Some, but not all, and it was repealed later. Lincoln's reforms of the currency continued. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greenback_(1860s_money)
Yes I was speaking of before the war. He learned politics the hard way going through several failures in his life. History tries to gloss over that the Emancipation Proclamation was more about politics than some moral ephiany on his part.
The FATCA law was passed in 2010 which attempted to tighten up reporting rules and agreements with other countries. Unfortunately like with many things Congress does the law on unintended consequences reared its head and some in Congress like Rand Paul are trying to fix.
Trump said he would pay Elizabeth Warren $ 1 million if she could prove she has Native American heritage. Now let's see him man up and pay his debt. https://www.cnbc.com/2018/10/15/sen...sis-points-to-a-native-american-heritage.html I don't expect him to do just like right wingers on this forum who fail to pay up their bets. This owing to their arrogant lack of character and integrity.
I never once doubted she had a TINY portion of native American heritage. Many do to some extent. It was how she took advantage of it. From your article:
I heard this somewhere else but have never seen substantiation of this claim with respect to closing the major tax loopholes that allow for Corporate rape of the USA. I doubt that Obama went after these loopholes.
please see the links I have previously posted: https://www.google.com/search?q=oba...e..69i57j33.9287j0j7&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8
defined: "unadmixed Native American Ancestor" — meaning an ancestor with "100 percent ancestry assigned to a single population" — in Warren's family tree https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/po...sults-showing-she-has-native-american-n920056
Now that we had settle the DNA question concerning Elizabeth Warren, It would be amusing for someone to offer Trump a million dollars if he can prove that he qualify for Mensa membership by taking their standard IQ test. Love to see him proved that he is a stable genus as he had been claiming. Hell it also would be amusing to see what the average IQ of Trump supporters happen to be while we are at it.
Gotta love stats like this: It is actually not the foreign income that I am so concerned about (although that is quite a sum). It is the way shell companies are used to avoid tax on profits made in the US - although they may be counting this as "foreign income". In any case the NYTimes article that I looked at does address some of these issues but, note that the date is a couple months after Obama came into office. - still starry eyed and not yet indoctrinated by the Establishment. https://www.nytimes.com/2009/05/05/business/05tax.html
Your party is worse then the democrats, you break up families, voted into office a President which, by lying and incompetence, is bringing down the country little by little, a party which advocates cutting medicare and medicade to the people who need it the most, a party which refuses to acknowledge their shortcomings and the list goes on and on. No, you're definitely not the party of Lincoln.
Didn't Trump promise to give 5 million to Obama's favorite charity if he could produce his birth certificate? Obama produced the birth certificate and I never heard anything else.
He have a long long history of not keeping his promises such as his promise not to use d junk bonds to the NJ gaming commission for his jersey casinos. Hell when a reporter had dare to write that Trump flag ship casino could not service it debts correctly he had the man fired. My fellow citizens had elected a real.............as president
Your source says that there's strong evidence that she has a native american ancestor. Not that she has one.
LOL the percents does not matter in any way as she does have native american DNA in her makeup and that is all repeat all the woman claimed to have in her family tree unless you can show where she had claimed a given percent of native American blood. I would suggest that you give it up just like Trump in the end gave up the nonsense that Obama was not born in Hawaii.
Red is the party of the Klan. Blue used to be - many decades ago - but if one is in the Klan these days your party is Red. Your claim that Blue espouses the same hate and racism of the Klan is preposterous nonsense on steroids - The vast majority of blacks vote Blue.
Interesting that you use the term "IQ" and refer to abortion in the same paragraph. If you play the kindergarten game "which one is not like the other" - and the 3 pictures are "A man - a monkey - and a single human cell" - even a child can tell you that a single human cell is not a man. What then is the IQ of these anti aborts that claim otherwise ?
Of course the percents matter. Just because all humans trace their ancestry back to "Noah" or some other single source - does not mean there a Negro can run around legitimately claiming to be Chinese.
The GOP as a party have a history of no honor and will do anything they can get away with to try to keep in power an example of that is their welcoming with open arms the KKK in the 1960s or to this day doing their best to keep black citizens from voting.
