https://news.yahoo.com/news/23-nobel...090101266.html 23 Nobel Prize-winning economists call Harris’ economic plan ‘vastly superior’ to Trump’s More than half of the living US recipients of the Nobel Prize for economics signed a letter that called Vice President Kamala Harris’ economic agenda “vastly superior” to the plans laid out by former President Donald Trump. Twenty-three Nobel Prize-winning economists signed onto the letter, including two of the three most recent recipients. “While each of us has different views on the particulars of various economic policies, we believe that, overall, Harris’ economic agenda will improve our nation’s health, investment, sustainability, resilience, employment opportunities, and fairness and be vastly superior to the counterproductive economic agenda of Donald Trump,” the economists write in the letter obtained by CNN.

Re: Presidential Race 2024
Republicans starting the Cheat early...........
https://news.yahoo.com/news/republic...205305267.html Republicans to press ahead in bid to block some overseas ballots WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Republicans on Tuesday vowed to appeal court rulings rejecting their efforts to block some Americans living abroad from voting in North Carolina and Michigan, part of an aggressive legal campaign by the party ahead of the Nov. 5 election. The Republican National Committee had filed lawsuits in the two battleground states, as well as the crucial state of Pennsylvania, challenging what they call illegal overseas voting. On Monday, judges in Michigan and North Carolina said the RNC had no grounds to challenge the states' election statutes, and found the party failed to show it would suffer irreparable harm.

B. What is Harris' economic plan? Noble prizes don't mean a fucking thing. No conservative would ever win one of those. A noble prize is essentially an award given to the liberal who makes other liberals the happiest that year. If I'm wrong, please let me know the last year a conservative won that "prize" for economics. Is she actually going to lower the taxes even lower than Trump did? Because I have already shown here that anyone in the middle or lower (outside of basically not paying taxes) is the lowest it has been for at least 30 years. Is she going to lower it even further? Of course not. She, like all democrats, use phrases like "fair share", but never put any actual definitions on it.

A) It has nothing to do with Brett Baier, where did I say it does? B) WOW so you know more about trumps Tax plain then not one World Famous Nobel winner in Economics, no you know more than 23 of them. Do you know what a moron you sound like , did you even READ THE LINK? Hell no becuase you're late night drunk posting again. Admit it, you know nothing. https://www.cnn.com/2024/10/23/polit...lan/index.html The letter is intentionally brief at just 228 words, which reflects both an effort to secure consensus across a broader spectrum of economists and a desire to elevate that consensus with precision, according to a person familiar with the process. The letter was drafted to incorporate feedback from the initial effort. It also marked an effort in the final days of the campaign to elevate what those involved viewed as an acute risk posed by Trump both in his economic proposals, but also, in their view, of the potential instability he would pose in an area where certainty and stability are paramount. The letter points to Trump’s tariff and tax policies as inflationary and likely to balloon the federal deficit – a widely held view among economists. But it also issues a stark warning. “Among the most important determinants of economic success are the rule of law and economic and political certainty, and Trump threatens all of these,” the economists write. Despite the warnings and forecasts from economists across the political spectrum, Trump has been steadfast in his pledge to wield threats of sweeping tariffs as a cornerstone of his economic agenda.

I didn't say anything about Trump's plan. On that note, I do need to read-up more on the exact effects of tariffs. I'm not really for or against them right now. Don't know enough about them to make a decision on them. Not going to vote for Kamala over tariffs though. Also, Biden has kept most of the same tariffs as Trump implemented. Did Kamala say she was going to get rid of all of them? On one hand she keeps trying to say she's the "change" candidate then on the other hand has said she wouldn't do anything different than Biden. So who knows? https://taxfoundation.org/blog/biden-trump-tariffs/ "Accordingly, since they were imposed, the trade war tariffs have raised customs duties collections by around $233 billion through March 2024. Of that $233 billion, just $89 billion was collected during the Trump administration. The remaining $144 billion has been collected during the Biden administration." Lastly, the fact that Paul Krugman has a Nobel Peace Prize says all I need to know about the value of that award. And 23 is not some amazing number. There are hundreds if not thousands of economists in the USA. Not very hard to find 23 mostly, if not all professors (whom hopefully we can admit are predominantly liberal), to sign that.
