The Senate voted 66 to 20 against a 20 percent withholding tax on income from dividends and interest. Backers warned of heavy paperwork and administrative burden, especially for lower income retirees. Critics argued the tax would seize money owed and delay refunds, while Treasury estimates say unreported dividends cost the nation $900 million yearly. Alternatives include education, better IRS data use, and electronic processing. The piece notes high living costs drive families back to parents as a sobering closing line.

The Art of Civilized Quarrels by Ruth Millett

A psychology professor says married couples may quarrel, but must keep it civil. She offers starter rules: no yelling or icy tones, avoid dragging past disputes, stay on topic, address one problem at a time, avoid walking out or pompous refusals, seek compromise, acknowledge both sides, and aim for understanding rather than total victory. If the quarrel remains civilized, it becomes an argument.
