#Taxes . . .

Paid my Fed & State #IncomeTaxes today, a day early to avoid the "rush" at the PO, with #USPS #PriorityMail which is supposed to guarantee 3 days delivery but, in my experience, sometimes fails to achieve that.

I print the labels at home off of USPS' website & then wait to have the labels scanned at the counter to make sure that tracking shows delivery on the date it was mailed.

After that, I get the float on my $$ until the USPS delivers it & my bank "cashes" the checks.

It's just a few pennies but it's worth it to me to make the government wait for their $. 😊

Did taxes. Now watching Godzilla fights.

Spain's government approves migrant amnesty measure for legal status

Spain's government has finalized a migrant amnesty measure that paves the way for potentially hundreds of thousands of undocumented immigrants to apply for legal status. Tuesday's move contrasts with stricter immigration policies in much of Europe and the United States. Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez called it “an act of justice and a necessity.” He emphasized that those living and working in Spain should do so under equal conditions and pay taxes. Eligible immigrants can apply for a one-year residency and work permit at various government offices. Applicants must have arrived before Jan. 1 and meet specific residency and legal criteria.

CA Makes More Per Gallon of Gas in Taxes Than Oil Companies Do in Profit

When it comes to gas and oil prices, Democrats in California are facing increasing push-back, as the U.S. Oil and Gas Association and others blast claims that the Iran conflict, President Trump, or so-called corporate greed are responsible for the state’s prices, which are among the highest in the nation.  Advertisement Governor Gavin Newsom's Press Office thought it would test its luck against Chevron, writing on X, "While America suffers, Chevron profits." For emphasis, the governor […]
