Why Do the Rich Get Away With Ultra-Low Tax Bills?
Gary Winslett, The National Interest - 25 minutes ago
*Gary Winslett* *Society, Americas* America's complex tax code is littered with opportunities for wealthier taxpayers to reduce their bill quite substantially. People tend to have one of two reactions to the revelation that President Donald Trump has paid little to no taxes in recent years: He’s either an amoral tax cheat or he’s smart. To me, it reveals just how much is wrong with the U.S. tax code, which Congress treats as a sort of policy Swiss Army knife to deal with innumerable desired social and economic policy goals, from homeownership to protecting the Maine blueberry in...
No, President Trump, Suburbia Is No Longer All White
Ernest B. McGowen III, The National Interest - 25 minutes ago
*Ernest B. McGowen III* *Politics, Americas* Black suburbanites are more politically active than their neighbors. President Donald Trump has tweeted up a storm about how his Democratic challenger Joe Biden wants to “abolish suburbs” and institute programs that would bring impoverished criminals into the suburbs, where they will destroy the “suburban lifestyle dream.” In the final stages of his campaign, Trump has made an explicit appeal to suburban women: “So can I ask you to do me a favor? Suburban women, will you please like me? I saved your damn neighborhood,” the president sa...

History is Collectivist
Unknown, The Conservative Socrates - 1 hour ago
History is not made by individuals; it’s made by collectives which are brought together by the forces of religion, mythology, nationalism, economic incentives and upheavals, political agenda, ideology, technological and militaristic expansions, as well as the fears, prejudices, and hatreds of a people. If any issue, irrespective of whether it's moral or immoral, does not gather the support of a collective, it will not make history and will have no impact on mankind’s future.
Brainwashing the Masses: 6 Companies Own Almost ALL of the Media in the U.S. – Using Medical “Doctors” to Sell Their Message
AdminM, Medical Kidnap - 1 hour ago
The current "war against the Coronavirus" is primarily an information war, with the corporate media putting forth a unified message they want the public to believe, and any efforts to present alternative information is vigorously opposed and ridiculed. Six major companies own almost all of the media outlets in the U.S., including TV, print, and Internet, which includes video games.

Arnold Kling on Modigliani-Miller and money

Arnold Kling recently posted on the implications of the Modigliani-Miller (M-M) theory of corporate finance for monetary economics.

Section 230 Hearing: Lots of Partisan Sparring, and Technical Difficulties
Stephen Silver, The National Interest - 1 hour ago
*Stephen Silver* *Section 230, Americas* This year, social media companies have begun to block more social media posts, whether they contain coronavirus misinformation or claims about voting that are untrue. This has led to calls from both parties to revise or even repeal Section 230. The president has called for the latter action, while executive orders, FCC rulemaking and legislative fixes have been proposed to alter Section 230.

Cloture Reform in the Senate and the Evolution of Norms
Gerard N. Magliocca, Balkinization - 2 hours ago
An assumption underlying many of the proposals for action in the next Congress is that the Senate will either abolish or significantly modify the filibuster. While I think that changing the filibuster is a good idea, I doubt that this will actually happen. Even if Democrats win control of the Senate, that does not mean that there will be a majority in favor of cloture reform. There is also a dynamic aspect to the prospects for cloture reform. Mitch McConnell is a smart guy. He will understand that the surest way to convince a majority to end the filibuster would be to use that ta...
