Fair Share?
Neo-Marxist Democrats continual to claim that the ridge do not pay their fair share.
However, if you look at national income data, the top 1% share of national income after taxes has remained constant since 1960.
What is clear is a continual and dramatic increase in the amount of taxes, taking from those making more and transferred to those making less.
In fact, there is an argument that these tax transfers and entitlement systems discourage work.
Ohio amendment
It seems to me that the Ohio amendment fits what most Americans probably agree with: Up until a fetus is viable, a moment should have a right to an abortion. After viability, abortions may ( and should) be restricted to cases where they’re necessary to save the life of the mother. My guess is that is where Ohio will end up
But interestingly, the language opens up the likelihood that the neo-Marxist Democrats will continue to pursue their desire to have mentally unhealthy children being able to decide to have permanent life altering treatment and surgery without their parents approval

2022 Homicide Incidents
The FBI just released 2022 crime data. A quick look at the incidents of non-negligent, non-justified homicides where the victim and offender are black or white shows that:
- blacks are significantly, disproportionately suffering from homicides
- blacks are significantly, disproportionately committing homicides
- blacks are slightly, disproportionately committing white homicides
- blacks are dramatically, disproportionately committing black homicides

Don’t trust evil
Iran and Hamas are evil. You cannot trust evil. And while acknowledging that even a blind pig can find an acorn every once in a while, there is a dramatic difference between Biden and the previous administration regarding trusting Iran and Hamas.

I support Israel and the US
I am not Jewish. I am barely Catholic. BUT- I support Israel. As best as I can tell Israel is not evil. Hamas and Iran are evil and want to eradicate the Jews.
That part of the world began as wandering nomads between the early civilizations of Mesopotamia and Egypt.
It then became Cannan, tribes of Mesopotamians.
Then for a long, long time It was Egypt. Then for a time Alexander the Great’s, then the Roman Empire’s and then once again Egypt. Then for around 1400 years it was the Ottoman Empire’s
It was long inhabited by Christians, Jews, and Muslims.
In 1918, after the Ottoman Empire lost the war, Britain was given responsibility for administering that region.
Britain created Palestine as a homeland for the Jews and Jordan for the Arabs.
The Arabs never accepted the presence of the Jews, and continued to battle and resist.
Britain turned the problem over to United Nations who in 1947 proposed boundaries for Israel for the Jews. The United Nations Security Council accepted these boundaries in 1948.
On the eve of these boundaries beginning, the Arab countries invaded what was to be Israel. They lost. Upon losing this invasion Israel occupied the Gaza strip, and the West Bank.
Around 1956, 1967, and 1972 the Arabs tried invading Israel three times. They lost.
Israel has repeatedly proposed and accepted two state solutions.
Israel tried to give Gaza back to the Egyptians. They don’t want it.
Israel unilaterally left the Gazza strip to allow the Arabs remaining there, calling themselves Palestinians, to rule as they please. The Palestinians elected Hamas who then ruined Gaza and made it a terrorist Haven.
Israel is not evil.
Iran and their terrorist organizations, Hamas and Hezbollah, are evil and have a stated goal of destroying Israel and actively work to do so.
There is an easy way to stop the deaths in the Middle East.
Hamas can lay down their weapons and unconditionally surrender.
Iran can accept the existence of Israel and stop promoting its destruction.
They’re not tax breaks
Corporate tax break or investment discouragement
You often hear of the corporate tax breaks that the IRS through Congress action give corporations. However, what is often the case, is that Congress is deciding what expenses can be recognized when.
Companies spend money. And some cases they can deduct that spending in the same year they spend it. However, in many cases, they are not allowed to deduct those expenses in the year they spend it. They have to spread those expenses over several years. When they invest in equipment, they have to depreciate it over several years. Investments in research and development were allowed to be expense in the year they were spent. Now, the IRS is requiring research and development expenses to be spread over multiple years.
This increases the taxes the companies have to pay in the year they are investing. And while they will then pay lower taxes in later years, this requires companies to find money in the current year to pay the current taxes.
This discourages investment in research just as it discourages investment in equipment.
So, you see, it’s not tax breaks. It’s removing penalties on investment. Investment is good.
