Not surprisingly, Trump’s overall tax and tariff proposals would make the very rich much richer and working families poorer.
If you earn less than $360,000 a year, your taxes are going to go way up.

There is a famine again in Gaza- no aid is getting in and electricity and water are severely limited. So if Gazans on here seem more persistent than usual please remember they are desperate and treat them how you’d hope someone would treat your family.

ANYWAY, did you know there's an extension you can put on Chrome that will connect with your local library system and when you go look at a book, say on AMZ, it will tell you if that book exists in the library system and if it's available?
It's literally called Library Extension.

We also pay taxes. And so do indie bookshops.
