You point out a lot of interesting stuff but I can not find anything relevant on March 3, 1919 or Kaiser Khan.

Thanks for the links.

I was aware but did not put it to the date.

Khizr Khan did what he thought was right. A lot of grief there still as most Gold Star Families have. I researched him (not going to look it all up again or defend) and became suspicious of his motivation.

Personally, I disapprove what he did and how he did it. I know his grief. I am a Gold Star Son and Veteran but see the world differently.

so a tax increase for the very poor?

It is really very simple, we don't want people to be poor, therefore if the poor are punished they will have a greater incentive to become wealthy.

No moral or ethical person would consider, or even threaten a withdrawal of necessary help.
But since tRump has, we must conclude he is neither moral or ethical.

Would help if failed businessmen like 45 paid their tax bills. 45 is alleged to owe $33 million to Puerto Rico.

Why is the Jones Act still on the books?

The way the tax system is in the US I am surprised that all schoolkids over the age of 11 don't have submit tax returns.

That made me think on the first episode of the "Newsroom" with Jeff Daniels & his comment on why "America is not the greatest country".

Seeing that chart, have to agree with him :-)

But let's reference Real Life tax situations.

https://www.irs.gov/taxtopics/tc551
Certain taxpayers aren't entitled to the standard deduction:
1) A married individual filing as married filing separately whose spouse itemizes deductions
2) An individual who was a nonresident alien or dual status alien during any part of the year (see below for certain exceptions)
3) An individual who files a return for a period of less than 12 months due to a change in his or her annual accounting period
4) An estate or trust, common trust fund, or partnership

Don't blame me, I voted for Johnson(L) in 2016.

Truth is dangerous... especially when it challenges those in power.

According to the Census ACS survey, the median household income for the United States was $55,775 in 2015.

Understanding the problem with averages.

Yes averages are important, IMO the most germaine average is the mode, with the median much less important and in this context the mean is nonsense.
