@lemmy.worldOn a post about Trump saying that Haitians are taking other people's pets and eating them, you said:
Millions of dogs and cats are eaten around the world yearly.
This is a fact, and we can come to certain conclusions.
You can't blame people from thinking that you are inferring that Trump is telling the truth.
But we've come to the conclusion now that Trump is indeed lying and Haitians aren't stealing people's pets and eating them. Has it ever happened anywhere? Very possible. Is it currently happening in Springfield? No.
To expand your analogy to the house on how the rich used their unrealised gains.
You buy a house and it appreciates in value. You bowwow money against the capital gains and use that to live on. Your house price goes up further, generating more capital gains that you can now bowwow against to pay back your previous loan.
edit: also since you're so filthy rich the banks give you really low interest rates, way less than tax would have been.
Yepp, at some point at some time someone in USA has eaten a dog or a cat. But do Haitians regularly steal other people's pets and eat them? Very unlikely.
If I were to speculate...
Therefore immigrants are regularly stealing other people's pets and are eating them.
We can extrapolate this with anything.
I think ww can draw our own conclusion about this one...
The constitution was made to be amended to adapt with the times. Time to amend the 2nd amendment and require a valid reason such as hunting for having a firearm.
What you observes could be OS depended,. Vim has its own copy paste buffers (y,p etc) and the OS has its own. Traditionally highligh to copy and middle mouse button to paste on Unix. Windows has 2 methods, ctrl-c,v but those are also bindings in vim so only the older less known crtl-insert,shirt-insert works.
Copy paste is definitely built in, there is no need for extra plugins.
You mean you couldn't copy some text from vim and paste it into another application? if yes, what did you have to install/configure for that? I've never had any issues copy paste from/to vim, console/GUI windows/Unix.
As far as I understood the article, it is taxing unrealised capital gains, but you have to be very rich and have a substantial portion of your wealth in unrealised capital gains. It feels targeted as people like Elon Musk.
