How's that tax cut working out?

Could be accurate depending on how many kids he has. Say he has 5 kids, that's $10k in tax credits. The child tax credit was greatly expanded this year, not only going from $1000 to $2000, but also to qualify for it, instead of phasing out at $75k (single filer) it starts at $200k. This new tax...

Connecticut OKs Bill Pledging Electoral Votes To National Popular-Vote Winner

I want everyone's vote to count equally no matter what state you're in. Consider that in California, the most populous state with ~39.54 million only gets 55 EC votes and Wyoming, the least populated state with ~579k gets 3 EC votes. That means that each individual Wyoming vote weighs 3.7 times...

Breaking- Church shooting in TX

Just another shooting that could possibly change the gun owning minds of those directly affected. Once we get enough of those people, then maybe something might be done.

Country music star has change of heart on 2nd amendment after Las Vegas massacre

Well, this goes into what I was thinking. The only way a change can be made in regards to gun rights/control is if the event directly affects the person voting(politicians). Politicians are too removed from the event that they can still be influenced by money. Obviously the politician can't be...

OK to accept PayPal payment for selling laptop on Craigslist (in person transaction)?

well, if you're doing it in person, after the buyer verifies all is well with the laptop you're selling, make sure he only pays you via paypal gifted payment. That way he won't have any way to make a bogus dispute of the charge with paypal.
