Elections Kamala Harris for POTUS

Giving people $25000(the wording is vague) is different than a tax credit.

That's great because I didn't mention or imply anything about a tax credit.

It seems like it's just $25,000 that'll go towards the down payment for first-time homeowners. Can you spell out how that is inflationary?
 
I’ll make an account bet with you that my wife is a Calvin Klein model.

This kind of Calvin Klein model for a wife?

I think crypto is a silly technology and I don't think highly of it but I'm also skeptical of excessively regulating it. Like lab grown meat I think its a dead end technology that will die on its own with no need for government help or hinderance.

Rent control is bad IMO so I don't support that. I agree with you on the first time home buyer subsidy and the expanded child tax credit though. All in all I don't have the highest hopes for Harris based on what I'm hearing(supposedly she's considering price control which is an awful policy) but I hope she can prove me wrong like Biden did.
Yeah that was a two parter that I said I agreed to. Not the price controls but to limiting corporate buyers.

How much do you know about the crypto industry?

Where do you think the money comes from?
 
I'm saying these prosecutions are obviously politically motivated, and its been publicly admitted to.
Been publicly admitted to? So a random journalist on TV who has nothing to do with the case says that in his opinion the case is politically motivated and, to you, this is proof that it's politically motivated?

So just out of curiosity, do you view all random journalist opinions as gospel, or only in this case?

Actually no, that isn't the case when politicians commit crimes.
Actually yes. If Biden was guilty then he was guilty. If the prosecutor decided not to pursue criminal charges for one reason or another that doesn't change the fact.

"While campaigning, Bragg said: "I have investigated Trump and his children and held them accountable for their misconduct with the Trump Foundation. I also sued the Trump administration more than 100 times for the travel ban, the separation of children from their families at the border. So I know that work. I know how to follow the facts and hold people in power accountable."
He also said that he would continue with Vance's investigation and hold Trump "accountable by following the facts where they go."
Holy shit, a criminal prosecutor admitting PUBLICLY that he...prosecuted criminals for criminal behavior, and will continue to do so. You really caught him there.

I'm not even halfway through your post, which you didn't post a single souce to any of your claims, and I destroyed each of your claims with sources.

Going to figure the rest of your post is pure opinion & speculation.
You didn't destroy anything. You have not once even questioned let alone argued against the actual evidence against Trump. All you're interested in doing is trying, and failing, to discredit the people involved with prosecuting him.

That's pretty telling. If you want Trump to be able to get away with his crimes you might as well just come out and say it, because it's obvious from your flailing here.

By the way, I'm sure you know this, but that prosecutor was directly appointed by Biden's own Attorney General Merrick Garland.

Thank you for confirming you're a political hack.

Have a nice day.

Admitting somebody on my side was guilty regardless of politics makes me a political hack, and you saying every criminal case against Trump is illegitimate regardless of evidence makes you...not a political hack? Lol! I'm not sure you understand how this works.

Because it increases demand for housing. The way to make housing affordable is not to subsidize demand but to increase supply.
Yeah that was a two parter that I said I agreed to. Not the price controls but to limiting corporate buyers.
I don't agree with either of those but banning corporate purchases of homes is probably the less bad one only because price control is an F tier economic policy.

I know enough to see that its just a speculative investment asset rather than some groundbreaking technology.

Yeah price controls are a non-starter and will never happen anyway. I am a huge proponent of limiting corporate buying.

This makes me feel like you don’t actually know enough about the technology.

The corporate boogeyman is a scapegoat, the reason we have high home prices is because of excessive regulation that limits supply some of which you support IIRC.

What do you think I'm missing here?

Well, this one does both. If anything, the seemingly more robust parts of the proposal will increase supply.

And in any case, $25k isn't a huge amount. First, it said that it's "up to $25k," suggesting that there are qualifications you have to meet to get the full amount. And it said that it will "target first-generation homebuyers." So the number of potential buyers that'll receive that $25k is probably pretty small.

I'm talking specifically about the subsidy for homebuyers, obviously policies that contribute to increasing supply would be good but often there are political barriers to those policies while the subsidies for homebuyers are more popular and this more likely to pass without issue and that worries me.

To qualify for a FHA loan you need a down payment of 3.5% and so a down payment of $25 nets you a house over $700k. Its substantial if you ask me.
