    Ditto with my Michigan phone number but Illinois residence. I got a phone call once from whoever it was that was the D nominee for Michigan governor after Granholm (they had my info from when I supported Granholm's reelection). I mentioned I moved out of state due to employment and the gal was apologetic and said she'd make sure I was off their lists and thanked me for the prior support. Haven't heard a peep since.

    The Illinois calls were fun. Got hounded by a GOP representative office in 2014 or so. Finally answered one day and I politely asked the kid to take a good hard look at his Caller ID for who he dialed. Asked him to tell me where the 906 area code was in the State of Illinois. After a moment of silence the kid goes "ummm, it's not?" "Correct. Congratulations, your campaign dialed a Michigan phone number. You might want to have someone check their database."

    Never heard from them after that either.


    Last fun political call I got was summer of 2016. Was one of the polling places calling from a 202 DC area code. I spent the time to actually answer their questions pretty fairly. She went through the usual questions, then got to the favorable/unfavorable for each candidate at the time (it was before the conventions). When she asked "Do you think favorably or unfavorably of Donald Trump?" I blurted out "Oh fu** no!" She stifled her giggles and shyly said "I apologize, can you answer with unfavorable then please? I can't actually document your previous answer."

      I wasnt insulting you...just pointing out you were definitely going after Bernie in a trolling like manner. I gut laughed at "Maple Syrup Jesus"

        Its moving TOO Williams? I mean that is somewhat impressive, though not really especially since this was a Bernie state in 2016. (he was at the Rivercenter in St. Paul in 2016) The fact it was originally at Northrup is rather weird.

          Yahoo reports it would take a 42% sales tax to pay for M4A.

          Not buying it.

            Fair enough. I think it's less him I hate and more of his fanbase. Like most people and God.

            I should probably check that at the door, but sometimes it's hard.

                Anyone who advocates paying for entitlements with a flat tax or sales tax can automatically be ignored. They are pushing an agenda from the plutes.

                  The author of that wasted virtual ink article.

                  Sounds like it's the new scare tactic the GOP and 1% will use to torpedo M4A.

                    Well, if you read the article, sounds like some conservative "concerned citizens."

                    Okay, that won’t do it. So what will? CRFB outlined a variety of options. A 42% national sales tax (known as a valued-added tax) would generate about $3 trillion in revenue. But it would destroy the consumer spending that’s the backbone of the U.S. economy. A tax of that magnitude would be like 42% inflation, wrecking consumer budgets and the many companies that depend on them, from Walmart and Amazon to your local car dealer.

                      That's precisely what this is. It's like saying you are going to pay for a house on a credit card. "DO YOU REALIZE YOU DON'T HAVE THE CREDIT LIMIT FOR THIS?! THE PAYMENTS WILL BE INSANE AT 15% APR!!!!"

                      Well, duh.

                        Warren maybe, though that hasn't really been confirmed.

                          They're talking about healthcare costs beginning from scratch to fund MFA. Not even considering the vast amounts of money already spent on healthcare costs.
