No, the top tax rate is 37%.
With lottery prizes, the full amount is usually only available as annuity payments over 20-30 years. If you pick a lump sum, it’s typically only 40% of the full amount.
This winner chose the lump sum payment, so his lottery prize was about $600,000,000.
I’ve already addressed that point.
With such a high majority it would have just been overturned immediately, so no, he couldn’t have vetoed the bill. An attempt to do so wouldn’t have helped at all and might have undermined future cooperation.
No, he doesn’t. This is Trump just hurling executive orders at things he doesn’t like.
I clarified further. In the rail strike case, it was a senate bill, not an executive action. And the bill passed 80-15. Biden signed the bill, but that isn’t the same thing at all.
That’s incorrect, and these situations aren’t close to comparable.
When Biden was in power, eight out of twelve unions had already ratified the contract, and the senate passed a bill to force the final four to accept it. It passed 80-15, so Biden couldn’t have vetoed it if he wanted to.
Trump is attempting to ban unions altogether, by executive order.
I agree with what you’re saying and also it feels worth pointing out how pervasive the rhetoric of profitability has become.
We don’t talk about the military running at a loss, or the department of transport, or any other part of the government. We talk about their cost, because that’s really what it is. Services don’t “lose” money, they cost money.
They’re describing LORAN.
Peace be upon you.
What workplace is this that has dorms?
A ton of stuff. Community colleges are typically located with good commuter access, offer classes outside of normal business hours, have open admissions, and don’t have to subsidize large research departments or typically have to support the cost of onsite residential buildings.
I mean, it would also be good to see the cost of in-state tuition at state universities come down, but community colleges fill a different niche and the primary reason they didn’t offer bachelors before was lack of demand, but that has now changed.
Couldn’t agree more. And they want that control because of greed.
