the CATO Institute.. a libertarian think tank funded by the Koch brothers.. just published a study showing immigrants paid more in taxes than they received in benefits every single year from 1994 to 2023..
not a left-wing university.. not a Democratic PAC.. the Koch brothers' own research institute..
they reduced the deficit by $14.5 trillion over 30 years.. they earn less per hour but work at higher rates.. which means higher per capita income.. which means higher taxes paid..
the country spent 30 years being told immigrants were draining the system.. turns out they were funding it.. and the people who told you that knew the numbers the whole time

Immigrants generate more income and taxes than the average person, per CATO Institute.

MAGA authoritarianism is pretending the president is “joking” when he makes death threats, but comedians are somehow “shaping public policy” when they make jokes.

I’ve never met anyone far-right who wasn’t EXTREMELY stupid. Grandiose and well-read, that exists, but even press lightly against the surface and you get sweeping category error, poor comprehension, and poor source analysis.

-British guy goes to Africa: “What’s this animal called”
-African tribesman: “We call it Okapi”
- Western scholars: “The Okapi was discovered 150 years ago by that British guy”

🔴 INFO - #Nature : L'#okapi a la tête d'une #girafe, les rayures d'un #zèbre, le corps d'un cheval et une langue bleue assez longue pour nettoyer ses yeux et oreilles. Découvert il y a moins de 150 ans, il vit uniquement à l'état sauvage en République démocratique du Congo.

The NBA has declined more than any major sport in recent years. Analytics have effectively solved the game, driving a playing style that’s repetitive, less interesting to watch, and contributes to player injuries. By the end of the season, it’s a Hunger Games outcome (survival over winning) where the team with the uninjured players wins.
Gambling influence and intentional team tanking have made the integrity of the sport increasingly questionable. These issues have been obvious for years, and management has done little to address them.
Instead Adam Silver, the NBA commissioner, is rewarded with a board chair position at Duke - which underscores the lack of merit and competence behind a declining institution.
