POLL: letting your kid walk barefoot on the conveyor belt at the grocery store… gross?

SuperTank

Eh - if he was freaking out before not gross. If no freak out, gross

Whoever doesn’t think it is gross should be pushed out of the marriage contract

maybe gross (depends on the kid) but also stupid. with kids everything is precedent-setting and this is a bad start

Yes mag is a great player BUT…

HimmerFredette

2:10pm

ky has specifically said the offense from Phoenix won't be our offense

cougarfann888

2:12pm

But then I wonder, What is his ideal offense? And does it fit our personnel

HimmerFredette

2:13pm

Score buckets maybe? Just a guess

TNT

Wide open pick and roll offense

Cougforgood

I imagine we'd see Keita fill a similar role in the offense like AAA did last...

Old video:

Skeptical Optimist

California proposes charging drivers $0.03/mile.

Division Bell Recovering

1:52pm

I'm sure this will be offset by an equal and opposite lowering of the gas tax.

Cougarclaw

1:54pm

RE: I'm sure this will be offset by an equal and opposite lowering of the gas

SanDiegoCoug

1:56pm

That is exactly what is being proposed. Trade off the gas tax for a use tax.

Greg Kite's 'stache

1:57pm

Gas tax is a use tax

GfB

2:02pm

Not for EVs.

John Doe

2:05pm

Yes-gas tax is a use tax on gas, which is a good proxy for road usage if everyone has an ICE

Greg Kite's 'stache

2:08pm

Everyone uses public goods. Those without a vehicle, perhaps even more so than others. Everyone eats.

Division Bell

2:12pm

Yes-and the price of transportation-related taxes become part of the price of the good being transported

Greg Kite's 'stache

2:20pm

Looks like it’s ~3¢ per mile, not 30¢ btw. OP was only off by a factor of 10.

TCuz

2:06pm

OP was quoting the linked headline. Not his fault.

Yukon

2:07pm

No. If it was one time, sure. But this is a regular thing. Some level of fact checking is expected

TCuz

2:10pm

Wait a minute... we incentivized everyone to go to EVs and gas taxes declined?

Jericho

Use taxes tend to be more efficient but you would hope that you would have reduction elsewhere.

Baron

They’ve been discussing this for three or four years now.

lightmann

2:15pm

Check my math:

HuskerFan2

2:15pm

Now figure it for $0.03 per mile.

John Doe

2:22pm

your math is right, but also wrong b/c the tax rate would actually be 1/10 of that

byujag

2:23pm

So $370 per average driver and $10.2 billion in new revenue.

HuskerFan2

What the fudge? Maybe California should just start their own country

California is taxing fudge now? now THAT I cannot abide!

Yes, but BYUtv still produces those events.

SWKTNative

BYU/BYUtv still produces those events, they just end up on ESPN+ now.

Spiff

Dortmund has scored 6 and given up 2 in their last 3 UCL games. Madrid 5 & 4. So 5.5 does seem high
