re: Let's end dual citizenship

American company in that country. They have a child, born in that country, The child sure as hell can be a dual citizen, and for you to say otherwise .
lol.
The child belongs to the parent.
When it grows up and decides where it wants to pay its taxes, it can determine citizenship.
Same for the parents- if they want American benefits, better file income taxes here. Otherwise, file taxes in another country. I don’t care.
As a “dual citizen”, they ought to have to file taxes in each country they claim citizenry to.
I’m fine with that
That’s not what happens though. There’s people over here all mad because trump won and trying to have their cake and eat it too with dual citizenship like it makes any difference.
And when it’s time to get their Medicare and social security oh you bet they got their hands out…

Yep
Watch the mark halperin podcast though. He exposes them. These people were at events where Biden appeared lost, mumbled, and otherwise showed some evidence of ineptitude. And they didn’t say squat. They covered it up!

Plaintiff attorneys are killing this state
We need reform to our liability legal environment.
The plaintiff attorneys have already killed the insurance environment and they’ll kill energy and any other industries that they can get their hooks into.
We have to rein them in.

re: Are you okay with Trump increasing the deficit?

I don’t believe that trump will cut the debt but he might cut the deficit
Frankly, I never thought trump was ever much of a fiscal conservative

f you Italian and can establish your heritage back to the relative who immigrated off the boat, then you can establish as an Italian Citizen. You can then move about through all of the EU countries without any hassle
And what would be the point? It’s always a hassle to travel in Europe and dual citizenship doesn’t do much.
If you have business in Europe, it could be helpful since you’d travel there a lot. Otherwise, it’s nonsense.
You can’t be a dual citizen. You are either this or that. Not both.
Also, there was rumor years ago that Italy was trying to lure in wealthy Americans with this non sense and then they were going to hit them with a tax for not just earnings in Italy but in the US too. Talk about a double tax!
It hasn’t happened but there was talk about it.
re: Just learned something new. Per Mark Levin, neocon = Jew.
Posted by SlidellCajun on 5/15/25 at 7:39 am
Neocons pervert conservatives.
They take the pro military or pro defense to mean that we will always contribute to a war or fight. The neocons use the military to national build. They use it to feed the industrial military complex. Often it mean Israel is involved so yeah, there’s a Jewish aspect to it.
Really though, it’s simple- they want us to use our military to feed the machine ie military industrial complex.

Seen them recently and they’re one of my favorite bands of all time. Big in the 90’s but got drowned by the grunge scene.
They’re true musicians. Great live band imo.

re: Black fatigue and a new call for trillions in reparations
Posted by SlidellCajun on 5/14/25 at 7:51 pm
Once a person believes that they’re entitled to reparations from their government, they’re irretrievable.
They will be a continual thorn in the side. They will undermine their own efforts because they feel entitled. They will disobey laws because they believe they are entitled.
They will become a leach on society asking for free stuff because they feel entitled.
They will serve to undermine civility at every turn and lead a generally unproductive life.
Politicians who feed this mentality are weak and lazy. It’s low hanging fruit. Luckily, these types of people are low frequency voters

This is the kind of stuff done by plaintiff attorneys to tarnish the insurance industry
Insurance is for profit. It’s not some socialist scheme.
Louisiana has too few carriers willing to do business here. This is part of the reason. They get tarnished. The legal environment is bad. We have massive hurricanes.
It’s a tough place to make a buck in the insurance business.
We all suffer with high prices.
How to fix that? Attract more carriers. Create a vibrant market. A thiriving market creates a competetive environment that benefits the consumer.
What does Louisiana need less of? Plaintiff attorneys. How do we do that? Tort reform.
But our governor is in bed with plaintiff attorneys. It’s perverted because he calls himself a Republican. Bs. He’s a politician and wants to get elected.

CPI increased 2.3% in April.
The cpi reflects a rate of inflation for consumer items

Pretty big news today
April cpi came in at an increase of only 2.3% over April 2024. This is below forecast of 2.4%. This is the lowest increase since Feb 2021.
One month does not make a trend but it’s good to see some cooling in price increases and no big surprises from tariffs.
