New York Times Continues Trying to Quantify The Looming 2016 Election Possibility of The Monster Vote…

There are two important ratios to remember 65/35 and 55/45.

♦ First, a variant of the ratio “65/35” shows up in random series of obscure polling questions done by alternative or social media.  Three examples include two Bravo Network broadcasts asking for voter input, and another from data tech “Zip App“.

Outline of Donald Trump's Family Child/Elder Care Proposal…

th_Mother_And_ChildToday in Aston Pennsylvania candidate Donald Trump outlined an innovative plan to bring federal tax policies in line with the needs of today’s families.  The plan is not for the wealthy, but rather specifically targeted to provide the biggest benefit to working and middle-class families.
According to the proposal, the plan is needed because child care expenses are now one of the largest expenses in many families.  This complicates a family’s decision on how to care for young children.
