Ad Virtutem Veritatis

This Labor Day look at the imbalance under the latest tax law between the wealthy and those who labor for their income. A couple who work to earn $100k will pay nearly 17% of their income to the Federal Government. A couple who receive $100k in dividends pay absolutely nothing. Somehow the Republicans think this is something to be proud of.

The big orange toddler in the white house couldn’t keep pace with the rate of job creation Obama/Biden had once they brought the economy out of the Great Recession. Now Trump’s incompetent response to the pandemic has made him the president with the worst job losses ever recorded in American history.

Again this reflects if you invested $10,000 of your 401K in an S&P 500 index fund on inauguration day this is how it performed under the previous two presidents and the incumbent. (Based on monthly data.)

More relative performance data.

There is a lot of misinformation and outright lies floating about. Much of it is even spread through nationally known figures and “news” outlets. This Tumblr will be an attempt to correct some of that misinformation and of course share anything I think is interesting or just makes me smile.
