I lived in Minnesota for 4 years - I was on the far west side several hour drive from Minneapolis, only a 30 minute drive to South Dakota.
It was conservative leaning. I would say similar to SD in most ways - except taxes.
The reason Minnesota is crazy is because of Minneapolis - same as several other states where the big city population over rides the small rural areas of the state.
As of early 2025, the United Nations Secretary-General, António Guterres, earns a total annual compensation of approximately $418,348. This figure includes a net base salary of $238,375 and a post adjustment of $179,973. The salary does not include additional benefits such as housing, an official residence in Manhattan, and a personal chauffeur.
My daughter's cancer medication is $26,000 a month.
Insurance takes it down to $2,600 as the allowable amount they can bill subject to deductibles and copays + she uses a discount card her doctor gave her to get it down to $200 something.
If you say something is $26,000 for 30 pills and then agree to take $200 WTF does that say about our healthcare system?
$200 / 30 = ~~$7 a pill but $26,000 is $3,715
I have an accounting degree, am a CPA, CMA, MBA, was a controller for a finance company, operations manager and CFO at a manufacturing company.
She thinks Chinese, black and brown people are not racist.
So she will "cure" racism by flooding the country with Chinese, black and brown people.
She is totally 110% wrong about this in just about everyway imaginable. She must not actually know any Chinese, black or brown people or maybe even ever talked to one of them.
I have an account - opened years ago - have not used it in years. It is hooked to an old AOL email I also never use unless someone like a car salesman needs an email address.
The private gun club I am a member of requires dues be paid every year.
I go on line to pay - they no longer take credit card directly - but said they would accept a payment trough their "portal" - no charge.
They already had my name, address, email and phone number - all I needed was to give them a credit card - so I did - checked the box and entered the amount.
A few minutes later I got an email from PayPal - my new account was already set up.
I had purchased a fishing rod for my grandson - I started getting spam emails from companies trying to sell me fishing gear that same day.
I immediately canceled the account - but fought spam on email and text messages for a few weeks. Before PayPal I almost never got spam on my mail email because I don't give it out same as my phone number.
PayPal is a spam advertising company pretending to process payments.
How do they know how many miles I have driven? Not all vehicles are trackable. Do they require I put a tracker on my vehicle?
Look at the giant system gov uses to collect tax revenue - the cost to handle the collection of this tax will end up being half the revenue.
Very dumb idea - block a few hundred thousand people from using their vehicle - can't get to work, they will become full of hate and direct that hate at politicians that created the mess.
I predict this tax will fail.
You want to know how to get the federal income tax killed off?
Don't do any withholding - have people file at the end of the year and pay in the entire balance.
If you get it stolen before you get your paycheck - or it is just added on to the total purchase like sales and gas taxes you adjust to it and are not mad as hell every time you pay the tax.
Bunch it up and make people "write a check" just for the tax and it will cause an uproar.
Recall how mad you were when you got your first paycheck and discovered something called FICA and withholding? By the time you got your 3RD paycheck you had already been conditioned to take it in the ass and not complain.
I had around 600 women in a low skilled position - no man ever lasted more that a few weeks because they would apply for another job. Low skill low pay compared to other jobs.
I also had 200 highly skilled maintenance people - almost 100% men that were by far the highest paid people in the company.
Overall I had about 50/50 men and women - but because of these two groups the average pay for women company wide was significantly less that the average wage for men.
EEOC said that is discrimination and I had to fix it.
How do I do that?
First they said I had to hire more women in maintenance. That was impossible - they don't exist in any numbers - we searched and searched and never found a single woman that had the skills we needed.
So they came back with - then you need to increase the pay for the women only positions so it balances out your pay. That is insane - but if I raise the pay of a low skill job to be above the pay of a semi skilled job - the people in that job will demand a raise.
Then the people in skilled positions will also demand a raise. It would be a disaster.
I was within days of a full court battle - when they suddenly dropped the case with no explanation given. My guess is someone figured out they were FOS and would loose.
Only group worse that EEOC is OSHA. Even the IRS will agree when you show them the code and that you followed the law. The other groups try and make it up as they go.
If they fire their most productive people all that will be left is people that pretend to work from home but do nothing and the people that play computer games and watch TiKToc videos all day.

For anyone out there that says Trump has not done anything worthwhile -

Many people bought an EV just because of the rebate.
They are the highest class of retard -
Pay $67,500 for an EV get a $7,500 rebate for a net acquisition cost of $60,000 and three years later you have a vehicle worth $15,000.
Buy a $67,500 F150 and in 3 years it is still worth $40,000.
You saved $7,000 on gas - paid $2,000 for electricity so net savings on "fuel" $5,000
Total net loss $35,000.
Can someone from government explain why people don't want EVs? The math is too hard!
This is my surprised face!

You know they will make it "progressive".
The first 100 miles per week tax at $.05 per mile
next 100 miles $.10 per mile
Anything over 200 miles $1.00 per mile.
Did they say how they will collect it?
Weekly tax returns - give it to them good and hard!
If they do it once a year people will not have the $$ to pay it - this is why they have income tax withholding.
More like the queefy city.
