This Absurd Tax Is the Very Reason People Are Fleeing the Northeast

24th January 2021

Charlie Cooke.

Last month, I got a notice in the mail from a debt collector. It was a personal property tax bill for my wife’s car — from a different state, Connecticut, which we had left three years earlier.

In Connecticut, they charge you for the privilege of owning a car, and I apparently owed taxes from 2017 — which, 814 days after they were levied, I was finding out about for the first time.

I don’t like taxes, but I always pay them. Had I known about this one, I’d have paid it, too. (The total fee was $250 — $150 for the tax, $70 for interest, and $30 in debt collection fees.) But I didn’t know about it, because, for three years, I was never told. Despite having my mail forwarded for a year and having family members who still live in the house we left, I didn’t receive a single letter or notice. Now, I had a debt collector’s letter in my hand.

President Biden’s Proposed Changes to 401(k) Plans

23rd January 2021

Read it.

Here’s a look at Biden’s proposed 401(k) changes:

The 401(k) tax deduction would disappear.
Workers would instead get a tax credit for 401(k) contributions.
The tax advantage of contributing to a 401(k) would be reduced for higher earners and increase for low and middle earners.
The creation of an automatic 401(k) for workers without access to a workplace retirement account.
Allowing caregivers to make catch-up contributions to retirement accounts.

The devil is, of course, in the details.

The problem with most such ‘soak-the-rich’ plans is that ‘the rich’ wind up being anybody who makes more than, say, a waitress or a cab driver — i.e. it winds up being a ‘soak-the-middle-class’ scheme (although that’s not on your copy) — the reason being that in order to get all of the money the Democrats are wanting to spend on their pet schemes the amount they can bleed from the Real Rich is totally inadequate.

Biden’s Interior Decorating Shows He’ll Be Pro-Science, Pro-Truth

22nd January 2021

Read it.

Taking the liberal media’s relief that they know have an ally in the White House to another level, CNN Newsroom host Brianna Keilar dedicated a lengthy segment to fawning over how the design for the Oval Office under his administration represented science, truth, and one of dignity that, unlike Trump’s, would bring honor to America. Keilar began by informing viewers that how the President decorates the Oval can tell us much about the occupant.

Texas Files First Major Lawsuit Against Biden Administration

22nd January 2021

Texas sued the U.S. government for ordering a halt to most deportations of undocumented immigrants, the first major lawsuit challenging President Joe Biden’s policies just two days into his term and a likely sign of what’s to come from other Republican-led states.

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton claims the directive from the Department of Homeland Security violated federal law by failing to seek input from the state. Paxton also accused the administration of failing to enforce immigration laws and granting a “blanket amnesty.”

Greene said Biden’s alleged involvement with Ukraine while serving as vice president constituted enough grounds to levy the charges.

“President Joe Biden is unfit to hold the office of the Presidency. His pattern of abuse of power as President Obama’s Vice President is lengthy and disturbing,” Greene said in a statement. “President Biden has demonstrated that he will do whatever it takes to bail out his son, Hunter, and line his family’s pockets with cash from corrupt foreign energy companies.”

“President Biden is even on tape admitting to a quid pro quo with the Ukrainian government threatening to withhold $1,000,000,000 in foreign aid if they did not do his bidding. President Biden residing in the White House is a threat to national security and he must be immediately impeached.”

Aero Precision Leaving Tacoma Over Gun Tax and Taking 800 Employees With Them

21st January 2021

Read it.

Aero Precision, one of the nation’s leading firearm parts and accessories manufacturers, warned Tacoma, Wash., city officials their proposed punitive gun and ammunition tax would have consequences. Officials passed the proposed increases and instituted the taxes and fees.

Aero Precision answered back. The company and its 800 employees announced plans to expand and grow their manufacturing base in nearby Lakewood, Wash. Instead of investing in more jobs, more infrastructure, and more taxes paid to the City of Tacoma, Aero is literally sending their business elsewhere.

Head ’em up, move ’em out.

He said that these companies claimed “falsely, you know — without any evidence really other than a couple of articles that didn’t have any evidence either — that, you know, Parler, somehow, was responsible for inciting violence.” Matze said that such an accusation against his company was “crazy because their statements alone — on the first day that it was released, you know, had over a thousand death threats to our lawyer alone. Our employees are harassed, you know. We’re harassed.”

The Road Ahead

21st January 2021

ZMan is not optimistic.

Whether this was ever true does not matter, as it is not true now. That silent majority is now a permanent minority. Further, the political marketplace no longer exists. You are not allowed to speak your mind to your fellow citizens, unless your opinions are approved by the managerial class. They are also making sure that your choices at the ballot box will be limited to their approved options. Even if you find a way around it, the magic of mail-in ballots will guarantee the outcome in advance.

What this means is the new age of managerial authoritarianism will require a new brand of politics that fits the age. All of the avenues of the old system have been closed off or corrupted, so they serve the ends of the regime. Mass censorship monopolizes the public space by the organs of the ruling class. Systematic ballot stuffing closes off the electoral route. Even the courts are a dead end. A court that claims the Founders wanted special rights for men in drag is no friend of the people.

A Note on the Inauguration

21st January 2021

Scott Johnson at PowerLine.

The inauguration put several crises vividly on display. Among them I would count a crisis of rhetoric and a crisis of doggerel. I found the rhetoric of Biden’s speech almost unbelievably flat, but the content was worse. Beneath a veneer of calls for unity he carried on a campaign of smashmouth politics. As Heather Mac Donald puts it, “It’s an odd way to seek national unity: call a significant portion of the American public white supremacists, racists, and nativists. Welcome to the Biden presidency.”

Wyoming state Sen. Anthony Bouchard announced a primary challenge to Rep. Liz Cheney on Wednesday after her vote to impeach former President Donald Trump last week.

“Liz Cheney’s longtime opposition to President Trump and her most recent vote for Impeachment shows just how out-of-touch she is with Wyoming,” Bouchard said in his announcement, calling for leaders who “stand up for America” and “fight for our way of life.”

Severian.

Rule by a clique of smug gangsters is the natural endpoint of universal prosperity, which is lethal to… I was going to write “the human mind,” but it’s more basic than that. It’s lethal to character. It’s lethal to seriousness.

We are a deeply, profoundly, terminally frivolous people. The people entrusted with enough armed power to reduce the entire planet to a cinder tear up their opponent’s speeches on camera. They kneel in the Capitol rotunda in honor of a drug-addicted criminal. Their supporters charge the Supreme Court chambers wearing knitted vagina stocking caps on their heads. All of them insist that working people should be denied their livelihoods if they, the working people, can’t keep up with the bespoke pronoun choices of the obviously mentally ill. They make a crazy man in a dress who insists on calling himself “Rachel” a public health official.

With Biden as President These 5 Trends Will Vanish From the Liberal Media

20th January 2021

Read it.

Lost In the Fun House

20th January 2021

Read it.

Hillary is deep into mental health territory here. Needless to say, there is zero evidence that Putin or any other foreign leader had anything to do with the breakdown in security at the Capitol. Hillary has skulked through the last four years, muttering conspiracy theories about President Trump and refusing to accept the legitimacy of his election. It is particularly rich that she is still trying to play the Russian card, given that it was she herselfwho bought and paid for the fake Russian dossier, and she knows full well that it was a fraud. Her fraud.
