He's now just an unabashed liberal schill pretending that he's still an economist. More like 28 years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure it'll work just fine now when we're 15% of the world GDP while running annual half-trillion dollar trade deficits. How the ***** did Krugman ever win a Nobel Prize?

By the way, I "got over it" when I moved from California. My wife and I "got over it" when she gave up her nursing career because our federal burden and that state's tax burden, combined with child care costs would have netter her about 43 cents on the dollar to work as a nurse. For that 43 cents, we would have given up our kids for eight hours per day to someone else. Tax burdens have consequences, and it is much easier now to opt out of any countries' tax burden if it is judged confiscatory. 70% is absurd, and her scheme to swipe that money so that we can be fossil free in twelve years is the stuff of morons, as is silly name calling. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't move to Kalifornia. At least it discouraged somebody. No need to sound whiney. That's a silly and unbecoming post. We need to start discouraging people from the coasts, fire zones, etc... Again... In the 1930s, people used their God given two feet to walk out of the Dust Bowls and to California, now go back... Wow... This Lib, Me, sounds conservative... LoL...

I lived there for 12 years, seven spent serving as a Navy pilot, though a good deal of that time was spent out of the state on aircraft carriers, met and married my wife there, had two children, and I used my "God given feet" to leave there, just as I used my "God given feet to leave your state. It certainly isn't "whiney" to make decisions based on what is in the best interest of your family. We don't "need to discourage people from the coasts," anymore than we need some inexperienced Congresswoman proposing idiotic tax policy to fund impossible and ridiculous fossil fuel policy. You should stop giving advice. It isn't sought nor valuable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Co-workers are down in Florida still cleaning up after the hurricane. It's freaking January. I don't deny climate change, but do you want some BS political football punted to everyone? You want to live there, then live there right, don't expect others to pay. It's unsustainable, why we have the BS wing of the liberals crying and whining about climate change... Congresswoman proposing idiotic taxes. Edited January 7, 2019 by ExiledInIllinois Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
