President Donald J. Trump: Orange is the New Black, House Slytherin Rises Also Heil Trump!

[Byrthnoth]

according to the tax policy center this is no longer the case. taxation as a % of GDP was 17.7% in 2015, for historical comparison: in 2005 16.7%, in 1995 17.8%, in 1985 17.2%, in 1975 17.3%, in 1965 16.4%, and in 1955 16.1%. since the end of World War II the mean has been 17.9%, which makes us a little low in recent years as a result of the stimulus package tax cuts but near the historical average (and soon to be over it, 2016 is projected to be 18.7%, 2017 19.1%).

OECD says the average tax revenue among surveyed countries was 34.3% in 2015 and the US is provisionally at 26.4%, but I admit our historic average is lower than I thought.

I was probably remembering the tax on the wealthiest tax bracket, which has declined sharply over the fifty years.

On one hand, they're refusing to call it a hate crime because "fuck donald trump" isnt sufficient grounds to call it a hate crime. I'm inclined to agree, but I'd be willing to speculate that if 8 years ago, 4 white guys tortured a black person saying "fuck barack obama", that would probably be considered a hate crime. Hell, 4 white guys torturing a black person will automatically be considered a hate crime.

But how the hell can "fuck white people" not be grounds to call it a hate crime?!?

it was just teen stupidity, just made him drink a lil toilet water and cut chunks of his hair out with a knife, you know regular stuff ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

It's like you guys still don't understand white privilege after all our talks.

Sad.

A bunch of city kids acting like fools and people want to stereotype as many left-leaning people with them as possible? Sounds about par for course lol.

I really don't know whether this should go in the Ms. Piggy thread or here.

THANK YOU FOR TUNING INTO THE LATEST INSTALLMENT IN OUR LONG RUNNING SERIES "MITCH MCCONNELL IS A FUCKING HYPOCRITICAL TOOL"

We tolerated him doing it for an entire year, for a nominee that was extremely qualified and a total middle-of-the-road moderate. He better suck it up and deal with it for a lot longer, because I'm 100% behind Schumer putting the screws to any nominee in Trump's first year. It has nothing to do with how I feel about Schumer either (he's a fucking tool) this is all about McConnell.

That said, if Trump wants to re-nominate Merrick Garland I'll accept it. And Mitch can go fuck himself as the rest of the Senate leaves him behind on the confirmation vote.
