'I'm all for boots on the ground folks in public service. I think the highest paid position should be school teacher, the lowest? school administrator. Ask your teacher friends what they think of my idea. Our State pension fund has over 130 billion dollars of unfunded liabilities, that's like two Zion rookies and a basketball movie clip... That train ran off the rails long ago. Our City manager makes more than a US Congressman to manage a City of 75,000 people. Does that seem a good use of taxpayer money? The City of Los Angeles- Nearly three years after city voters approved a $1.2 billion construction program over 10 years to house the homeless, the city has yet to see the first building completed. Average per-apartment costs have zoomed more than $100,000 past prior predictions to an average cost of $531,373 per unit. A cost greater than the median condo price that working folks have to pay. My Client worth over 3 million dollars gets a check for $180,000 from the Safe Act, he doesn't need it but he took it cuz he could. Shame on him, people in need could have used that tax payer money. This shotgun approach of the Federal government giving out money to people who don't need it while people that do go hungry is a horrible use of taxpayer money. Tax cut- My rich clients don't want it. They tell me they have plenty of money. "Give the middle class a tax cut, they're the ones who need it". Vaccine?- my state is so inept and bad at their jobs and gridlocked into politically correct bullshit that the federal government is giving the supply directly to hospitals and pharmacies, publicly traded companies btw to get the job done. I could go on forever with examples of the disrespect politicians and government officials have for hard working folks. The waste and misuse of funds to line their own pockets and those of their cronies is disgusting, the Mafia has nothing on these folks. And no I shouldn't run for office, we taxpayers hire you (not you) to do a job for us and you're failing miserably, be better. Now lets hug it out and get back to card collecting...

As for taxes on cards, When I sold my collection the first time (a big amount for me) I reported every card and cost basis. I just handed the Heritage Auctions detailed commission to my cpa, gave him my card cost basis....and paid tax on several hundred K. I was fortunate... .

They always cost more the second time around. Reminds me of the 14CJ Wagner I sold for $450. While I replaced everything else that's one I just wont do.
