The plaintiffs’ arguments in Moore v. United States have little basis in law — unless you think that a list of long-ago-discarded laissez-faire decisions from the early 20th century remain good law. And a decision favoring these plaintiffs could blow a huge hole in the federal budget. While no Warren-style wealth tax is on the books, the Moore plaintiffs do challenge an existing tax that is expected to raise $340 billion over the course of a decade.

But Republicans also hold six seats on the nation’s highest Court, so there is some risk that a majority of the justices will accept the plaintiffs’ dubious legal arguments. And if they do so, they could do considerable damage to the government’s ability to fund itself.

      It’s ok that you don’t know what “objectively” means. I love teaching you words. It’s a core part of our friendship, chief!

        Yes yes everyone is crazy and you’re the most right boy ever, sure. Whatever you need your mommy to tell you so you can sleep sound at night.

                Calling people crazy because you can’t defend your actual argument is lashing out.

                Sexual harassment too, you’re a fucking weirdo dude.

                  I called you crazy because you said crazy shit, not because e you disagree with me. The person who insulted the other for disagreeing is you.

                  It’s not sexual harassment to be turned on.

                    Ya huh, your the most correct boy who ever lived. You’re also full of shit about me insulting you first dumb dumb.

                    It is if you tell them other person and they clearly want nothing to do with you.
