Probably the most interesting aspect (to me, YMMV) is the "obligations" extraction -- essentially pulling out who must/must not/may/etc. do what given a new regulatory action: https://frtracker.app/requirements

Take a look if you don't mind, I think I got a rough approximation of what you were looking for implemented.

Thanks for the tip, I'll give it a shot!

I've argued[0] for similar involvement by the USPS. Got a lot of "good idea!" comments and no traction.

Absolutely, but that doesn't erase the fact that the government gathering the information directly is an escalation. They know they can subpoena it -- that presents a hurdle. They're opting to end around said hurdle.

Sure, but how is the government simply obtaining the data directly not an escalation? A subpoena at least requires an additional step and ostensible checks.

The talking point that private industry is tracking you as well is tired, and ostensibly smart people should stop trotting it out. Meta and Apple can't arrest you or secret you away to a foreign country -- at least not yet. That makes the distinction a difference.

How would you substantiate this statement? He won with among the smallest popular vote % margins in history [0]. In fact he won by less than HRC beat him by in 2016. There is no strong mandate for this administration, regardless of how you slice it.

As above, it is common. See: property taxes and mark to market. It is perceived as being administratively infeasible because the folks who would be paying the biggest bills want you to believe that.

Defunding NIH and gutting the public research pipeline, best we can do.

A simple threshold would resolve the former (say, $10m), though I'm not even sure it's required as that isn't what a mortgage interest deduction is.

No, it's a bad hypothetical.

A refundable credit would provide the credit regardless of burden (i.e. it will create a refund for every dollar it credits you beyond your burden).

I believe he was indeed, in a sense, hunting peasants.

Same here.

The Demon-Haunted World - Carl Sagan

BBC In Our Time - eclectic topics, great hosts.

Aria Code by WNYC - introduces an aria and then plays it. Great opera primer for opera newbs.

I’ll share mine as it fits most of your conditions save for not being particularly long. It’s a daily legal news show ostensibly for attorneys but with a mostly non-attorney listenership: (“Minimum Competence” - https://minimumcomp.com).

This is way cool.

"In the UK, software that’s incapable of deleting transactions apparently isn’t enough to guarantee it’s not an ESS tool—it also must work to obstruct any user who tries to delete transactions. This standard casts an overbroad net, capturing commonplace business tools such as Microsoft Excel, Google Sheets, and MySQL."

Tax attorney here. The "audit representation" is worthless.

>So too with Twitter. Regardless of whether one believes Musk’s motivations to be on the side of the angels, privatizing Twitter will not attenuate market signals but intensify them. Investors in Tesla, whether or not a margin loan is in play, can lean on Musk to make changes to the platform that meet their needs and desires. The same goes for his equity investors. One of them, hypothetically of course, may be a billionaire 2020 election denier that would seek to amplify certain voices over others.

>The fatal flaw in Musk’s vision of Twitter as public square is in his acquisition. The beauty of the square lies in it belonging to no-one and everyone. Twitter as a publicly traded company falls short of that ideal, to be sure, but concentrating ownership moves it further still.

The Imposter -- don't look it up, don't question it, don't ask anyone about it. Just go watch it, sight unseen.

The idea is you do receive the amount you pay in taxes back in the form of services rendered.

Zero FX. Get one! Won’t be disappointed.

"The problem is, there is little that Nashville can offer if it wants to hold the line on issuing tax-exempt financing for the facilities; in this case, the problem suggests the answer. If Tennessee wants a fair shake at competing to sustainably and equitably play host to the next MLB expansion team, every effort should be made to support bills like the No Tax Subsidies for Stadiums Act of 2022, introduced in the House in February."

Whether or not you will eventually win the case will have little bearing on how your day goes that day. If everyone tried just hanging around a school and asserting their rights to do so the number of folks that would be the rightest person in the morgue would not be 0.
