      To be fair, that comparison is stupid. One is past cash flows received over a short period of time and the other represents a decrease in future cash flows into perpetuity from public companies.

      But regardless of the bad comparison, the whole Trump economic plan is a disaster.

            Don't bet on it.

            • Sure, there's other national leaders who are clowns. But can you imagine having to go through his same shtick that he does with every leader in front of reporters and not roll your eyes constantly?

                  I support this one. Avoiding political flags/signage in government facilities and schools is a good idea. Trump flags are off limits too.

                    I don't know what the full details are, but if students aren't allowed to fly pride flags that is a problem.

                      I think it depends on the context. Public officials are not allowed to fly any kind of flags other than state flag, us flag, etc in government offices/settings. A faculty member can have one in his/her office, but you couldn't put one in a classroom for example.

                        • Here is the actual law if anyone is interested:

                          https://le.utah.gov/~2025/bills/static/HB0077.html

                          Strong support (62%) from the public. Spencer Cox likes the intent, but doesn't like this bill. He didn't sign it but let it become law because it was veto-proof.

                            That's seems like a slippery slope. Who gatekeeps what's political? The law was made with the intent of preventing the Pride flag specifically. I think some adjustments were made in the process.

                            The guy sponsored the bill, Trevor Lee is one of those deznat homophobes.

                            There would be an argument to be made that Christian iconography could be political.

                              No problem with that.

                              Edit: BIG problem with that, in terms of the actual language of the statute.

                              • people thinking the pride flag is political is why the pride flag is needed.
                                but im sure making sure no teachers can ever show support for the demographic with highest suidice rates will work great
