I get it. What I don't get is how having the number at $600 (and not $10,000) will cut down on tax fraud. Which should be the only reason why Yellen should want to do anything in the role that she is in.

[innocentbystander]

Also, any kind of legislation like this, its just going to drive people to use cryptocurrency all the more.

Gov. Janet Mills shot down a Tuesday call from top Republicans to pass a testing alternative to her vaccine mandate for health care workers after a Lewiston hospital moved to temporarily reduce admissions further.

Central Maine Medical Center posted on Monday that it was suspending pediatric, heart attack and trauma admissions. It came after the hospital gave a grim contingency plan to lawmakers on Friday that included cutting intensive care unit beds by 50 percent if it loses all workers who remain unvaccinated when the mandate goes into effect this month.

It is the first Maine hospital seeing wide-ranging effects on its operations with Mills’ mandate set to be enforced late this month and President Joe Biden’s administration implementing a superseding one. Neither has a testing alternative, which the Lewiston hospital and some lawmakers want. Mills ruled it out on Tuesday, though a top legislative Democrat did not.

Central Maine Medical Center cited “unprecedented healthcare workforce shortages” in a Tuesday statement. A COVID-19 pandemic workforce shortage has led to 500 job openings across the hospital’s parent group, which has said it could lose up to 200 workers of 3,000 in total unless they decide to get vaccinated within a few days.

For now, patients who arrive at the Lewiston hospital’s emergency room will be screened and stabilized before possibly being transferred to another hospital. The trauma diversion status would be reviewed every 24 hours, while the halting of pediatric care will continue until further notice. Heart attack patients were admitted again on Tuesday. It will also be closing its neonatal intensive care unit at the end of the month due to resignations of key workers.

The challenges have led to the hospital’s officials to call on Mills to provide testing options. Steve Littleston, the president and CEO of Central Maine Healthcare, told the Portland Press Herald that would reduce 90 percent of the system’s expected departures due to the mandate.

Republicans have joined in, with Senate Minority Leader Jeff Timberlake, R-Turner, and House Minority Leader Kathleen Dillingham, R-Oxford, writing in a Tuesday letter to Democratic leaders that the Legislature should return for a special session to discuss amending the mandate, saying “it is not hyperbole to suggest Mainers will die” if that does not happen.

The Democratic governor shot back in a statement later, calling that remark “repugnant, dishonest, and an insult to every Maine person who has lost their life to COVID-19.” She said her policy “will keep both health care workers and their patients alive” and noted that the upcoming federal policy — which will supersede the state mandate — has no exception.

We don't have enough labor to keep the hospital open because the workers refuse to vaccinate. They would rather quit their jobs then take the vaccine. We can not help everyone that need help, its impossible. No labor. So math says people who will not be treated will die. Math says we have to submit to the staff or people die.

Fuck math. Math is racist. A policy is a policy. And it will be enforced. The end.

You know, I've seen small companies go out of business simply because all the workers quit (usually because they could make more money elsewhere.) Never once did the management at those companies stipulate that math didn't matter (which is what this governor just did.) They knew that without labor, they were doomed.

I read the USA Today link. I am not a moron. I was just asking how this change over existing policy would help stop tax fraud. Your link didn't do a wonderful job answering that question.

Biden can't write bills to be signed into law. All he can do, is create an executive order. All executive orders terminate at the end of an Administration. (That is why Trump didn't have to maintain DACA.) Now if the IRS wants to change their regulatory policies (and it appears Yellen wants to do that very thing) then the responsibility is with the legislature to understand exactly why she wants transactions at $600 or more documented. And if that is a no-go for congress, then they need to write a bill, have it signed by the President, and create a law to prevent her from doing that. Obviously, NONE OF THAT will happen with this Senate and this President. Biden appointed Yellen so he is going to agree with whatever she says (because she is going to agree with Biden.) So he will not be signing any bills into law to stay her hand.

Immigration is a non issue that’s given to idiots to distract them from thinking about things that actually matter.

Its not an issue to you. But if you live in Greeley Colorado and you "had" a job in a meat packing plant ("had" being the operative word) and that job once paid $16.95 an hour, but the managers at Greeley could bring in wetbacks to do your job for $11.95/hour (because the Mexican immigrant is willing to live in squalor just to stay in the USA) then it matters. Maybe you only have an IQ of 91 and that meat packing job is the best way for you to earn a living in Greeley? Maybe you have no other options? Maybe your wife just divorced you because you can't keep her in the lifestyle that she was accustomed?

Tree, immigration is everything if you are a limited human being in the United States. If the immigrants who came here were all PhDs in computer science, then yes, immigration would be a non issue. But they aren't and its not. And people LIKE YOU refuse to allow our existing immigration law (which is based solely on family connections, not intelligence, accumulated wealth, or educational background) to be altered in anyway.

So you are just wrong.

You realize this is the only way the ponzi scheme of capitalism can function right? Increasing amounts of cheap labor and poor consumers to buy our Art Pope drek. PS I think I just agreed with you. Please file this away for when the insect overlords come.

I thought IBs hole was in Arizona? Those poor fucking meat packers need to suck it up. I don't see people fighting for jobs today.

Yet again, you stupid fuck, you’re wrong. EO’s don’t expire unless there is a sunset clause. The EO’s must be rescinded / revoked / overridden / cancelled.

Sunset clause? The EO is rescinded by the next President on his authority. Was there even one EO that Trump wrote that Biden didn't terminate on Jan 20 of this year?

[DooKSucks]

“All executive orders terminate at the end of an Administration.”

Wrong. There has to be an action ending the order.

What do you not understand, you stupid son of a bitch?

What do you not understand, you stupid son of a bitch?

The only ending action that is needed to end the order is the next President taking office and instantly ending the order.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Executive_order

Presidential executive orders, once issued, remain in force until they are canceled, revoked, adjudicated unlawful, or expire on their terms. At any time, the president may revoke, modify or make exceptions from any executive order, whether the order was made by the current president or a predecessor.

At. Any. Time. The President may revoke. Biden revoked every single EO that Trump issued the moment he took office. You should know, you were masturbating while Biden was "taking that action."

DS, I say this with the most sincerity that I can muster, kindly fuck off.
