  • It is astounding how many people make tax law social media content without any actual knowledge of how the tax code works. So many influencers think they’ve found a genius tax loophole, as if the professionals who actually wrote the law and fully understand it weren’t smart enough to think of how somebody might try to exploit it, and broadcast their dumb ideas to others who also don’t understand the tax code, peddling advice that will get someone audited and possibly prosecuted for tax evasion.


















  • No, I said I completely agree with this, this being that the state should not be providing wifi hotspots to school children. I was surprised that I actually agreed with Cruz on this because I pretty much never agree with him and consider him, in the words of John Boehner, Lucifer in the flesh. And I’m sorry if some of you thought I meant that I completely agreed with him on what he startes as his justification (morality police, censorship, etc.) which isn’t the case.

    But instead all you trigger-ready comment warriors are ready to burn me at the stake for what’s really a pretty sensible position.

    Wifi hotspots aren’t going to eliminate inequality. Students eith reliable Internet may have an unfair advantage, but teachers and administrators could minimize that by giving assignments that don’t really require Internet access to complete.

    Should all assignments be hand written, of course not. But do they need to be completed in a web browser? Nope. Good old word processor and spreadsheets work great.

    Holy moly, everybody is on edge. Understandable…
