They’ve begun to interview his girlfriend. They’ve learned quite a bit about Stephen Paddock’s past and preparation, but there is still no explanation for why he damaged and \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2017/10/06/what-we-know-about-california-victims-of-the-las-vegas-shooting/\">destroyed so many lives\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ken Russell is a retired wildlife biologist who lives in the same neighborhood where the Las Vegas shooter lived, in the sunny retirement community of Sun City Mesquite. That the carnage on Sunday night was carried out by someone living there was a shock, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is a quiet neighborhood,” Russell said on Monday, as he walked among palm trees, cacti and houses of stucco and tile. “All of them up here in Sun City are quiet. People are too old to make any commotion.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That was the first surprise for investigators: that a 64-year-old man, an apparently wealthy retiree, a former postal worker, IRS agent and government auditor, would commit mass murder. He doesn’t fit the mass shooter profile.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignleft\">‘That he did what he did, it just doesn’t compute.’\u003cbr>\n\u003ccite>Eric Paddock,\u003cbr>\nbrother of Stephen Paddock\u003c/cite>\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>Others in Mesquite spotted Paddock playing cards and video poker in the local casinos, betting and winning big, stopping in at the community center or picking up coffee at Starbucks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>His younger brother also said he was puzzled by the rampage.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“He was a guy who took his little brother camping,” Eric Paddock told reporter Amy Green at NPR station WMFE in Orlando. “He was a guy who loved his women. He was a guy who played video poker. He was a guy who worked his ass off and made my family — helped make my family and my mother affluent. He was a guy who, you know, was nice to my kids.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That he did what he did, it just doesn’t compute,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The shooter made millions in investments in real estate, according to public records in California, Nevada, Texas and Florida.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=”nm3p2pryMsUt8qckniJIBFMlpUY3yDWg”]And he loved gambling and guns. Paddock had elite status at bigger casinos in Las Vegas, according to industry sources who insisted on anonymity to protect their jobs. Police say he bought dozens of guns and thousands of rounds of ammunition and explosives typically used for target shooting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Three times earlier this year, he drove the 40 miles from Mesquite to St. George, Utah, to Dixie GunWorx, where gun seller Chris Michel found him more engaging than most.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“He came in and everything he wore, his demeanor, the person that he was, the openness, with his personality,” said Michel. “He was the guy next door that would, you know, mow people’s lawns for you. He would be the guy handing out ice cream cones on the corner when the bus comes to a stop to the kids. He would be the one that all of us would have taken to the family barbecue and invited. He just, he was an open guy to us.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Paddock easily passed the background checks he needed to buy a shotgun from Michel and other weapons from other dealers. So far, police have revealed no evidence of illegal possession of firearms. Some neighbors in Nevada, Texas and Florida who have spoken with reporters simply say Paddock and his girlfriend kept to themselves, and didn’t do anything alarming.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“He was very trusting to complete strangers,” said Sharon Judy, who lived next door to the home Paddock owned in Melbourne, Florida. She says he handed her a key, asking her to keep an eye on the house and borrow any tools she might be able to use.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s really scary to think this is a guy next door,” she told NPR’s Pam Fessler. “Perfectly normal. On nobody’s radar. Nobody’s reason to think anything of any of it. And then all of a sudden he goes out and does something like this.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Police are similarly puzzled. Clark County Sheriff Joe Lombardo said the shooting and the evidence gathered so far show meticulous planning by a disturbed and dangerous man.\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">VIDEO: provides an update, including a detailed timeline of the incident that occurred on Oct 1. \u003ca href=\"https://t.co/wo8LVCxkjX\">https://t.co/wo8LVCxkjX\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>— LVMPD (@LVMPD) \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/LVMPD/status/915769732287971328?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">October 5, 2017\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Paddock used Airbnb to rent a condo in a downtown Las Vegas high-rise \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2017/10/05/555925722/shooter-may-have-considered-other-targets-in-chicago-and-las-vegas\">during a different music festival the weekend before\u003c/a> he fired upon the Route 91 Harvest Festival. And someone named Stephen Paddock booked a room at a Chicago hotel overlooking Grant Park during Lollapalooza there in August, though the hotel says no one by that name actually stayed at the hotel then.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Two law enforcement officials tell NPR that an analysis of Paddock’s electronic devices show he researched hotels around Fenway Park and a site in downtown Boston.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What we know is Stephen Paddock is a man who spent decades acquiring weapons and ammo, and living a secret life, much of which will never be fully understood,” Lombardo said on Wednesday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The sheriff speculated that the shooter may have had an accomplice: “You’ve got to make the assumption he had to have some help at some point.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The shooter’s girlfriend, Marilou Danley, said she had no hints of the rampage. Her attorney, Matthew Lombard, read \u003ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/2017/10/04/us/statement-transcript-marilou-danley.html\">a statement\u003c/a> from Danley, which said in part:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>“I knew Stephen Paddock as a kind, caring, quiet man. I loved him and hoped for a quiet future together with him. He never said anything to me or took any action that I was aware of, that I understood in any way to be a warning that something horrible like this was going to happen.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“A little more than two weeks ago, Stephen told me he found a cheap ticket for me to the Philippines and that he wanted me to take a trip home to see my family. Like all Filipinos abroad, I was excited to go home and see family and friends. While there, he wired me money, which he said was for me to buy a house for me and my family. I was grateful, but honestly, I was worried that first, the unexpected trip home, and then the money, was a way of breaking up with me. It never occurred to me in any way whatsoever that he was planning violence against anyone.”\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>This apparent silence, the secret life, also defies another characteristic of mass shooters, says Dr. Reid Meloy, a forensic psychologist at the University of California San Diego Medical School.

They’ve begun to interview his girlfriend. They’ve learned quite a bit about Stephen Paddock’s past and preparation, but there is still no explanation for why he damaged and \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2017/10/06/what-we-know-about-california-victims-of-the-las-vegas-shooting/\">destroyed so many lives\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ken Russell is a retired wildlife biologist who lives in the same neighborhood where the Las Vegas shooter lived, in the sunny retirement community of Sun City Mesquite. That the carnage on Sunday night was carried out by someone living there was a shock, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is a quiet neighborhood,” Russell said on Monday, as he walked among palm trees, cacti and houses of stucco and tile. “All of them up here in Sun City are quiet. People are too old to make any commotion.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That was the first surprise for investigators: that a 64-year-old man, an apparently wealthy retiree, a former postal worker, IRS agent and government auditor, would commit mass murder. He doesn’t fit the mass shooter profile.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignleft\">‘That he did what he did, it just doesn’t compute.’\u003cbr>\n\u003ccite>Eric Paddock,\u003cbr>\nbrother of Stephen Paddock\u003c/cite>\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>Others in Mesquite spotted Paddock playing cards and video poker in the local casinos, betting and winning big, stopping in at the community center or picking up coffee at Starbucks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

He was a guy who played video poker. He was a guy who worked his ass off and made my family — helped make my family and my mother affluent. He was a guy who, you know, was nice to my kids.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That he did what he did, it just doesn’t compute,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The shooter made millions in investments in real estate, according to public records in California, Nevada, Texas and Florida.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>And he loved gambling and guns. Paddock had elite status at bigger casinos in Las Vegas, according to industry sources who insisted on anonymity to protect their jobs. Police say he bought dozens of guns and thousands of rounds of ammunition and explosives typically used for target shooting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Three times earlier this year, he drove the 40 miles from Mesquite to St. George, Utah, to Dixie GunWorx, where gun seller Chris Michel found him more engaging than most.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“He came in and everything he wore, his demeanor, the person that he was, the openness, with his personality,” said Michel. “He was the guy next door that would, you know, mow people’s lawns for you. He would be the guy handing out ice cream cones on the corner when the bus comes to a stop to the kids. He would be the one that all of us would have taken to the family barbecue and invited. He just, he was an open guy to us.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Paddock easily passed the background checks he needed to buy a shotgun from Michel and other weapons from other dealers. So far, police have revealed no evidence of illegal possession of firearms. Some neighbors in Nevada, Texas and Florida who have spoken with reporters simply say Paddock and his girlfriend kept to themselves, and didn’t do anything alarming.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“He was very trusting to complete strangers,” said Sharon Judy, who lived next door to the home Paddock owned in Melbourne, Florida. She says he handed her a key, asking her to keep an eye on the house and borrow any tools she might be able to use.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s really scary to think this is a guy next door,” she told NPR’s Pam Fessler. “Perfectly normal. On nobody’s radar. Nobody’s reason to think anything of any of it. And then all of a sudden he goes out and does something like this.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Police are similarly puzzled. Clark County Sheriff Joe Lombardo said the shooting and the evidence gathered so far show meticulous planning by a disturbed and dangerous man.\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">VIDEO: provides an update, including a detailed timeline of the incident that occurred on Oct 1. \u003ca href=\"https://t.co/wo8LVCxkjX\">https://t.co/wo8LVCxkjX\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>— LVMPD (@LVMPD) \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/LVMPD/status/915769732287971328?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">October 5, 2017\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Paddock used Airbnb to rent a condo in a downtown Las Vegas high-rise \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2017/10/05/555925722/shooter-may-have-considered-other-targets-in-chicago-and-las-vegas\">during a different music festival the weekend before\u003c/a> he fired upon the Route 91 Harvest Festival. And someone named Stephen Paddock booked a room at a Chicago hotel overlooking Grant Park during Lollapalooza there in August, though the hotel says no one by that name actually stayed at the hotel then.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Two law enforcement officials tell NPR that an analysis of Paddock’s electronic devices show he researched hotels around Fenway Park and a site in downtown Boston.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What we know is Stephen Paddock is a man who spent decades acquiring weapons and ammo, and living a secret life, much of which will never be fully understood,” Lombardo said on Wednesday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The sheriff speculated that the shooter may have had an accomplice: “You’ve got to make the assumption he had to have some help at some point.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The shooter’s girlfriend, Marilou Danley, said she had no hints of the rampage. Her attorney, Matthew Lombard, read \u003ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/2017/10/04/us/statement-transcript-marilou-danley.html\">a statement\u003c/a> from Danley, which said in part:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>“I knew Stephen Paddock as a kind, caring, quiet man. I loved him and hoped for a quiet future together with him. He never said anything to me or took any action that I was aware of, that I understood in any way to be a warning that something horrible like this was going to happen.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“A little more than two weeks ago, Stephen told me he found a cheap ticket for me to the Philippines and that he wanted me to take a trip home to see my family. Like all Filipinos abroad, I was excited to go home and see family and friends. While there, he wired me money, which he said was for me to buy a house for me and my family. I was grateful, but honestly, I was worried that first, the unexpected trip home, and then the money, was a way of breaking up with me. It never occurred to me in any way whatsoever that he was planning violence against anyone.”\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>This apparent silence, the secret life, also defies another characteristic of mass shooters, says Dr. Reid Meloy, a forensic psychologist at the University of California San Diego Medical School. Meloy’s research shows that some kind of grievance — big or small — can be a triggering event. The grievance can spiral into planning and preparing some kind of response.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That’s of course the mystery in this particular case is that there doesn’t yet seem to be any grievance that’s surfaced,” says Meloy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The secretive planning and preparing for the response can end up overshadowing the grievance as it becomes its own motivation. And Meloy says research shows that mass shooters often fuel their excitement by telling somebody something of their plans.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“A number of studies have found that a majority of these individuals that carry out mass murders will communicate their intent to a third party before they do it,” he says. “There is at least one person that knows the path that this individual is on. There does not seem to be any evidence of that yet in this case, which would be an anomaly.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s an assessment shared by the sheriff on Wednesday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Anything that would indicate this individual’s trigger point and that would cause him to do such harm — we haven’t understood it yet,” said Lombardo.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Four days after the shooter carried out his meticulous plan, investigators have learned some things about Stephen Paddock.

That certainly hasn’t helped there.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pointing to Chicago to suggest that gun laws don’t work is not a new talking point — Trump \u003ca href=\"http://www.politifact.com/illinois/statements/2016/nov/03/donald-trump/trump-no-marksman-when-aiming-chicago-gun-laws/\">claimed\u003c/a> Chicago had “the toughest gun laws in the United States” in a 2016 presidential debate; his fellow Republican candidate Chris Christie \u003ca href=\"http://www.ontheissues.org/2016/Chris_Christie_Gun_Control.htm\">likewise pointed to Chicago\u003c/a> as a place with high crime despite tight gun laws.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=”n44byCsO2zR5ykRwe4wwNb8npsPBdV59″]And the rhetoric goes beyond politicians.

It also packs the added rhetorical punch of being closely linked to President Barack Obama, whose actions Trump has worked hard to undo.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But while gun violence in Chicago is high, the rest of this common talking point doesn’t really hold water.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>High crime and tough gun laws\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s true that there were \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/2017/01/07/508722463/gun-deaths-in-chicago-why-is-this-happening\">more than 4,000 shooting victims\u003c/a> in Chicago in 2016. It’s also true that Chicago has suffered a massive amount of gun crime recently. In 2016, homicides in Chicago sharply rose, mostly as a result of gun homicides, as the University of Chicago crime lab \u003ca href=\"https://urbanlabs.uchicago.edu/attachments/store/2435a5d4658e2ca19f4f225b810ce0dbdb9231cbdb8d702e784087469ee3/UChicagoCrimeLab+Gun+Violence+in+Chicago+2016.pdf\">found in a January report\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gun homicides in the city rose by 61 percent between 2015 and 2016. That helped make the gun homicide rate in Chicago particularly huge compared with similar cities. The rate was 25.1 per 100,000 residents in 2016, compared with 14.7 in Philadelphia and just 2.3 in New York.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It also had a relatively high number of guns recovered — 243 per 100,000 residents. That’s roughly on par with Philadelphia and much higher than Los Angeles or New York.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But it’s not true that Chicago has the toughest gun laws in the country, as other \u003ca href=\"http://www.politifact.com/illinois/statements/2017/oct/03/sarah-huckabee-sanders/chicago-toughest-gun-control-claim-shot-full-holes/\">fact-checkers\u003c/a> have also repeatedly found.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignleft\">‘We generally think of California as having the strongest gun laws in the country.’\u003cbr>\n\u003ccite>Hannah Shearer,\u003cbr>\nStaff Attorney, Law Center to Prevent Gun Violence\u003c/cite>\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>It \u003cem>is\u003c/em> true that Illinois has tougher gun laws than many other states. The state is one of seven that requires licenses or permits to buy any firearm, and it’s one of five that requires waiting periods for buying any firearm. The Law Center to Prevent Gun Violence, which tracks gun laws nationwide, has given the state a B+ for its gun laws.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Chicago itself has some tough laws — there is an assault-weapons ban in Cook County, for example. But it’s not true that Chicago has the strictest gun laws in the country. At one point, it did have much tougher laws — it had banned handguns in the city limits, but a \u003ca href=\"http://smartgunlaws.org/gun-laws/the-second-amendment/the-supreme-court-the-second-amendment/dc-v-heller/\">2008 Supreme Court ruling\u003c/a> declared that ban unconstitutional, and a \u003ca href=\"http://www.cnn.com/2010/CRIME/06/28/us.scotus.handgun.ban/index.html\">2010 ruling\u003c/a> reaffirmed that. The city also had a gun registry program since 1968, but ended it in 2013 when the state \u003ca href=\"http://www.nytimes.com/2013/09/12/us/chicago-city-council-reluctantly-ends-gun-registry.html\">passed a law allowing\u003c/a> the concealed carry of weapons.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We generally think of California as having the strongest gun laws in the country,” said Hannah Shearer, a staff attorney at the Law Center to Prevent Gun Violence. “The whole state’s laws are pretty strong.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The center has given California an A rating and ranks it No. 1 in terms of the tightness of its gun laws.

It’s also true that Chicago has suffered a massive amount of gun crime recently. In 2016, homicides in Chicago sharply rose, mostly as a result of gun homicides, as the University of Chicago crime lab \u003ca href=\"https://urbanlabs.uchicago.edu/attachments/store/2435a5d4658e2ca19f4f225b810ce0dbdb9231cbdb8d702e784087469ee3/UChicagoCrimeLab+Gun+Violence+in+Chicago+2016.pdf\">found in a January report\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gun homicides in the city rose by 61 percent between 2015 and 2016. That helped make the gun homicide rate in Chicago particularly huge compared with similar cities. The rate was 25.1 per 100,000 residents in 2016, compared with 14.7 in Philadelphia and just 2.3 in New York.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It also had a relatively high number of guns recovered — 243 per 100,000 residents.

The city also had a gun registry program since 1968, but ended it in 2013 when the state \u003ca href=\"http://www.nytimes.com/2013/09/12/us/chicago-city-council-reluctantly-ends-gun-registry.html\">passed a law allowing\u003c/a> the concealed carry of weapons.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We generally think of California as having the strongest gun laws in the country,” said Hannah Shearer, a staff attorney at the Law Center to Prevent Gun Violence. “The whole state’s laws are pretty strong.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The center has given California an A rating and ranks it No. 1 in terms of the tightness of its gun laws.

"content": "\u003cp>President Trump and congressional Republicans have pitched their tax plan as a boost for the middle class.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The rich will not be gaining at all with this plan,” Trump \u003ca href=\"http://www.politico.com/story/2017/09/13/trump-rich-people-tax-plan-242671\">told reporters\u003c/a> during a meeting with lawmakers in mid-September.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But analysts at the nonpartisan \u003ca href=\"http://www.taxpolicycenter.org/publications/preliminary-analysis-unified-framework\">Tax Policy Center\u003c/a> who studied the proposal reached a very different conclusion. They predict that nearly three-quarters of the savings from the tax overhaul would go to the top 20 percent of earners — those making more than $149,000. More than half the savings would go to the top 1 percent — people who earn more than $732,800. The tax breaks are even more tilted to the wealthy by the 10th year of the overhaul, when the Tax Policy Center projects nearly 80 percent of the savings would go to the top 1 percent of earners.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Administration officials have tried to discredit the center’s analysis, noting the tax plan is so far just a framework with many of the details still to be filled in by Congress.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“All I can tell you is that no one can make real detailed analysis of the plan yet, because it’s not finished,” White House budget director Mick Mulvaney said Sunday on CNN’s “State of the Union.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Tax Policy Center analysts acknowledge having to make some assumptions as they did their review. They based those assumptions on reasonable sources, including past Republican tax blueprints and the administration’s own April outline. [contextly_sidebar id=”tbMQxje1qZePfC3FUyqtynUOW4nPGvpQ”]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The center has promised to revise its forecast as lawmakers fill in the blanks of the tax plan. But the big picture is not likely to change.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s going to be hard to mold this into something where the middle class is the big winner. And the reason for that, or course, is that the upper-income earners are those that pay the most in taxes,” said Maya MacGuineas, president of the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget. “If you’re going to reform the tax code, a lot of times it’s going to be the people who pay the most taxes who end up with those bigger breaks.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Wins for middle class appear largely indirect\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The tax benefits for the rich in the GOP plan are direct, obvious and easily quantified. Many of the promised benefits for the middle class, on the other hand, are indirect, speculative and uncertain.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For the wealthy, the government is promising to cut their tax bill directly, by offering a lower-income tax rate and by doing away with targeted levies such as the alternative minimum tax and the estate tax. The AMT hits only upper-income taxpayers and the estate tax hits only people with nearly $5.5 million in assets (or nearly $11 million for married couples). The Tax Policy Center says eliminating those taxes provides a direct $678 billion benefit to top earners over the next decade.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many middle-class families would also benefit from a lower-income tax rate, but their savings would be dwarfed by those the wealthy enjoy. The Tax Policy Center estimates the average middle-class taxpayer would get a break of $940 from the GOP plan next year, while a taxpayer in the top 1 percent would save $146,470. For those on the lower rungs of the income ladder, the Republican plan actually boosts the tax rate from 10 to 12 percent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is a GOP tax plan?” tweeted an incredulous Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., on Monday, noting the Tax Policy Center’s projection that nearly 30 percent of middle-class families could see their tax bills rise by decade’s end. “I hope the final details are better than this.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">This is a GOP tax plan?

By highlighting speculative, indirect gains that are supposed to result from economic growth.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is a revolutionary change,” Trump said in announcing the plan in Indiana last week. “The biggest winners will be the everyday American workers as jobs start pouring into our country, as companies start competing for American labor, and as wages start going up at levels that you haven’t seen in many years.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>House Speaker Paul Ryan, R-Wis., makes a similar claim. “This is a once in a lifetime opportunity that is all about more jobs, fairer taxes and bigger paychecks for American families,” Ryan told reporters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Rather than simply promise that the government will cut the tax bill for working families — many of whom pay little income tax already — the GOP is arguing that its tax plan will promote growth, which in turn will boost employment, and over time result in higher wages. Break any link of that chain and the middle-class “winnings” end up in someone else’s pocket.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Cut to corporate tax rate\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A centerpiece of the GOP plan is a deep cut in the corporate tax rate, from 35 percent to 20 percent. The Tax Policy Center estimates that provision, along with repeal of the corporate AMT, would save corporations nearly $2 trillion over the next decade. Where would that money go? Traditionally, it’s been assumed that most of the savings of a corporate tax cut go to business owners or shareholders, who tend to be upper income. But some portion also goes to workers in the form of higher wages. How those spoils are divided determines the big winner when corporate taxes are reduced. [contextly_sidebar id=”RaSpIKeNoRVD0kyTMDeGfcxR5ofphrMU”]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Forecasters at the Congressional Budget Office and the Joint Committee on Taxation, for example, assume that about three-quarters of the savings from a corporate tax cut goes to shareholders, while the remaining one-quarter goes to workers. Until recently, the Treasury Department assumed a similar breakdown, with owners taking the lion’s share and workers receiving about 18 percent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Trump administration argues that a much larger share of corporate tax cuts — 70 percent or more — will ultimately flow to workers. That’s \u003ca href=\"http://www.factcheck.org/2017/09/benefits-corporate-tax-cut/\">far from a consensus view\u003c/a>, but it’s the position advocated by \u003ca href=\"http://www.aei.org/publication/a-spatial-model-of-corporate-tax-incidence/\">Kevin Hassett\u003c/a>, an economist formerly with the conservative American Enterprise Institute who now chairs Trump’s Council of Economic Advisers. If Hassett is correct, that would shift more of the $2 trillion in savings from the corporate tax cut down the income ladder, from wealthy shareholders to middle-class employees.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Standard deduction vs. personal exemptions\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Backers of the GOP plan say many middle- and working-class families would benefit from the near doubling of the standard deduction. That would exempt the first $12,000 of earnings for individuals and $24,000 for couples from income tax. The higher standard deduction would also free many taxpayers from having to itemize, making tax filing simpler. But while Republicans want to expand this tax break, they’re planning to take away many others, including personal and dependent exemptions, which reduce taxable income by $4,050 for each taxpayer, spouse and dependent in a household.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This combination could leave a couple with two children worse off. Their standard deduction would increase by $11,300 (from $12,700 to $24,000). But their four exemptions, totaling $16,200, would disappear, leaving them with more taxable income and a higher tax bill. For couples with three or more children, the situation is potentially worse. This might be offset by a larger child tax credit Republicans have promised, but that depends on details that have not yet been worked out. In addition, taxpayers who continue to itemize would lose their personal exemptions without the offsetting benefit of a larger standard deduction.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Tax Policy Center estimates that boosting the standard deduction will leave an extra $830 billion in taxpayers’ pockets over the next decade, while eliminating personal and dependent exemptions will increase taxes by $1.6 trillion.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>State and local tax deduction\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Republicans have promised to preserve the tax deductions for mortgage interest and charitable giving, along with unspecified tax incentives for retirement savings, work and higher education. Most other tax breaks are on the chopping block, but the only one that lawmakers and the administration have singled out for elimination is the deduction for state and local taxes.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignleft\">‘One of the things we’re trying to do is eliminate lots and lots of deductions.’\u003ccite>Steven Mnuchin, Treasury Secretary\u003c/cite>\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>“One of the things we’re trying to do is eliminate lots and lots of deductions,” Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin told NBC’s “Meet the Press.” “One of those deductions is about getting the federal government out of the business of subsidizing the states.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If state and local taxes were no longer deductible, the federal government would collect an extra $1.3 trillion over the next decade, according to Tax Policy Center. The move would particularly hurt taxpayers in relatively high-tax states, many of which lean Democratic. According to the \u003ca href=\"https://taxfoundation.org/state-and-local-tax-deduction-primer/\">Tax Foundation\u003c/a>, more than half the total value of the deduction is claimed by taxpayers in just six states — California, New York, New Jersey, Illinois, Texas and Pennsylvania.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>With the exception of Texas, all of those are blue states. But as Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., points out, there are many taxpayers in GOP districts who would be unhappy to see the deduction for state and local taxes taken away.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“My guess is you’re going to have 30, 40, 50 Congress members — Republican — who say, ‘I can’t vote for this because it raises taxes on my core constituency,’ ” Schumer said on Sept. 27, the day the plan was released.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>The role of economic growth \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The administration and congressional Republicans describe their tax plan as a key ingredient in the recipe for faster economic growth. They’re counting on that to boost federal revenues.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We believe there will be $2 trillion of additional growth” over the next decade, Mnuchin told ABC’s “This Week.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many independent observers think that’s overly optimistic, especially with the economy near full employment, an aging workforce and an administration determined to limit immigration.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignright\">‘We shouldn’t try to pay for things with wishful thinking.’\u003ccite>Maya MacGuineas, President, Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget\u003c/cite>\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>“We’ve seen a lot of modeling of tax plans before and we’ve seen what’s happened when we’ve reformed the tax code before,” said MacGuineas. “You can grow the economy by — perhaps if it’s done well — a couple of additional tenths-of-a percent of GDP. And that would be great. We should celebrate getting that done. But we should also be realistic and we shouldn’t try to pay for things with wishful thinking.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Tax Policy Center says it expects the GOP plan would have “little macroeconomic feedback effect on revenues over the first decade.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Effect on deficits and debt\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The tax cuts in the GOP proposal would reduce government revenues by trillions of dollars. Some of that would be offset by closing (mostly unspecified) loopholes. But the Tax Policy Center still predicts an extra $2.4 trillion in red ink over the next decade. If Republicans’ promised level of economic growth fails to materialize, all of that would be added to the federal debt.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That worries deficit hawks like Sen. Bob Corker, R-Tenn. He expects to raise some revenue by eliminating tax breaks and through economic growth. But Corker told NBC’s Chuck Todd that he’s not willing to put the balance on the government’s credit card.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If it looks like to me, Chuck, we’re adding one penny to the deficit, I am not going to be for it, OK?” said Corker, \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/2017/09/26/553798939/tennessee-republican-sen-bob-corker-wont-seek-reelection-in-2018\">who is not planning to run for re-election\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>With a narrow two-vote majority in the Senate, Republicans can ill afford further defections.\u003c/p>\n\n",

According to the \u003ca href=\"https://taxfoundation.org/state-and-local-tax-deduction-primer/\">Tax Foundation\u003c/a>, more than half the total value of the deduction is claimed by taxpayers in just six states — California, New York, New Jersey, Illinois, Texas and Pennsylvania.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>With the exception of Texas, all of those are blue states. But as Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., points out, there are many taxpayers in GOP districts who would be unhappy to see the deduction for state and local taxes taken away.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“My guess is you’re going to have 30, 40, 50 Congress members — Republican — who say, ‘I can’t vote for this because it raises taxes on my core constituency,’ ” Schumer said on Sept. 27, the day the plan was released.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>The role of economic growth \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The administration and congressional Republicans describe their tax plan as a key ingredient in the recipe for faster economic growth. They’re counting on that to boost federal revenues.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We believe there will be $2 trillion of additional growth” over the next decade, Mnuchin told ABC’s “This Week.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many independent observers think that’s overly optimistic, especially with the economy near full employment, an aging workforce and an administration determined to limit immigration.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignright\">‘We shouldn’t try to pay for things with wishful thinking.’\u003ccite>Maya MacGuineas, President, Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget\u003c/cite>\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>“We’ve seen a lot of modeling of tax plans before and we’ve seen what’s happened when we’ve reformed the tax code before,” said MacGuineas. “You can grow the economy by — perhaps if it’s done well — a couple of additional tenths-of-a percent of GDP. And that would be great. We should celebrate getting that done. But we should also be realistic and we shouldn’t try to pay for things with wishful thinking.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Tax Policy Center says it expects the GOP plan would have “little macroeconomic feedback effect on revenues over the first decade.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Effect on deficits and debt\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The tax cuts in the GOP proposal would reduce government revenues by trillions of dollars. Some of that would be offset by closing (mostly unspecified) loopholes. But the Tax Policy Center still predicts an extra $2.4 trillion in red ink over the next decade. If Republicans’ promised level of economic growth fails to materialize, all of that would be added to the federal debt.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That worries deficit hawks like Sen. Bob Corker, R-Tenn. He expects to raise some revenue by eliminating tax breaks and through economic growth. But Corker told NBC’s Chuck Todd that he’s not willing to put the balance on the government’s credit card.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If it looks like to me, Chuck, we’re adding one penny to the deficit, I am not going to be for it, OK?” said Corker, \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/2017/09/26/553798939/tennessee-republican-sen-bob-corker-wont-seek-reelection-in-2018\">who is not planning to run for re-election\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Yahoo, now known as Oath, says in late 2016 it forced password changes for all accounts that haven't done so since 2013 and invalidated old security questions and answers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Credit card and bank account data were not taken in the breach, according to the company's investigation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yahoo learned that the already-vast breach had ballooned thanks to new intelligence \"obtained\" recently, after Verizon \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2017/06/13/532772877/verizon-closes-the-yahoo-deal-yahoo-ceo-marissa-mayer-resigns\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">closed its deal\u003c/a> to buy Yahoo. Verizon has folded together the tech giant and previously purchased AOL under the umbrella brand Oath.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Oath spokesman Charles Stewart did not elaborate on how the information was obtained, but said the new intelligence led to a new investigation by the company's security team, completed less than a week ago.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The security industry's favorite adage is that there are two types of companies: those that have been hacked and those that don't know they have been hacked. Among those that know, Yahoo stands out.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Over the course of 2016, Yahoo set and then beat its own record for the largest-ever disclosed data breach. Last September, Yahoo reported an incident affecting 500 million accounts that took place in 2014. Then, in December, came the disclosure of the 2013 hack, which was presented as \"likely distinct.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The 2014 hack was believed to be state-sponsored and later led to \u003ca href=\"https://beta.theglobeandmail.com/news/world/alleged-yahoo-hacker-karim-baratov-pleads-not-guilty-in-us-court/article36071115/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">a trial of a Canadian hacker\u003c/a> and charges \u003ca href=\"https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/us-charges-russian-fsb-officers-and-their-criminal-conspirators-hacking-yahoo-and-millions\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">against Russian government agents\u003c/a> — a relatively rare development for crimes of such caliber. But many questions remain about the 2013 hack and its perpetrators; in fact, the company has been unable to identify the intrusion.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>An internal investigation by Yahoo's board in March found that the company's information security team, senior executives and some legal staff were aware of a state-sponsored hack in 2014, according to a \u003ca href=\"https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1011006/000119312517065791/d293630d10k.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">regulatory filing\u003c/a>, that adds:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\"It appears certain senior executives did not properly comprehend or investigate, and therefore failed to act sufficiently upon, the full extent of knowledge known internally by the Company's information security team. ... However, the Independent Committee did not conclude that there was an intentional suppression of relevant information.\u003cbr>\n\"Nonetheless, the Committee found that the relevant legal team had sufficient information to warrant substantial further inquiry in 2014, and they did not sufficiently pursue it.\"\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Yahoo's then-top lawyer resigned without severance pay as a result, and then-CEO Marissa Mayer lost her 2016 bonus.

Verizon has folded together the tech giant and previously purchased AOL under the umbrella brand Oath.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Oath spokesman Charles Stewart did not elaborate on how the information was obtained, but said the new intelligence led to a new investigation by the company's security team, completed less than a week ago.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The security industry's favorite adage is that there are two types of companies: those that have been hacked and those that don't know they have been hacked. Among those that know, Yahoo stands out.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Over the course of 2016, Yahoo set and then beat its own record for the largest-ever disclosed data breach. Last September, Yahoo reported an incident affecting 500 million accounts that took place in 2014. Then, in December, came the disclosure of the 2013 hack, which was presented as \"likely distinct.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The 2014 hack was believed to be state-sponsored and later led to \u003ca href=\"https://beta.theglobeandmail.com/news/world/alleged-yahoo-hacker-karim-baratov-pleads-not-guilty-in-us-court/article36071115/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">a trial of a Canadian hacker\u003c/a> and charges \u003ca href=\"https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/us-charges-russian-fsb-officers-and-their-criminal-conspirators-hacking-yahoo-and-millions\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">against Russian government agents\u003c/a> — a relatively rare development for crimes of such caliber. But many questions remain about the 2013 hack and its perpetrators; in fact, the company has been unable to identify the intrusion.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>An internal investigation by Yahoo's board in March found that the company's information security team, senior executives and some legal staff were aware of a state-sponsored hack in 2014, according to a \u003ca href=\"https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1011006/000119312517065791/d293630d10k.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">regulatory filing\u003c/a>, that adds:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\"It appears certain senior executives did not properly comprehend or investigate, and therefore failed to act sufficiently upon, the full extent of knowledge known internally by the Company's information security team. ... However, the Independent Committee did not conclude that there was an intentional suppression of relevant information.\u003cbr>\n\"Nonetheless, the Committee found that the relevant legal team had sufficient information to warrant substantial further inquiry in 2014, and they did not sufficiently pursue it.\"\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Yahoo's then-top lawyer resigned without severance pay as a result, and then-CEO Marissa Mayer lost her 2016 bonus.

"content": "\u003cp>New federal guidelines for handling allegations of sexual assault are prompting a range of reactions from school administrators. While many are expressing concerns and vowing to maintain current policy, others are breathing a sigh of relief or scratching their heads in confusion.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Education Secretary Betsy DeVos officially \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/ed/2017/09/07/549197971/betsy-devos-signals-a-pullback-on-campus-sex-misconduct-enforcement\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">rescinded Obama-era rules\u003c/a> last week, replacing them with interim guideline, until new permanent rules can be implemented. The Department of Education’s new “\u003ca href=\"https://www2.ed.gov/about/offices/list/ocr/docs/qa-title-ix-201709.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Q&A on Campus Sexual Misconduct\u003c/a>” may change everything, from how much evidence should be required to prove allegations to how accused students can cross-examine witnesses.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Universities are “scrambling right now” to figure out what it all means, says Kristi Branham, associate professor and director of gender and women’s studies at Western Kentucky University, who serves on a committee that works on education, training and awareness around sexual assault. “This is a tricky area.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’re reading the new guidance carefully,” says Kathleen Salvaty, systemwide Title IX coordinator for the University of California. “I definitely have some questions.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For example, Salvaty says that according to the new guidance, applying “special procedures” in sexual misconduct cases “suggests a discriminatory purpose, and should be avoided.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’m not sure what that means,” Salvaty says. Schools have lots of special procedures for sexual misconduct cases, she says, precisely because they \u003cem>are\u003c/em> different from cases of plagiarism, for example. And many of those are required by federal regulations. Schools are also unclear whether new language in the new guidance means that Title IX rules would no longer apply off campus — at a fraternity, for example.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That is causing some concern and confusion,” Salvaty says. “We’re just not sure what to do.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Others have raised concerns that the new interim guidance contradicts a 2001 directive that was not among those rescinded by DeVos. John Clune, an attorney with Hutchinson Black and Cook LLC, says “the whole purpose of the 2001 guidance is that grievance procedures be prompt and equitable.” But, he says, the new guidance removes time limits on investigations, allows schools to offer an appeal option exclusively to accused students, and permits schools to raise the evidentiary bar from “preponderance of the evidence” to a “clear and convincing” standard, making allegations harder to prove.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That discriminates against complainants,” Clune says. “It certainly undermines the concept … that the proceedings be prompt and equitable.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many schools say they are also confused by mixed signals on whether schools can try informal resolution methods, like mediation; the new guidance allows it, but the 2001 guidance bars it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Skidmore College sociology professor David Karp says he hopes it signals a new opportunity for an alternative process he has been promoting known as restorative justice, a nonadversarial model that focuses on a victim’s healing, and how offenders can contribute to that. Schools have refrained from trying the idea for fear it would be seen as a form of mediation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I do think this is a green light that hasn’t existed before,” Karp says. He cautions that more guidance and training is needed, because “if badly implemented, [RJ] can backfire and cause further harm.” But “I think schools will feel like they have more latitude to explore this as an additional option,” he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Oklahoma Wesleyan University is one school feeling freed up by DeVos’ decision to rescind the Obama-era guidance, which OKWU President Everett Piper calls “nothing short of a disaster.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last year, the university sued the Department of Education, arguing that those guidelines resulted in a “growing number of innocent students being trampled [by the] ‘shoot first, ask questions later’ approach.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Piper says he is relieved now that OKWU will no longer feel pressure to “compromise … students’ rights” and can now “operate … without threat of government intrusion and overreach.” But OKWU has not yet announced any specific change in policies or practices.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Indeed, most schools appear to be holding off on any immediate action. Officials from schools including Harvard, Cornell, the University of Missouri and the University of Michigan say they are still reviewing the new guidance to see what, if any, changes need to be made. And many more have announced they are simply staying the course.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“All of us are continuing as usual,” says Sarah Berg, deputy Title IX coordinator of prevention, training and outreach at the University of Colorado, Denver and the Anschutz Medical Campus.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A letter to the Yale University community says the school has “no plans to deviate” from current Obama-era policies. California State University, Northridge says “Regardless of this new DOE action … we will not waver in our commitment to Title IX and its protections.” Similarly, Washington University in St. Louis says “regardless of decisions at the federal level, we have no intention of turning back on our commitment or resolve.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While that kind of resolve is reassuring to some, it’s frustrating to others.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It is disappointing, but not surprising,” says Joe Cohn, legislative and policy director for the Foundation for Individual Rights in Education, a group that has criticized previous policies as unfair to the accused. Many schools see the new guidance as “designed to go back to the Stone Age,” he says. “But really this is about an adjustment to make sure that both sides’ needs are met, because that wasn’t happening before.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Attorney Andrew Miltenberg of Nesenoff & Miltenberg LLP, who represents dozens of accused students, says the “pushback” from universities is unfortunate. “It’s a stubborn ‘we’re still going to do it our way,’ ” he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While the interim guidance is technically just a recommendation, not a binding rule, Miltenberg says schools that stick to old policies do so at their own peril. He says DeVos’ recent comments, and her decision to rescind the old guidance, will be a big boost to accused students’ lawsuits.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s a significant acknowledgement that there is a problem in [that] process,” says Miltenberg. “It’s a great thing to say to a judge that ‘before last week, you didn’t have to believe that there might be inherent bias throughout the process, but now those arguments carry much more weight. The secretary of the Department of Education publicly announced those very things.’ ”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Miltenberg rejects the notion that the new guidance causes chaos or confusion, or even what he calls the “false hysteria” that the new guidance represents a setback for rape victims.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This constant refrain is an attempt to create a … big lie,” he says. “It’s like if you say it loud enough and often enough, people will believe it.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ultimately, Miltenberg says, real change will require not only new policies but also a shift in who is administering them on campuses.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The reality is that most of the people that I’ve come in contact with as part of any school’s Title IX apparatus have some sort of victimcentric view, or previous work history, or something in their lives that I think makes them unable to be as impartial and objective as someone should be,” Miltenberg says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Title IX administrators deny any bias in their work, but they don’t dispute how fervently they want to maintain current policies. “Everyone I know who does this work … wants to hold on to this process, because we’ve really put our careers into this,” says Berg. “We’re really proud of where we’ve gotten. So to have someone essentially gut that policy would be really painful.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Copyright 2017 NPR. To see more, visit http://www.npr.org/.\u003c/p>\n\n",
