Proposal to delete Federal taxation in the United States

I have tagged the article Federal taxation in the United States as proposed for deletion, as previously noted. Your prior discussions with User:Int21h indicate that most of the article was copied by him from Taxation in the United States. While I agree that the topic is of sufficient length and notability that it could be a separate article, I believe the needs of the community are better served with a single article. Further, trying to maintain two high level articles, one of which is merely a subset of the other, will impose too great an editing burden and lead to many errors and contradictions. I believe the Federal taxation article should be no more than a redirect to Taxation in the United States. Comments welcome on my talk page or the Federal tax article talk page. Thanks.

Linder pic caption suggestion

The Linder picture on the FairTax page, I believe, is from 2007 and shows Linder with the FairTax and the 2007 tax code, yet the caption says "current" tax code, ("Rep John Linder holding the 133 page Fair Tax Act in contrast to the current U.S. tax code.") making it dated and inaccurate.

I would suggest perhaps adjusting it to something like this: "Rep John Linder holding the 133 page Fair Tax Act in contrast to the then-current 2007 U.S. tax code." or "Rep John Linder in 2007 holding the 133 page Fair Tax Act in contrast to the annually growing U.S. tax code."

As you are someone so knowledgable on the article, I thought I'd throw that out to you because this is something that strikes me every time I look at it. Thanks! Pbgiv (talk) 19:16, 3 March 2011 (UTC)

Thanks, I updated taking a bit from each suggestion. I used then-current and added 2007 to the bill version Fair Tax Act of 2007, since I'm not sure if it is still 133 pages (they made a few tweaks in 2009 & 2011). Morphh ^(talk) 02:39, 4 March 2011 (UTC)

The Linder picture is very deceptive. The "then-current tax code" is the two maroon volumes on which Mr. Linder is resting the pages he's holding. I don't know what the blue volumes beside him are, other than maybe an attempt to make the reader believe they are the current state of the law. I strongly favor removing this photo as inherently very biased. Oldtaxguy (talk) 20:14, 2 May 2011 (UTC)

That would be the complete set of Title 26 of the US Code of Federal Regulations (that's the part written by the IRS), which make up twenty volumes. I'll adjust the caption. Morphh ^(talk) 23:34, 2 May 2011 (UTC)

WP:NOTFORUM - Forward!

You are, of course, quite correct. As a historian in Wisconsin (birthplace of the actual Republican Party (R.I.P.) I am simply amazed and annoyed at the pathetic efforts by the paid liars of the chattering classes to taint my state's motto as evidence of communism, as part of their effort to brand the mealy-mouthed Eisenhower Republicanism of the Obama administration as the work of Stalin's minions (with a side order of guilt-by-association with the Hitler Youth). Sadly, my annoyance leads me to attempt to actually teach them some history, undoubtedly a futile gesture. --Orange Mike | Talk 20:22, 4 May 2012 (UTC)

Obama Controversies Not Mentioned

If you want some points that have been getting kept out of the Obama article for years, controversies they don't want mentioned no matter how prominent, here are some examples.

• Opposed medical care for newborn infants, was a major issue in both the 2004 and 2008 elections and brought up by Alan Keyes, Hillary Clinton, and John McCain. Newt Gingrich brought it up in 2012. I've written this page covering it, which includes 50 prominent sources. Some major sources include:[1][2][3][4][5][6][7]
• Disqualified all four opponents in first election, in 1996, so he could run unopposed. He used a team of lawyers to disqualify the petition signatures of opponents on technicalities after the filing deadline. I've written this section covering it. Some major sources include:[8][9][10][11][12]
• Struck a deal with Illinois Senate leader to get all legislation from other Illinois Senators directed to his desk in 2003, building his entire legislative record in one year, in preparation for the 2004 elections so he could become a U.S. Senator. I've written this page covering it. Some major sources include:[13][14][15][16][17][18]

I can't say that I'm interested in getting involved with inserting contentious material into hot topic articles. I'm not looking to _target inserting criticism. I evaluate each piece of content on its own merits based on the encyclopedia's policy. So I could just as easily argue against inserting such content depending on the arguments and sources presented in discussion. It looks like you've done some work though, so I encourage you to create an account and present this on the appropriate article's talk page if you think it necessary content for an encyclopedia article.

question about dynamic scoring edits

Hi Morphh,

You contend that my edits to the dynamic scoring page present an incorrect premise. Can you please clarify? The premise I added (lower taxes increase economic growth and subsequently tax receipts) is exactly what conservative leaders are arguing for to restore the economy. Are they wrong?

I feel that this article lacks balance and is skewed to promote conservative fiscal ideology. I was attempting to add a little balance by providing historical and factual data refuting that philosophy.

best wishes,

trappem — Preceding unsigned comment added by Trappem (talk • contribs) 20:14, 4 December 2012 (UTC)

This article is not the article to debate supply-side economics and the effects of a particular policy choice. Dynamic scoring is simply considering the economic effects of policy when scoring the plan, be it good, bad, or otherwise. Taxation has economic disturbance - dynamic scoring attempts to measure that disturbance. The article states that conservatives promote dynamic scoring as common methodologies factor lower taxes return higher benefits in terms of GDP growth and provide revenue increases over static scoring - this is a true statement. There is no need to include the premise, which is WP:OR as opinions differ depending on what conservative your talking about or liberal for that matter (as they too argue that tax increases hurt economic growth) and what income or policy your discussing (tax increases on the middle class, business owners, "the rich"?). The second portion is also vague - increased revenue over what... static scoring or prior revenues? And of course the rebuttal conclusion is extreme and very weakly supported by the sources. All things equal, 75% marginal tax rates will not boost GDP - there is no causality in these historical figures and it goes against all empirical evidence (U.S. and Global). I'm fine with trying to add balance, but let's not turn this article into a debate on tax policy and the vast opinions regarding it's effects. Morphh ^(talk) 21:24, 4 December 2012 (UTC)

"99.9%" of people supporting criminalization of homosexuality in 1990 isn't quite on. By that point, states which still had sodomy laws on the books were in a minority. The USA is backward, but not apparently that backward. –Roscelese (talk ⋅ contribs) 19:45, 22 July 2013 (UTC)

Yeah, I don't know what the opinion statistic would be either. I don't think the "lots of people supported criminalization back then" is relevant either way, since it's Card's support that is controversial, not anyone else's; I just took the off-topic discussion here since I wasn't sure you knew that most states had actually already repealed their sodomy laws before Lawrence. –Roscelese (talk ⋅ contribs) 20:18, 22 July 2013 (UTC)

Genealogy and Family History merger

Hi, this merger has been spotlighted on FamilySearch Blog: https://familysearch.org/blog/en/difference-genealogy-family-history/ . Hope I did OK explaining it to the public. Murphynw (talk) 02:37, 10 August 2013 (UTC)

I agree with your comments. I don't understand the purpose of trying to parce differences between "genealogy" and "family history." It looks like picking one over the other is largely a regional difference in English. It looks like each country has it's own bizarre history of bouncing back between one or the other. If I've understand the comments correctly, in the UK, Australia, and New Zealand, “family history” is the preferred verbiage. In the United States, Mormons (members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints) also prefer to call the endeavor “family history,” but people who are not Mormons prefer “genealogy.” But overall, it's clearly "genealogy" that is most recognizable according to the studies I've seen.

Progressivism & education & taxes

While what you say has merit, I think omitting remarks about editor behavior is the best course of action. Perhaps an WP:RFC/U is in order. Thanks. – S. Rich (talk) 19:05, 18 January 2014 (UTC)

@Srich32977: You're probably right - just frustrating. And yes, RFC/U or ANI (recommend topic ban as related to economic inequality) would be a good next step. I'm not really familiar with starting either one though. Morphh ^(talk) 20:08, 18 January 2014 (UTC)

Perhaps we should have an RFC/U on editors who plan actions against others without informing them they are being discussed. EllenCT (talk) 23:22, 18 January 2014 (UTC)

I recall that you actually did file an ANI without notifying me. Me responding to a post on my talk page about another editor's behavior is not something that I think requires notification. Morphh ^(talk) 23:37, 19 January 2014 (UTC)

Morph, I appreciate your attempts on the article talk pages, but I don't think EllenCT is misunderstanding what's logically required. My suspicion is that she see this as her mission to provide a counterpoint to conservative perspectives and wants to push certain conclusions she has, even if there's no direct support for it. You've laid out the logical gap, but she ignores simple direct requests and refers to irrelevant sources as her justification. I'm at my end trying to reason with her tendentious editing.Mattnad (talk) 16:25, 19 January 2014 (UTC)

@Mattnad: I agree that she should be fully aware of the issues and policy by now - it's a reoccurring theme. She's tried to create several straw men, so I just wanted to lay it out directly, maybe more for anyone else that reads the discussion later. I didn't want others falling for the logical fallacy. Morphh ^(talk) 18:05, 19 January 2014 (UTC)

Replacement of "progressive" with "redistributive"

If I remember correctly, at least two times and likely more in the past week or two you have replaced text and links referring to "progressive" and similar terms with other terms referring to "redistributive", after having asked for the original terms to be included because, as you pointed out, progressive taxes don't increase income equality unless they are accompanied by progressive transfer payments. However, transfer payment redistributions can and do also occur from the poor to the rich, both through government fiscal policy, government monetary policy and private sector rent-seeking. Since "redistributive" policies can be regressive instead of progressive, would you please undo those edits? EllenCT (talk) 11:04, 20 January 2014 (UTC)

I think you mistaking me with someone else, as I don't recall saying that "progressive taxes don't increase income equality unless they are accompanied by progressive transfer payments". Ignoring dynamic effects, even if the government just burned the money, the taxation itself would reduce income inequality. No transfer payments are necessary, but I probably asked for inclusion of mentioning progressive spending because it's what is done. Since many people might not be aware of what "progressive spending" is (it's sort of a neologism and not a common term to the general public) and perhaps confuse it with spending tied to a political philosophy and not a distribution method, I thought the term redistributive spending was a more familiar for readers that said essentially the same thing. I agree that the term redistribution could go both ways, but given the context of the section and sentence "and social safety nets result" along with the common use of the term to the general public, rich to poor is implied/assumed. It doesn't matter much to me though and I'll undo it on Progressive tax (not sure which other article you're thinking), I was just trying to clarify it for the average reader following WP:TECHNICAL, which says "Every reasonable attempt should be made to ensure that material is presented in the most widely understandable manner possible. If an article is written in a highly technical manner, but the material permits a more understandable explanation, then editors are strongly encouraged to rewrite it." Perhaps we could find a better wording like the phrasing we use on the income inequality article "in a more equal distribution of income across the board." Morphh ^(talk) 13:35, 20 January 2014 (UTC)

I noted the change on the Progressive tax article. In the context of that sentence, it's more than clear that redistribution means from wealthier to poorer households. However, Ellen's comment is something to be celebrated. Here she acknowledges that progressive spending does not have to follow progressive taxation - something she would not consider in the RFC and related discussions about the graph that juxtaposed top marginal tax rates and economic growth.

Fair Tax

Thanks for addressing my request! Have there been any recent proposals regarding a flat tax? Cmckain (talk) 00:37, 7 February 2014 (UTC)

@Cmckain: There are many organizations and politicians calling for various flat tax proposals in the United States, but here are a few bills that are in the 113th Congress: H.R. 1040, H.R. 1569, H.R. 259, S. 173. I believe HR1040 is the traditional Armey / Forbes Hall–Rabushka flat tax (aka Freedom Flat Tax, aka Freedom and Fairness Restoration Act).

Request for suggestion

Hi there, Morphh, I hope you're doing well !

I noticed you reverted another user's edits to the article I brought to WP:GA quality, Beck v. Eiland-Hall.

Perhaps you could suggest alternate wording to describe the argumentation style of the commentator, which would be to your satisfaction?

Perhaps something like, "asks guests to disprove an imagined assertion", or something like that?

Or maybe we should just leave the lede intro sect as it is right now, in its present WP:GA quality version?

Thank you for your interest helping to further improve the quality of this WP:GA rated article,

— Cirt (talk) 19:07, 7 February 2014 (UTC)

@Cirt:, I'll try to think about how to reword it, but it may be difficult for the lead and perhaps best to leave it out. It would need to be both brief and neutral, and using a short out-of-context sound bite would be difficult. In addition, there would need to be proper phrasing that the example represents a point of view regarding the argument style. Morphh ^(talk) 19:42, 7 February 2014 (UTC)

If you could suggest some sample text to maybe use to add to lede, that'd be appreciated, otherwise, I'm fine leaving the current lede intro text as is now. — Cirt (talk) 19:43, 7 February 2014 (UTC)

Thanks for the note, and respect to you as well

Thanks for the note. Yes, I also didn't mean to imply that you were assuming bad faith or anything like that. I like conversations like ours. I probably seem really manic writing as much as I have—this is just one article after all—but the underlying issues do interest me. I probably can't add much more to what I've said, and I'll have to admit that there is no dominating reason to support my principles over yours. Obviously we both agree that we should reflect the current state of scholarship (where it exists), but we don't agree on how best to do that. I have some favoured principles, and, if I'm understanding correctly, you favour a more intuitive, common sense survey of the reliable sources: We can divide up claims into "subjective" vs. "objective" by use of our common sense. I saw your recent question on the NPOV talk page. I think if you go through the discussions in the archives (say from 2010 onwards to the end of 2012), you can see that our debate has taken various guises: Most editors have this sense of what it means for something to be subjective vs. objective (sometimes they use other terms for this as well), and many of these think that this is very useful for determining how we assert statements. But then many others disagree. I guess ours is just another chapter in this unsettled matter. I completely respect your manner of discussion and your fundamental positions. --Atethnekos (Discussion, Contributions) 21:26, 12 February 2014 (UTC)

Hi, I have no objection to the way you tweaked my comment at the Neutralzone, and I'm not miffed just passing on an FYI.... it probably should have run it by me first. As I said, I'm not mad and the change is fine (I officially approve), just don't want you to step on procedural landmine when tweaking someone else's remarks.

IP block exempt

{{unblock|1=It appears I may need a local IP block exempt. I got stuck in an open proxy block by using a hotel wireless (which I'll be stuck on for the next 7 weeks). They got me working at Wikimedia, but not Wikipedia (though I can now edit my talk page). Please help, see https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Steward_requests/Global_permissions#Global_IP_block_exempt_for_Morphh }}

IP block exempt

I have granted your account an exemption from IP blocking. This will allow you to edit through full blocks affecting your IP address when you are logged in.

Please read the page Wikipedia:IP block exemption carefully, especially the section on IP block exemption conditions.

Note in particular that you are not permitted to use this newly-granted right to edit Wikipedia via anonymous proxies, or disruptively. If you do, or there is a serious concern of abuse, then the right may be removed by any administrator.

Appropriate usage and compliance with the policy may be checked periodically, due to the nature of block exemption, and block exemption will be removed when no longer needed (for example, when the block it is related to expires).

I hope this will enhance your editing, and allow you to edit successfully and without disruption. Please advise me when your course has ended so I can remove the flag. Spartaz ^Humbug! 22:16, 5 April 2014 (UTC)

Thanks - will do. If you can set the expiration now, I will no longer require the exemption after May 2014, so 1 June 2014 would be fine. Morphh ^(talk) 22:34, 5 April 2014 (UTC)

Replaceable fair use File:Adam smith note.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Adam smith note.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:

1. Go to the file description page and add the text {{di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}} below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing <your reason> with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
2. On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Cloudbound (talk) 20:46, 7 April 2014 (UTC)

Motto of the Day Help Request April 2014

Today's motto...

In creation of one essence and soul.

If one member is afflicted with pain,
Other members uneasy will remain.

If you have no sympathy for human pain,
The name of human you cannot retain.

Nominate one today!

Motto of the Day (WP:MOTD) is in a state of emergency and really needs your help! There are not enough editors who are reviewing or nominating mottos at Wikipedia:Motto of the day/Nominations/In review, and this probably means that you will notice a red link or “This space for rent” as our mottos for the next weeks and months.

Your revert

I implemented the July 2014 consensus. The fact that a current active discussion wants to review that consensus, is a contra-indication to apply reverts either way. --Francis Schonken (talk) 15:08, 22 October 2014 (UTC)

The prior version represented a long established consensus of a policy (see WP:CONLEVEL), which typically requires higher standard of participation and consensus for changes. The July 2014 link did not contain such participation or discussion on the merits of the change.

References

Thank you for contributing to Wikipedia. Remember that when adding content about health, please only use high-quality reliable sources as references. We typically use review articles, major textbooks and position statements of national or international organizations (There are several kinds of sources that discuss health: here is how the community classifies them and uses them). WP:MEDHOW walks you through editing step by step. A list of resources to help edit health content can be found here. The edit box has a built-in citation tool to easily format references based on the PMID or ISBN. We also provide style advice about the structure and content of medicine-related encyclopedia articles. The welcome page is another good place to learn about editing the encyclopedia.

Abuse of Wikipedia for advertsing

Hello, I'm Jytdog. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions to Elysium Health have been undone because they appeared to be promotional. Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" are against Wikipedia policy and not permitted; Wikipedia articles should be written objectively, using independent sources, and from a neutral perspective. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you. Jytdog (talk) 17:04, 9 January 2018 (UTC)

Edit war warning

Your recent editing history at Elysium Health shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

Payroll taxes

Payroll taxes don't come out of your paycheck; they come out of your employer as a tax wedge. They're basically like raising the wages your employer pays, but not giving that to you.

If Social Security's payroll FICA was 100% directed at payrolls for those earning over $1M, the *consumer* would pay for it. It actually raises the basic cost of labor regardless of revenue (unlike taxes on corporate profits), thus must be diffused into price.John Moser (talk) 03:31, 5 July 2019 (UTC)

@Bluefoxicy: One could argue that all taxes are born by the end consumer while another that the worker bears the entire burden via lower wages, but that is a matter of tax incidence. Wherever the ultimate burden falls, the payroll tax is widely described as a tax on wages that is split between employer and worker. A 12.4% Social Security tax (each pay 6.2%) and a 2.9% Medicare tax (each pay 1.45%). FICA is clearly visible as a tax coming out of the American's paycheck on each pay stub.

2019 US Banknote Contest

	US Banknote Contest
	November-December 2019
There are an estimated 30,000 different varieties of United States banknotes, yet only a fraction of these are represented on Wikimedia Commons in the form of 2D scans. Additionally, Colonial America, the Confederate States, the Republic of Texas, multiple states and territories, communities, and private companies have issued banknotes that are in the public domain today but are absent from Commons. In the months of November and December, WikiProject Numismatics will be running a cross-wiki upload-a-thon, the 2019 US Banknote Contest. The goal of the contest is to increase the number of US banknote images available to content creators on all Wikimedia projects. Participants will claim points for uploading and importing 2D scans of US banknotes, and at the end of the contest all will receive awards. Whether you want to claim the Gold Wiki or you just want to have fun, all are invited to participate. If you do not want to receive invitations to future US Banknote Contests, follow the instructions here

Is MyHeritage a reliable source?

Good evening Morphh,

I hope you're having a fantastic Friday today!

I'm sorry for taking a few minutes out of your time, but I will start off by mentioning we've never worked together on any projects in the past. I've noticed recently you've previously commented on the Talk:MyHeritage page before, and my question is would you consider MyHeritage a reliable source?

I was looking at the site and noticed there was a document on the site (I can't see access it, but I must imagine I could use it to good use for a page), which I was planning to use it for the Carlos Felipe de Habsburgo page under the family heading of the page. Here's the MyHeritage website I was looking at.

Thanks again for taking the time to read into my thread and I hope to hear back!

Sincerely, JayzBox (talk) 15:24, 9 April 2021 (UTC)

@JayzBox: It depends on what the source goes to. MyHeritage can be a reliable source for MyHeritage, if supporting a statement regarding their company. So it would be fine to find them sourced in the MyHeritage article for example, or one of their partners or services to reference something about the company. It could also probably be a reliable source if referencing a document on the site. Both of these instances would be primary sources though, so not preferred, if a reliable secondary source is available. If the link to MyHeritage is to an online tree or what looks like in your example, a search query, then no, I would not consider that a reliable source. MyHeritage is has documents, census, birth records, death records, etc, that could be reliable primary sources, but it also includes user generated family trees. These would not be reliable sources to support the genealogy of a person. Morphh ^(talk) 21:52, 10 April 2021 (UTC)
