To put that in perspective, Trump spent an estimated $151.5 million golfing during his first term, so he is on pace to double that figure.

Because that is what he is paid to do.

I wonder if they learned from the Iran experience that maybe if you’re chill about it, old man Trump will just lob a few bombs and move on? It sucks but there’s good strategical reasons to try not yo escalate a bad situation

Some economists insist that you cannot say that a market is in a bubble when presumably rational investors say it isn't. But the economy itself can shift investment away from"rational" behavior as long as agents have different risk preferences and realistic time horizons.

The inclusion rate was 75% until Chretien/Martin slashed it to 50%. The proposed increase Carney killed would have raised it to 66.6% on gains in excess of $250,000.
In short CEOS are only taxed on 1/2 their gains which make up the bulk of their income

The small increase in the capital gains inclusion rare that Carney axed is significant here as CEOs typically make a small portion of their income from wages. The axing of this increase is a massive stealth tax cut for these executives.
