    The fine GOP House majority

    The Republicans are basically foreshadowing a debt ceiling showdown. As is, $31 trillion of debt is a talking point, not a problem. It's actually really poor economics to have a balanced budget, because often times the spending pays for itself through growth. However, the projected $150 trillion...

    Trading Around the World in Co-Working Places

    Yeah, I would do that. I would spend at least 153 days of the year in PR and less than 90 in the USA. I would basically avoid PR from August-November every year and take a couple of months throughout the rest of the year to go elsewhere. Idea is to move there in December this year. Probably...

    Bolsonaro refuses to concede Brazilian presidential election

    Bump, because this has remarkably gone almost the exact same way as 2020 for the Trump of South America. It truly is deja vu. I know they say history repeats itself, but we see just a 2 year lag with just about everything in Brazil.

    Bolsonaro supporters breach security barriers, break into Brazilian Congress and presidential palace

    Wouldn’t be surprised if Trump calls them Brazilian patriots. Bolsonaro is basically his top protege.

    Trading Around the World in Co-Working Places

    For me personally, this is just nonsense. Almost all the money I've earned in my life so far has come from trading. Income fluctuates drastically year to year. If you're bringing in mid six figures one year you're paying six figures in taxes. Then you can have a shit year where you're flat or...

    Trading Around the World in Co-Working Places

    Citizens of U.S. territories have their own tax rules. It's the only way to avoid the IRS while maintaining U.S. citizenship. I think I understand the U.S. rules. I know I owe taxes to the federal government as long as I'm not a resident of one of our territories. I'm more concerned about...

    Trading Around the World in Co-Working Places

    I specifically mentioned using the co-work spaces. Like a global WeWork pass.

    Trading Around the World in Co-Working Places

    This year I'm an American citizen living in FL. My lease is up in May and I expect to spend significant time traveling. Probably mostly Canada this summer. I am considering moving to Puerto Rico though in December. With their rules you don't pay any capital gains, but you're not allowed to have...

    To any of those countries though? I get that I have to pay taxes to America.

    Trading Around the World in Co-Working Places

    How does this impact taxes? Say you want to trade from We-Works (or similar) around the world staying for less than 90 days (or whatever the maximum time they allow before a VISA, 30-180, but less than 183), are you obligated to pay taxes on those profits? Does it matter if you're a FINRA...

    2024 Swing States

    Glenn Youngkin could be the nominee. I think he, Noem, and DeSantis are possibly the 3 most acceptable alternatives to Trump's base. He basically won his election on CRT. A lot of it depends on the economy. Very good chance of a recession as we continue to fight inflation.

    The fine GOP House majority

    I fully realize Biden's major legislative accomplishments are over for this term. Like I said, there's a couple of things that have to pass that have always passed no matter who was POTUS. They are now in jeopardy of passing with a far-right minority controlling the bills. I remember the 2011...

    The fine GOP House majority

    It's not about being MAGA, it's about making sure the government works. It's about making sure we can have a budget, raise the debt ceiling, etc. It's obvious that Biden is now a lame duck. The Democrats just had more leverage than they will over the next two years and they completely blew it...

    The fine GOP House majority

    I think a lot of them just want the Republicans to be in chaos. Good fundraising material for them. They know it's horrible for the country, but they're selfish assholes just like the Republicans.

    The fine GOP House majority

    Well, first they should have tried to see if any moderate Republicans could support a less Trumpy candidate. There are a couple of Republicans left who voted to impeach Trump after all. Then they should have tried to get concessions from McCarthy that would have given him more power overall...

    The fine GOP House majority

    I know that partisan hackery is the norm, but it should be every politician's job to do what's best for the country. It shouldn't be about what fucking team you're on and hoping the other side looks worse. The Democrats don't look good.

    The fine GOP House majority

    As far as I'm concerned Schiff and Democrats can shut the fuck up. They didn't do anything productive to try and get Republicans to the middle. Showing unity behind a candidate who had zero chance for 15 straight times was terrible use of any leverage they could have wielded. Now the country is...

    2024 Swing States

    I got the following 7: AZ, GA, MI, NC, NV, PA, WI Red Wave: VA, ME, NH, MN I thought TX could be moving like GA. Trump only won by 5 points in 2020 just like he only won by 5 in GA in 2016. However, Abbott won by 11 there showing it's still probably out of reach for Democrats in 2024. The only...

    The fine GOP House majority

    Gaetz is now flexing to the newest hot freshman congresswoman. Gaetz likes them as young as possible so it's probably making Boebert jealous. You can tell she's not as amused sitting next to the older guy.
