“That may be how things work at the Darla Moore School of Business … but it’s not how things work in the real world.”

lulz!

$25 million voluntarily thrown down a rat hole though isn’t as bad as taking everyone’s money and pissing it away via failed ventures-whether it be innovista or hydrogen, failed agencies-like the SCDOR or SCDEW or simply spreading it around to your buddies that run bullshit companies providing “services” to the gov’t machine after hiriing some of your corrupt buddies and ridiculous salary’s to mismanage the whole affair.

I’d be happy to listen to the arguments about what constitutes “core gov’t” if gov’t could even do something as basic as maintaining the fucking roads.

Until it can successfully do even the most basic of functions I’ll continue to suggest it go away entirely(even though it never will).

I just imagine the giant sigh of relief this state would have after mercilessly slaying Innovista, or how Columbia would appear if that godforsaken Benji and Friends YouTube video never saw the light of day. Forget the effects of raising/cutting taxes, how about the effect of cutting absolutely pointless ventures that accomplishes nothing more than punching ourselves in the face?

Adjusting the brackets to provide relief for a vast majority of SC citizens should definitely be considered, though. I have my doubts on how big of a ripple such a “boulder” would really cause, though, but that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t do it.

Yeah, I was excited that someone had finally ponied up to have a STAMP-like model designed for SC: http://www.beaconhill.org/STAMP_Web_Brochure/STAMP_EconofSTAMP.html

But instead it’s a “tool” that literally could have been designed by a couple of undergrad students for a computer science class project.

Simple:

1. Legalize drugs,prostitution and allow dog/horse racing tracks in Myrtle Beach and the old track in Darlington and tax ’em all….

2. Eliminate the SC tax code for one of the ones in Tennessee,Florida,Nevada, New Hampshire.

BTW: The Greenville news had an excellent article yesterday about the rise in going back to paper returns this year due to the DOR fuck-up

So which bipartisan dynamic scoring model would you like to utilize? Don’t start with one from Laffer as that is pie-in-the-sky bullshit for the T-party crowd. As soon as you open up the dynamic scoring can of worms you have instantly opened up a conversation that will annoy 50% of the populace who disagree with the chosen scoring model.
