re: ICE has begun mass inspections of tractor trailers at state borders

Kind of related: Has anyone noticed the trains of used vehicles being towed by hispanics across the country on I-10 has slowed to a trickle? I haven’t seen any lately. They must be laying low to avoid ICE.
More winning!

Don’t need a study. How about Led Zeppelin, Lynrd Skynrd, and others at the PMAC in the late 70s? Other big names in the 80s. Was NO around back then? Some stupid administrators and stupid politicians shut down BR as a destination for top bands.
re: For the 3rd year in a row, Louisiana leads the country in….sales tax

Sales tax is the worst kind of taxation. We need to trade sakes tax for the more stable property tax, but yall have a fascination with a high exemption and absurdly uneven assessments.
You are mistaken and ignorant. Sales taxes are the only form of taxes that are not progressive and are the same for everyone. If you consume, you pay tax. If you do not consume you do not pay tax.
Every other form of tax is progressive and disproportionately affects certain people more than others. The more successful one is, the more they are penalized with taxes. This tends to retard the incentive for hard work and creativity.
If it wasn’t for sales taxes, half of the population wouldn’t pay any taxes at all. This includes all of the people who live off of the bloated US welfare system.
I would be in favor of a straight across the board sales tax at a higher rate and get rid of all other forms of taxation. Rich people who spend and consume a lot would pay higher taxes. Rich people who are frugal and do not consume would not pay as much. Less well off people who do not have much to spend would not pay much in tax.
Not to mention that this would greatly simplify the tax code and eliminate all the loop holes where the super rich pay very little in taxes due to gaming the system.

I agree, but to counter there was only 1 out and he couldn’t run on first contact if it was a line drive that was caught to avoid a potential double play.
No. Look at the runner’s lead on 2B. He would have scored easily if only this lead.
The fielder double clutched and still threw him out. I wondered out loud about that last night and now know why.
