So people should make $0 instead of $15? Which is what happens when their job goes away in your scenario.

The very rich are generally business owners and their income is via capital gains. Capital gains state tax is based on your primary residence only.

The wealthy own multiple homes. They can have a NYC address and just live there less than 182 days and avoid NYS and NYC income taxes.

They dont have new millionaires moving in. They HAD new millionaires being MADE, because silicon valley had a shit ton of IPOs before the bubble crashed, and lots of people become millionaires thru their options. A large portion of those newly minted milionaires left. And silicon valley isnt going to minting many millionaires the next few years.

Lmao democrats support this even more than republicans.
Sorry progressives, we tried it your way, and it was a huge failure, that got countless people hurt and murdered. Time to give control of the party back to the sane democrats.

That’s why I roll my eyes when bright eyed idealistic young people come here and argue that if taxes were slightly higher, and we just soaked the rich, all our problems will be solved.
When it actuality any excess tax revenue will be wasted similiar to this story.

NIMBYism and making things harder for developers is the exact opposite of what we need during a record housing shortage.

I loved the series throughout the entire run, but the power creep was pretty hilarious.
They kill literal death, and eventually they kill the actual omniscient omnipresent God, despite having no actual powers.
Puts DBZ to shame.

What incentive do government employees have? They cant be fired for performing badly, and can’t be rewarded much for performing well. If they spend too much money, they just ask for more money (as opposed to a private company where your execs get fired when expenses get out of hand).

If consultants are 10-20s% of the costs, but budgets overrun by 4x, basic math would tell us there are other, bigger issues.

It compares charter school performance to public school, and does it on a like-for-like basis (e.g., race, poverty, disability), including a break down for each.
I’m assuming you didn’t both to read it?

As much as I love paywalled NY Daily News articles from 2013, actual academic research has found them to be effective:

Charter schools absolutely should be able to reject students, that’s the whole point.
Disruptive student ruin education for everyone else.
Richer people move to richer suburbs to go to public schools where most parents are engaged parents and therefore the kids are well behaved. They then get a quality education.
Poorer kids don’t have this choice. They go to school surrounded by violent and disruptive students that make it impossible for them learn (I know this first hand from my childhood).
Charter schools provide a way for kids who actually want to learn to be in an environment where they can learn.
Public schools in nyc have been shit fot 40-50 years, and getting worse, despite spending more money than anywhere else in the USA. At this point it’s irrational to think they’ll get any better.
Poor kids who want to learn deserve an opportunity to learn. They shouldn’t be pawns of rich white people who whine “won’t someone think of the disruptive and violent students”. Send them to your rich schools in the suburbs if you care about them so much.

If you had decent public schools, this wouldn’t be necessary.
People will criticize charter schools because they kick out misbehaving students.
But why is this a bad thing: upper middle class people do the same thing to get away from misbehaving students - by moving to rich suburbs. No one really is mad about that. And in fact most of the anti-charter school liberals in this sub-Reddit will do exactly that when they have kids, instead of putting them in a local nyc school.
Poor people can’t move to WestChester very easily, so giving them a chance by going to a charter school doesn’t feel very wrong. Just because you’re poor, doesn’t mean your son or daughter needs to be surrounded by disrupting and violent student. They have a right to learn too. Charter schools provide this access.

Cool now keep reading where they explain how Capex flows through to depreciation and impacts the income statement, like I said three posts ago.

Capex is deducted through depreciation of the Capex each year.

What are you talking about? Capex absolutely is deducted from net profits. Are you mixing up net margin or EBITDA from net income?
