Why are competition and taking risks harmful?

a steady decline from a massive high..

we started 2018 with a 3.95% for 30 year mortgage, it went all the way up to 4.94% in november. sure, it's declined since then, but only to 4.51% current rate which is still much higher than what we started 2018 at

And so does you phone.. how often do you have your phone on you and it's NOT on?

You are paying more money than you did before, but because of a deduction cap not an increase in tax rate. You still have the same gross tax bill from state and federal, but you can no longer deduct the entirety of those state taxes from your federal taxes. The same amount of money is going to the social programs in your state through those taxes, and at the same time there is more money going to federal taxes. I'm not sure what you're referring to when you say these social programs are getting less money.

Punish in this context means reduce the amount of state taxes they can deduct from federal taxes - in effect increasing their tax rate. Isn't it predominantly "blue" people asking for more taxes for more social programs? Sounds like they got what they were asking for..

According to the left, deporting illegal immigrants who are breaking the law is a bad thing and we should therefore abolish ICE.

I see this argument presented over and over and over again but never any supporting information to prove that claim.

Not everyone can just up and move

Because he smoked pot on a podcast? Come on buddy it's not 1950 anymore, everyone knows marijuana (except when used in excess regularly) is totally and completely harmless.

C#'s implementation is much more impressive, through the reflection libraries, doesn't require unsafe code, is not a hidden implementation deal, and has a much cleaner interface. Also look into expressions and the awesome things you can do with the framework. Yeah yeah blah blah Microsoft, but that was the company of the past. New leadership has been focused on better things, open sourcing the Roslyn compiler and dotnet core. The c# of 2018 is a brand new beast
