Artificial kidneys are in the test phases. Not sure when they’ll enter trials but it’s very complicated.

The mods deleted the admins comment and tried to ban him from the community. That’s a no no in my book.
If the mods felt rooki was wrong, they shouldn’t have tried to display a power trip with their actions. They should have escalated to other admins.
Rooki deescalated by removing them as mods. That stopped their childish behavior.
@lwadmin For full disclosure I agree with rooki on this topic.
I may have missed it in the write up but I think the vegan mods needlessly escalated the situation by trying to ban and remove comments from an admin.
I am not saying I always agree with rooki but I respect his job as an admin.
The mods of vegan treated him disrespectfully in his capacity as an admin by deleting and banning him.
You should cover this in your terms of service.
They’re just excited the person isn’t half dead.
She wasn’t able to get a nomination through the standard channels. They had to put her in the back because they felt she was damaging Biden approval ratings.
He approval rate is low.

More people disprove than approve.
I proudly voted for Obama Kamala is not Obama. She’s not Clinton. Hell she’s not even a Joe Biden.
The president isn’t in charge of COVID. States are in charge of COVID. Pandemics are handled by the states with help from the federal government. BLM protest are once again state issues. I’m not sure why so many Americans don’t understand how the government is run. Presidents are not dictators. They are limited by the constitution and laws.
No why is the split so close? Harris isn’t a good candidate. She’s wildly unpopular and has been for years. He policies are horrible and the average American doesn’t want them. They are the opposite of what Americans want.
Biden has always been fairly unpopular. I’ve always thought the guy was an idiot but he isn’t far left. He fairly moderate to Leaning a little right.
We also have a large red/blue divide in this country and presidents are picked by the EC.
Trump is a horrible candidate but things ran well when he was in office. People will remember that.
The short version is we are running two awful candidates and that’s why the elections are close.
Polling has shown he’s taking votes from Biden mostly.
If Kennedy was a decent man, he’d pull out.
This is a close race and I think he’s pulling from Biden. I’ve heard he pulls from Trump but I don’t want to believe that.
Trump has a good chance of winning. Biden isn’t doing well in polls and Kennedy is stealing votes from Biden.

What he is saying your home is an unrealized gain which is true.
While we pay property taxes they are a small percentage and based on the tax value and not the fair market.
While not a fan of property tax they at least directly impact you by providing value to your local area. Why I don’t bitch much about property taxes. I’d rather pay those than federal taxes.
It was part of my compensation. It didn’t cost me anything.
It’s naive to think we will ever tax unearned income. Not only is it against the law, it would destroy everyone.
Tax avoidance isn’t a crime.
Do you use deductions on your 1040? That’s tax avoidance.
I’ve never heard deductions being allowed. Maybe a few but for the most part it’s about an equal rate across everyone or at least a few small brackets.
Different plans define income differently. If we are trying to fix the astern income should be everything. Selling an investment home, dividends, selling stocks, w2. Etc.
That’s my point. They were worth 20 million. Due to legal restrictions I couldn’t sell. As such I would have to pay taxes on 20 million. When I could sell they were worth zero.
So I would have ended up negative.
It’s however the law wants to define it. All the bills I’ve seen pushed are a flat rate with no deductions.
Have you seen anyone propose a flax tax with deductions? I have not.
Employing a flat tax means that taxpayers cannot take deductions or exemptions.
Well if I had to pay unrealized gains I’d have zero but have to pay taxes on 20 million.
It’s why we don’t do it. It would be overly complicated.
Taxes are not supposed to be painful. They are supposed to be fair and fund the government. Painful taxes just causes avoidance.
Flat means no deductions and an equal pay. It can still be done against brackets and be a flat tax.
No brackets work with credits and deductions. Someone with 100k in income could pay zero in taxes. A flat tax makes them pay taxes by removing deductions.
Personally I’d rather see a consumption tax but that freaks most people out.
I can’t support that. I myself once had 20 million in stock options but couldn’t sell it. By the time I could sell it, it was worth zero. Yet you in your system I would have paid taxes on it. Stock fluctuates in value to much. We just need way to force them sell the stock and then tax the stock as ordinary income.
Target has their own crime lab. No joke.
