					<description><![CDATA[Where does one go to find out what Schultz proposes by way of policies?  I mean aside from paying $25 for his book?  Or is this potential run only an attempt to hike book sales?  That&#039;s true entrepreneurial spirit!]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[&quot;Elizabeth Warren, has endorsed a tax of 2 percent on assets above $50 million and 3 percent on assets above $1 billion. &quot;

So how does that work?  Suppose your assets total $100 million. Tax 2 percent, that leaves you with $98 million - still way above the $50 million threshhold.  When do they stop the tax?  Do they keep taking money away until you&#039;re down to $50 million?  Suppose you gain assets - or lose assets.  How do they tax that?  Do you get a refund if you lose assets?  My guess is no.  What is the difference between gaining and losing assets, and just plain income, or loss?]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Geoffrey - &quot;Imagine you connect the dots; it&#039;s easy if your tryyyyy....&quot;

https://freebeacon.com/columns/the-democrats-lose-their-minds/
&lt;blockquote&gt;

But Schultz is also a democratic capitalist who attributes his phenomenal success—his fortune from Starbucks is around $3 billion—at least in part to America&#039;s culture of entrepreneurial risk-taking, minimal government interference in commerce, individual responsibility, and rule of law.&lt;b&gt; He worries that the Democratic Party, radicalized by the presidency of Donald Trump, is in the process of abandoning support for the very aspects of American life that made his life possible.&lt;/b&gt;
...
Harris&#039;s rival, Elizabeth Warren, has endorsed a tax of 2 percent on assets above $50 million and 3 percent on assets above $1 billion. Now, Warren would like to raise taxes on incomes, capital gains, dividends, and corporations, too. 
...
Presumably, then, Gates and Buffet are safe, existentially speaking. But the &quot;system&quot; of relatively free enterprise that allowed them to grow rich—and finance or innovate remarkable advances in technology and productivity that have benefited the world—should be altered drastically. Hence AOC&#039;s call for a 70-percent marginal tax rate—backed by the same genius from Berkeley who designed Warren&#039;s expropriation of wealth. &lt;/blockquote&gt;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[@Lynn Hargrove:&lt;i&gt;That would force the EC in such state to then vote for Trump even though their state voted for Harris. Would heads explode then??&lt;/i&gt;

It would never happen.  There is no Constitutional way to bind Electors.  There are laws that can punish them after the fact for voting wrong, but they don&#039;t change the vote.

In the scenario you describe, the Colorado electors would have no qualms whatever about breaking their state law.  The EC votes would count against Trump, and the electors would never be prosecuted for being faithless electors, and if they were no jury would convict.]]></description>
