I’m under the gun to get our taxes done (they are too complicated for TurboTax, yet our income is too modest to afford an accountant, a truly fiendish combination), so after the response earlier I have not had time to respond more–only to read for now. I am saving quoted posts to get to, I promise! But I wanted to quickly interject that I respect what M4M owned up to, and I almost always respect Kimstu’s approach, even though she is still pretty hard on me in her own way (and due to the respect factor, that has a lot more impact than the invective hurled by others). So Kimstu, my interjection is addressed to you. Will you please respond to Evil Economist (post #1232)? I have a feeling you know EE’s argument is bullshit: some kind of circular reasoning or begging the question, in that ballpark.
