waiting to see what actually winds up in the Bill. I think it’s going to have a tough time in its present form. This might wind up like Texas SB25 (MAHA Bill) after HEB lobbied against it so hard because they don’t want you to know what’s in the food you’re buying from them. It’s watered down so much now, it’s practically useless. -

We're wasting another good pitching outing. No offense. Good grief. -

Bats come alive. 9-1 Astros over the A’s in the 4th. Altuve with 2 Hrs. (So far)

Would like to hear from the HF folks. HF seems to have lost the most starters to graduation of all the teams in the district.

Well, Roe vs. Wade had been turned over to the states. Texas judge questioned the safety of the abortion drug and the injunction was brought on by a lawsuit. One would think that any woman considering killing their baby should think safety first. It was ed by the SC. Has any drug that has been approved by the FDA ever turned out to be unsafe? These rogue judges of yours have no lawsuits pending. They just stroke a pen to block Trump. Keep digging that hole. You would rather see an ms-13 gang member, wife beating, illegal alien get due process than Americans who were involved in Jan. 6th. They were wrongfully thrown in solitary confinement without due process. You even support hamas which means you support the enemy. What kind of an American does that? Since you felt it necessary to point out the three branches with checks and balances, how can Trump be called a dictator? Ain’t it funny? Lmao

Oh, you mean like that one in Texas that made the abortion pill I junction nationwide. And you call me a hypocrite. I’m telling you, man, weak arguing skills.
-
I give a box of rocks more credit than you. You are going to try and convince me that a federal judge can file an injunction that covers the entire country? That is for the Supreme Court. A single judge’s mandate is more powerful than the president? Talk about dictatorial. You are truly ate up with it. I do like your new moniker for Trump….Weasel….he is cunning and much smarter than you give him credit. Your hatred show in your every post. You trip over it.

Many people are able bodied but not able minded. -
Facts are stubborn things. A landslide isn’t 60%. I was incorrect. It is generally considered a landslide when the victory is by 15 points or more. It doesn’t matter what anyone predicts. A 2 point win is not even close to a landslide or mandate. I told you about checks and balances because your post demonstrated a misunderstanding of the separation of powers. You really need to work on your factual arguing skills.

So, you go from 1.39 to ? You need to have a sizable investment portfolio for this to really hit your nonprofit. We’re talking in the millions to billions range. I haven’t read the numbers. But, if you say triple, that’s still only about 5% tax on investment income. As a nonprofit private foundation charity, how much investment income is needed? Is there a need to sit on that much cash? I thought the purpose of a charity was to provide support by giving? Not make income. I understand operating costs as I started and ran a nonprofit for years. But, my goodness. Will need to apportion out more carefully. That’s if this even stays in the final Bill. Note: After reading the proposed changes, a private nonprofit will still pay 1.39% on investments up to $50 Million. That’s a sizable investment portfolio. Not sure you’re gonna get much sympathy from Joe/Jane Smith who will have their taxes go up a much higher pct. when they’re barely getting by and you crying about paying—at most—10% on BILLIONS of investment income when you’re a tax advantaged nonprofit charity. That’s still less than the 12% most middle income folks pay, and most will never see a million in their lifetimes. But, many still probably give to charities. There may be many things not to like about this proposal. I haven’t read it all yet. But, I’m not sure this one is a biggie to the majority. This one strikes me as tone deaf… -
It certainly is when people like you predicted a landslide for Kamala and Hillary. Lmao. You’re going to tell me about checks and balances? What I said is true. You simply can’t admit the hypocrisy. You are laughable.
-
You are funny as all get out. A landslide is considered an election where the winner receives over 60% of the popular vote. Weasel got 49.7, not even a majority. To call it a landslide is laughable, to put it mildly. As for the courts, we have three equal branches. Checks and balances, you know? An injunction is not a final ruling. Man, you are digging deep and still coming up empty.

Beating Melissa will be exceedingly difficult. Here is Fullers take on it: "Oh my gosh, I have no idea," Fuller said with a chuckle about how his team should approach the matchup. "There's not many people who have an answer for that lineup. What they're doing is absolutely unreal, so nothing but respect for that. We're going to go to the drawing board and figure out a way to at least slow them down and keep ourselves in the game. But yeah, I mean, what they've done is absolutely incredible. Nobody's done what they're doing. We know we've got our work cut out for us, but this group believes that if we go play like we're capable of, we're going to be in the ballgame and have a chance to win it. We're going to give it all we've got next Friday." [Hidden Content] Whatever happens though, the Lady Eagles SOARED this year!
