[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Anything is better than Ballou. 100 percent of last year's senior class were admitted to college but only 66% of the class met graduation requirements but were pushed through for the optics.

So don’t hire them what do you care [/quote]

I'd rather not pay for them as I have been paying for them and their moms. Welfare it's a thing [/quote]

States with no income tax:

•	Alaska.
•	Florida.
•	Nevada.
•	South Dakota.
•	Texas.
•	Washington.
•	Wyoming.

Freedom to take your ass somewhere else if you don't like the District - its a thing.

I am not the PP, but Wyoming would be a fantastic place for some of these apprentices. They are literally begging for workers there. I've often wondered why the urban underemployed don't head out to the great West.[/quote]

These days the great West is Asia.

And I agree, non-taxpayers should go and start a new life there, better for everyone.[/quote]

would those non-tax payers include the corporations that receive million dollar tax abatements at the expense of the middle class?[/quote]

If they pay no taxes, sure.

But be careful what you ask for -- even a struggling company like GE pays more income tax that the bottom 40% Americans combined.[/quote]

yeah, i remember when GE paid $0 on $108 billion because the money was parked overseas.  That’s definitely more than the bottom 40%.  https://m.huffpost.com/us/entry/2852094[/quote]
