Ben Franklin once said, “Nothing is certain except death and taxes.” Equally certain is the constant struggle between conservatives and liberals over how to apply tax policy. In Virginia, Gov. Glenn Youngkin has shown that he is not immune to this struggle — he signed into law a recent and concerning budget proposal which garnered extensive conservative support in a state with a razor thin electorate margin. In doing so, he honored his dubious pledge, aimed largely at conservative voters, to keep Virginia taxes low. While this tax reform is certainly popular among both citizens and enterprising politicians, using taxes — specifically income and property tax — as a means to meet political goals is dangerous for Virginia in the long term. Virginia’s economy and residents would be better served by a tax code that addresses the needs of the economy rather than enterprising politicians.

The Cavaliers (10-1, 0-0 ACC) won back-to-back against MTSU (3-10, 0-0 CUSA) Tuesday and Wednesday night — 3-1 and 3-2, respectively. With their seventh-straight win, Virginia also has now won 10 of their 11 first matches — this has happened only four times in program history, the last being in 2003. With Virginia’s regular season right around the corner, it is vital that the team prepare themselves for strong competition if they want to make a run in the NCAA Tournament this fall. It is a good thing, then, that they have been doing just that.

Virginia kicked off this season bucking recent norms in all the right ways. However, Saturday was a depressing return to frustration for Cavalier football. A squandered halftime lead, a minus-four turnover differential and a flat second half headlined the rough day. The Cavaliers (2-1, 1-0 ACC) look to bounce back on the road at Coastal Carolina for a 2 p.m. Saturday kickoff. The Chanticleers (3-0, 0-0 SBC), are coming off a 28-20 road victory over Temple and will present interesting challenges for Coach Tony Elliott and company.

Now, just over a week after the debate, among the five participants present at the focus group’s first meeting, all five suggested Harris performed better than Trump in the debate, even if each candidates’ performance did not change their voting intention.
