The government is supposed to start its own construction and tunnel digging companies, duh. Then there would be no corruption or greed.

Not to worry, Trump's plan is to have toll roads everywhere that you'll have to pay every day for the rest of your life, and the profits go directly to private businesses.

LOL
worried about us paying for roads forever
has no idea how much we already pay......or that we already pay for roads every single time we fill up our vehicles with gas

Only the Fed can collect money from various employment taxes, holds this money, and then later when it's spent - it's accounted as a cost or w/e. My point being that this asset now (liability later) is money no business could have access to or account for. And since it has to balance out neeways, why include the asset or liability?
Then we can compare aspects of the gov't budget on the same terms as we could evaluate any normal business - the ones in the private sector.

Needless to say, it went up quick!

NT was a strange situation - TDSB selling lands off and instead of taking the money and building a new school, they got Tridel to do it at the same time they were building their own
and yeah it went up fast but at the expense of everyone living around it - i had friends living in the surrounding buildings and they practically went nuts from the late night/early morning construction. it seemed to go on 24 hours a day at times
one guy i know used the construction to break his lease early - he had to move away, couldn't stand it anymore

That's weird. The hours were normal. Maybe I'm remembering wrong or something.. who knows.
I think TDSB made a pretty good decision. They sold .7 acres for $23M and then paid Tridel something like $5M to build the actual school. I think their total project cost was around $14M... so they made money and got a nice new school out of the deal.

^ itt trifecta of toronto turd
So the raise for the military is just about the same as paying the wages of the entire US policing force for a year.
I think would say "fascinating."
I think you should say "Thank you US Armed Forces for protecting me and my family."

The argument in this thread are foolish, especially when it comes to "Capitalist make jobs so tax them less." Is that why they don't want to pay $15 an hour and are replacing people with robots so they can make 30 billion a year instead of 29 billion. Ridiculous...

all of this is dishonest as fuk
Bill Gates wants to tax robots, but one robot maker says that's 'as intelligent' as taxing software
i mean does bill gates want to tax himself?
or anything that makes our life simpler
i don't get it...neither does he
perhaps he can create another foundation to skirt his money to so he can reduce his personal tax liability
give his kids something to make a lot of money pretending to be attached to

we shouldn't be taxing businesses imo
buisnesses are not people regardless of citizens united ruling
and we should be encouraging jobs being created in America
not punishing employment and those that employ others

So, you'd have to make up for all the taxes you'd lose by raising taxes on the middle and upper classes. Not really hurting the upper class, but driving the middle class back creating an almost Feudal like system where the kings of business basically own everything and everyone. Actually, kind of sounds socialist...

it sure could if the rich continue to get out of their tax responsibility
they somehow figure out more loopholes and dodges
pay a lower % than the middle class does
When I run my numbers I pay more than all of these ****tards
sure not in their league either
