    Inflation? What Inflation - LOL

    This is what I have a problem with: “The average income tax rate in 2021 was 14.9 percent. The top 1 percent of taxpayers paid a 25.9 percent average rate, nearly eight times higher than the 3.3 percent average rate paid by the bottom half of taxpayers.” I will never understand the concept of...

    Inflation? What Inflation - LOL

    I understand the point, but I also consider the impact of double taxation on the same money and other government grabs. So, Apple paid $16B, every employee paid taxes on income (including bonuses), Apple paid payroll taxes, a crap ton of money was paid into Medicare, dividends were taxed, gains...

    Inflation? What Inflation - LOL

    I’d support a 15% flat tax across the board, no deductions, all day long!! Personally, that would equate to a huge raise for me.

    Inflation? What Inflation - LOL

    I can assure you it’s not. We are quite aware of what S1-S3’s make and I know that pay is competitive…especially with full family health benefits added in, vehicle allowance, etc. We recruit from all over the country and perform work in 42 states and 8 other countries, so we have a pretty good...

    Inflation? What Inflation - LOL

    I’d love to see the actual support for that claim. Apple paid something like $16B in income taxes in 2023. I’m not sure how that is virtually nothing. I know what my company pays in taxes and it certainly isn’t a small number.

    Inflation? What Inflation - LOL

    $120K is almost twice what I made my first year as a lawyer, but I get that was a hot minute ago. It’s a damn good wage for someone with no education and a few years of experience, especially if you are single. And if you are willing to travel, the subsistence rates are pretty crazy (last I...

    I see superintendents making $120K-$250K a year. Personally, I consider that a high wage.

    Inflation? What Inflation - LOL

    Multiple things can be true at the same time, including both good and bad aspects of a given economy. It is true that the price of many things seems abnormally high with no reprieve in sight. It is also true that unemployment is low and in many sectors of the economy people are receiving wages...

    Guided mule deer in Montana. After that my preference would be to get a nice elk every other year for meat.

    I saw it immediately too, but didn’t want to seem racist if I pointed it out. ;)

    Frame breaks?

    When people ask me, I say it’s a Wrangler with a big ass that holds more shit. My Gladiator is NOT a tow vehicle for anything of even relatively moderate weight. Buy a truck if you want a truck.

    I also priced a “Final Edition” and laughed out loud at the result. 💰💰💰💰

    NO MORE Half Doors??

    That’s crazy! I built a 392 for fun a week or two ago and the half doors were still there. Now they aren’t. That sucks.

    I’ve never owned one of the Amazon knock offs so I can’t compare, but so far I’ve been very happy with the 67 Designs quality and fit. I get it is very expensive compared to some alternatives, but I’m willing to pay for American made quality when I can. I did have to replace the rubber for the...
