Taxes + Interest

Saying “lower taxes” while accruing trillions of dollars in debt is not actually lower taxes.

It is taxes plus interest.

Which is about the most expensive way there is to pay taxes.

Look around at the state of the U.S. economy at this moment and you (should) learn a vital lesson: overextending on credit is a dreadful […]

I’m proud of my country because this year we’re deciding we’re done with our long history of racism and sexism.

Parsley & McCain

Anticipation and excitement, that’s the mood in my house during election […]
