Can you live on minimum wage? (Calculator)

tokeprep said:
When CBO has to make "assumptions that are simply not likely to happen," those assumptions are legislative. For example, CBO had to assume that all of the Bush tax cuts would expire at their legislative sunsets, even though everyone knew that some of those tax cuts would be extended. Their forecasts reflect legislative reality--"The end date of the tax cuts according to public law xxx is x"--not practical reality.

If you want to attack CBO based on its assumptions, that only makes sense when the assumptions reflect legislation they are obligated by law to follow.

i was simply pointing out how NLXSK1 takes different stances on the CBO depending on whether or not he agrees with what they have to say, and then condemns others if they do the same.

the very height of hypocrisy.

If everyone paid their taxes like good little boys and girls, we could pay to subsidise minimum wage workers without raising minimum wage nor more taxes.

only a few more weeks until oregon dispensary law goes through and i can start declaring everything like a good little boy/girl.

anything i sell will have to be tested first, the entire batch gets turned over and if the small sample they take tests bad on any metric, they destroy the whole batch. it's a big risk, but one i will gladly take.

Dispensaries are more forgiving than we would think..Couple puppy-dog hairs in the batch, no bigs - they're looking for frostiness, and density. At least in 209 they are....But, damn, what a racket. I love walking out of the shop with a huge grip of cash, and a tasty new strain to play with.... mmmmm
 
The saying goes "consider the source."

Consider, not a dispositive mental exercise.

Sure, if one has heard something that is unique and it comes from a biased source, that particular information needs to be viewed with skepticism.

However, even a broke clock is right twice a day. And of all the information on biased websites, some of it is valid. The FBI stats on a white separatist website is still data gathered by the FBI. Those numbers are beyond dispute.

Data such as this is hard to find in a source that some here would find acceptable, because any data pointing to any inferiority or negative connotations towards "protected" groups is suppressed in this country.

Just because something that is harmful to my argument comes from a source that is also opposed to my argument or philosophy does not automatically discredit it.

their conclusions included "the police and courts are not biased against minorities" (LOfuckingL) and "you can best predict crime by how many blacks and hispanics are around" (LOfuckingL).

i know that since you are a white supremacist, you are kind of obligated to defend other white supremacists, but if you want to prove that you are retarded by defending such laughable and obviously false conclusions, go ahead. i can use a laugh.

My clock has two broken hands. It is not right twice a day. All of the variables should be considered is my point, so I agree with your premise.

This line makes alot of sense - Just because something that is harmful to my argument comes from a source that is also opposed to my argument or philosophy does not automatically discredit it.
