Quote Of The Day

From John Hawkins:

“Preference falsification eventually leads to a preference cascade, and the worse the falsification, the more unapologetic the correction.”

Put another way:  build lies upon lies, and when the final straw comes, the back-breaking will be catastrophic (for the liars).

Quote Of The Day

Whiny little Commie bitch TV interviewer:  “So just bottom line, Mr. Secretary, do you acknowledge that these tariffs are a tax on American consumers?”

SecTreas Scott Bessent:  “No, I don’t.  You’re quoting Goldman Sachs… I made a good career of trading against Goldman Sachs.”

Quote Of The Day

From the statuesque Bryony Gordon at the Daily Mail, talking about padel:

“The game has always struck me as tennis for those who can’t be bothered to learn tennis, but given our dwindling attention spans, it’s probably the perfect sport for our age.”

I always thought it was a cross between tennis (court and scoring system ), squash (playing off the walls) and table tennis (the bats).

It’s also gentler, takes up less space, and doesn’t require as much exertion as tennis or squash.  It really is the perfect non-sport for our silly age — which means it’s soon going to become an Olympic event.  (#SynchronizedSwimming)

“yeah, but why do you call Bryony Gordon ‘statuesque’, Kim?”

Quote Of The Day

“Losing two experienced officials will make it even harder for the IRS to administer and enforce the tax code.”Caroline Ciraolo (ex-somebody at the IRS)

Good.  No, excellent.

Now all we have to do to help these pore IRS souls is simplify the tax code — e.g. flat tax of 8% on gross earnings, no brackets, no exemptions and no deductions for individuals;  and 1% corporate rate on gross sales, no deductions.
