Given the clear prejudice of the moderator, did Hillary know the questions in advance?

The DNC pretty much orchestrated the whole debate from soup to nuts.

Covered in Chapter 23 of 'What Do Losers Tell Themselves".

(I didn't mention Trump's numerous extramarital affairs and busted marriages, out of concern for Chelsea being in the audience. I'd like some credit for that.)

Of course I know this. I assumed it was implied in what I said

Your language implied the opposite. You might just say that your marginal tax rate is such that you don't find it worth your time to work overtime, and that you would work more if your tax rate was lower. errc says

How many of Trumps businesses, has Donald Trump taken from the U.S., and moved overseas, to avoid Environmental rega, use cheaper labor, and avoid taxes?

How many of Clintons?

I don't know of any for Trump, but off the top of my head, I remember a big one of the Clintons. Burger King.

The Clintons don't own Burger King, so I have no idea what you are going with that. Trump probably makes all of this products other than food outside of the US. Where do you think his clothing lines are made? Since he can't move his service industry outside of the US, he is sure to import workers with H1bs and claim that his golf courses are farms when filing his taxes.

errc says

I do. I've regularly turned down overtime, because it throws my wages into a higher tax bracket, and my time is far too valuable to spend it paying more taxes.

Yeah, having to pay 28% federal on the money earned in hours 41-50 is so much worse than the 25% paid on wages earned in hours 20-40.

Plus, it's not like you could take more vacations and bring that top marginal rate back down to 25% while working less over all.

Why not quit after earning the standard deduction each year. That way you can pay zero taxes - you'll have a shit eating grin on your face as you use all that tax-funded infrastructure you're not paying for.

Creepy

he won't show us. Logic tells us that there is something he is hiding.

And the emails?

errc says

In fact, i base almost all of my decisions by considering the tax implications. That's what smart people do: avoid waste. As a hard working, freedom loving American, I cannot afford to be wasteful.

Which is of course why you claim you supported Bernie. Oh, hang on. And I have to say your objective comment was very amusing given your rabid anti-Hillary comments on here.
As for Trump being smart avoiding paying any taxes, I'd say that would be his accountants, though it was typically dumb phrasing from him. How about he comment on the system being flawed, and the wealthiest having an obligation to pay their fair share rather than tax dodging, etc., etc.?

The Clintons don't own Burger King, so I have no idea what you are going with that.

Why do you feel the need to lie?

Burger King is owned by its shareholders, one of which is Hillary Clinton

Fact

The crowd was laughing at Trump and with Hillary last night. She seemed to be enjoying it.

I could have hugged Holt when he shot Trump's stop and frisk BS down.

In the end, not many minds will have been changed. Check out the #TrumpWon twitter hashtag. It's pretty funny. Have a good day all.

Ciao!

Jesus Christ. By that standard, I own 1/3 of publicly traded businesses. It's probably that Trump does too. I see Trump has taught you how to tie all negative events of the last 30 yrs to HRC through the customarily allowed 6 degrees of separation.

turtledove is deplorable says

And the emails?

Most of the emails have been turned over. Of the extra that have been found (probably most of whatever existed in the first place), most have been duplicates, and those are getting released anyway.

Meanwhile, the Clinton's have turned over tons of tax returns and Trump hasn't turned over any. He's trying to distract you with door B, when asked about door A. The whole reason for his 'I'll show you mine if you show me yours deal' is just a way to bring up B when asked about A. He dodges more questions than Picaso has paints. The only thing he dodges better than questions is TAXES.

CNN and FOX news said Trump lost debates with Rubio then Kasich, then Cruz.

You surely must be jesting. Telling your employee to bleach bit emails, clearly showing intent, is a criminal offense, esp. since you know the emails will have to be turned over and investigated. So is deleting these emails (evidence) in the first place. You know she belongs in prison, but since Trump is such a "bad" candidate for you, you choose to support a criminal that is above the law. If you had emails the FBI let you know it wants and you bleach bit them or destroy the evidence otherwise, your ass goes to prison faster than you can say blueberry pie. At least write in Mickey Mouse or vote for one of the other candidates on the ballot, don't need to vote for Trump necessarily.

Of course not, you retard, that's why he looked as dumb as you do.

Using bleachbit was not an offense if all of the work emails were handed over. The offense was in omitting some or classifying them incorrectly. I don't know if it was a judgement error or what. Maybe the FBI classified some of them as work related when HRC thought that they were Clinton Foundation related. In any case, she admitted she was wrong and is getting judged for it. Trump, you, and TD seem to think that that gives Trump a get out of jail free card when it comes to his taxes. It doesn't, and he still looks like an asshole who is hiding something.

If you are into equivocating, we might as well say that as long as Trump keeps his taxes private, we have to give HRC a pass on emailgate. Do you see how stupid that game is?

YesYNot says

Using bleachbit was not an offense if all of the work emails were handed over.

And who has the authority to determine which are "work" and which are "personal?" Surely it isn't the person who potentially has something to hide? We don't typically trust the suspects to hand over all the evidence. But we did, here. Further, I disagree that she even had personal emails. IMHO, the emails became property of the State Department the minute she sent them from her work email. So, again... laws are being conveniently reinterpreted to her benefit.

The fact is that a business man has to please his customers or they don't buy from him. The more customers he has the more benefit he is doing for the community.

It was actually very effective, fuck the moderator.

I recoil at the police having that much power but it was effective. Might consider it to be a Marshall law situation though.

turtledove is deplorable says

Nice job staying focused on door B. It's very shiny and it might be fun to polish it some more, but I take that as tacit admission that there's a bombshell behind door A. And by bombshell, I'm not talking about a hot young Miss Universe who FB is busy degrading.

We choose plenty of inefficient things, and insecure things, to preserve civil liberties and freedoms.

I'm sure Trump would love Marshall law. He would probably paint it as a path to restoring black communities to their former heights.

Fixed it for ya mr. intelligence...

Sharingmyintelligencewiththedumbasses says

trump can't answer a simple question, so more followups is are appropriate.

I think Hillary blew her wad. 1970s lawsuit. Tax returns. Sexism. Birtherism. That's it.

He held back on Email, Benghazi (her ONLY legacy), Clinton Foundation and, Bill's exploits.

Clinton Foundation

Considering the good that it has done in comparison to the laughable Trump version, he'd be better served avoiding that topic.

He's not running.

Like those haven't been flogged to death.

Hillary has proven her mastery of all the subjets talked about. And her smile was like glistening stones awaiting purchase at nor strum. Can't you come to our side and winny?

Look at the pictures of her at the debate. What do you think that thing is attached to the front of her tunic? Apparently, you don't understand that she was wearing a mic. Donald was wearing one as well. Guess what those mics were attached to. Honestly, why not give things a bit of thought before you post them up?

If you had bothered to watch the debates you should have noticed that the microphone was right in front of them.

And it turns out they keep finding thousands of emails as the weeks go by.

And her IT guy going to reddit asking how to change the to/from addresses on an email server, and despite being warning it's illegal, persists but finds no answers. "Very VIP!"

DieBankOfAmericaPhukkingDie says

In this picture IHLlary is begging to SUCK! TRUMPLIGULA!'s DICK! and he is, of course, saying NO! WUCKING! FAY! SWAMPSOW!

"It's just too fucking (wucking?) yuge for you, really, really yuge. Really"

Is Trump going to lead off the next debate by bitch slapping Lester Holt?

How many bets in the next debate that Lester Holt, his lapel mussed by Trumpligula's grabbing him, his face peppered red with Trump's tiny handprints, will ass fuck him with IHLlary leading questions, anyway?

I do. I've regularly turned down overtime, because it throws my wages into a higher tax bracket, and my time is far too valuable to spend it paying more taxes.

I don't know if you know this, but it doesn't throw your other wages into a higher tax bracket. When you get into a higher marginal tax bracket, only the additional income is taxed at the higher rate. So, if you are getting paid time and a half for overtime, your reasoning is not correct. If you are only offered your normal pay, and you value your free time more than your after tax income, so be it. Most people who are getting paid hourly, are not in a high tax bracket, so this argument would not make any sense for most people.

Anyway, the decision of when to work and not work is pretty routine and normal. There are plenty of very sleazy things that people can do to lower their taxes...

I'm listening to the jagoffs on CNN radio try and find more ways to be critical of Trump.

In sn attempt to attack him for his taxes, they said that he likely didn't make any "charitable " contributions, which is what people with incomes do in order to reduce their tax burden

These establishment dolts are burying themselves in attempt to attack Trump. This bonehead just insisted that the whole scam that is "charity" in this country is basically just a giant tax dodge.

It also reminded me of my neighbors. Very nice people, very successful business person. They bought their dream property next door for 1.3$ million. They leave for over six months a year to Florida, solely for tax implications. Here are smart, succesful, HONEST Americans, who leave their dream home empty for over half the year, and move 1200+ miles away, just to a oid paying taxes.

errc says

Uhhhh, newsflash. They may like that they don't pay state taxes in Florida, and they may even see it as helping to pay the cost of their having a winter place in Florida, but you've gotta know that's not the close to the sole reason they spend the winter in Florida.

Where's the news flash? You're arguing my point. No wonder you got all mad sbout me having a high IQ, and it #triggered you to put me on Ignore. Then you had to make an alias so you could read my comments and reply to them.

You and Dan are some wierdos

Rashomon says

Thought is not his strong suit.

errc says

You sound like Trump. You think everything is about you. When I had an alias, it was because for a while there I was being cautious about posting from work. I still don't do it much. Funny that you think it was about you. When I put you on ignore for a while it was becasue of a combination of things, the part about the 150 IQ was mostly amusing, especially when you juxtapose it to so many of the insanely stupid things you say. (such as your comment today about not wanting your pay to go into the next tax bracket, LOL)

I'm thinking maybe you like Trump becasue you are like him. One of my favorite parts of the debate last night was when Trump went in to a long spiel about how NATO is only just now starting (FOR THE FIRST TIME) to be willing to address terrorism. And Trump takes credit for it. IT's becasue of him and his criticism of NATO (he thinks) THen a couple minutes later Hillary talks about NATOs commitment to fighting terrorism with us after 9/11. THe look on Trumps face was priceless.
