re: Tax Day Musings - Withholdings
Posted by NOLAVOL16 on 4/16/24 at 8:27 am
Withholding should be ended and everyone should have to write a check on tax day. Nobody should get a “refund” for more than they paid. AND tax day should be moved to the Monday before Election Day.
Make people feel the true cost of bloated government right before they vote. ...

re: Insurance rates lead to major softening of Florida Real Estate market
Posted by NOLAVOL16 on 3/16/24 at 9:00 pm
In all honesty, that’s what SHOULD be happening 100%. Why do people inland have to subsidize coastal homes that get destroyed every few years? You want to live on the ocean and enjoy that beauty, pay the piper. ...
re: Squatters take over 1200 homes in Atlanta,open illegal strip clubs and terrorize neighbors

Agreed. The mistake people make in these cases is calling the cops and creating a paper trail. Just get some buddies and toss the a-hole out, with force if necessary. If he complains to the cops just pretend you have no idea what some lunatic is talking about. “This is my house officer, I’ve never ...

re: How many pounds of crawfish do you need to feel sated?
Posted by NOLAVOL16 on 1/29/24 at 12:27 pm
I love the boil taste but quickly get annoyed with peeling so I wind up eating mostly potato’s corn and sausage.
I find the crawfish themselves to be more trouble than they are worth in terms of peeling effort per quantity of meat. Same reason I don’t eat crab legs. ...
re: Louisiana now charges road usage fee for electric and hybrid vehicles
Posted by NOLAVOL16 on 1/28/24 at 10:42 am
EVs are heavier than ICE vehicles and cause more damage to roadways.
Look, I agree they should pay the equivalent of the gas tax, but this weight thing is a fallacy. Unless the vehicle weighs 15k lbs or more, the road doesn’t even know it’s there. Interstates would last forever if there were no s...
re: What are must do travel trips with your kids?
Posted by NOLAVOL16 on 1/28/24 at 10:17 am
When you go on a road trip, give the kids a paper map and play games like betting a quarter on who can best guess your arrival time at points of interest. Or have them figure out where a good place to stop for lunch would be. Teaches them geography, math, how to read a map, etc...

Assuming you’re in the southeast, I’d start with the Smokies and a trip to Cades Cove
Skip Cades Cove unless you enjoy sitting in bumper to bumper traffic for 5 hours looking at open fields and a few deer. The only exception to this is if you get there early and bike it before they open the roa...
re: Are there more homeless people?
Posted by NOLAVOL16 on 1/24/24 at 8:43 pm
Society has become more complex. About 15% of the population is too stupid to have consistent employment. Throw in the druggies and the crazies, and we have a bad situation that will only get worse.
This right here. And most people in civil society never interact with these people and hence don...
re: Should I look for a house to buy in NOLA or in suburbs?
Posted by NOLAVOL16 on 1/22/24 at 8:10 pm
Quite honestly, if you have kids, you shouldn’t live anywhere near New Orleans. Even the private schools are only great in comparison to the garbage public schools.
We moved from there to Nashville and the schools were night and day comparatively. ...
re: NYC is kicking kids out of HS to house illegals with approaching storm
Posted by NOLAVOL16 on 1/10/24 at 2:14 am
Agreed. This bussing plan is actually starting to work. Nobody can ignore the hypocrisy and idiocy of what is being allowed to happen. ...

What is it about leftist freaks and having a hard on for closing schools to make kids “learn” remotely
A large portion of their voting base is teacher unions who LOVE getting free vacation days. ...
re: "We need tens of millions of illegals to fill all the job vacancies in the US."
Posted by NOLAVOL16 on 1/4/24 at 6:25 pm
I did too. One difference today is that if you’re willing to put in the time, it’s much easier and more convenient to make money making stupid YouTube videos or driving Uber than flipping burgers for minimum wage. ...

Plenty of electricians, welders, pipe fitters, etc. These people aren't all working in the fields picking lettuce
No doubt. And those are the people we SHOULD be letting in in a controlled way. Immigration should be about “is this person an asset or liability to the US”. The no skill liabilities ...
re: "We need tens of millions of illegals to fill all the job vacancies in the US."
Posted by NOLAVOL16 on 1/4/24 at 4:54 pm
We must have close to 70-80 million illegals running around the U.S. by now.
If you include illegals and their “legal” offspring you’re probably pretty close. Most of our population growth over the last 30 years has snuck across the southern border. And because of it our roads are crumbling and o...

If we did not make it so easy to thrive in America without working, they would.
This. Right. Here.
We don’t need to import more no skill people. We have plenty of no skill citizens that are sitting on their asses collecting the dole. If they had to work or starve, all of a sudden those jobs w...
re: How can anyone on this earth listen to Ben Shapiro talk for 2-3 hours/day?
Posted by NOLAVOL16 on 1/4/24 at 4:41 pm
He’s great in the 4-5 minute clips you catch on YouTube especially the Q&A on campuses. Ditto Matt Walsh.
That said, since Rush died I can’t listen to talk radio anymore. Nobody has the blend of conversation and humor that he had. Hannity just browbeats people and says the same thing over and ov...
