  • I just like the original context of anger and frustration about drug addiction more than country western melancholy.

    I tried wording that in a way that doesn’t sound like a dig at Cash’s version, but that really is how I see the difference. One is just more energetic and in the moment while the other is looking back in resignation and the former is my personal preference. Cash’s version is fine, I just disagree that his is better when both are peak quality for their genres.

    Rich people can buy high end homes that they know will appreciate in value, and their interest rate will be lower because they are wealthy. So if they get a good enough rate they are basically getting a tax break for what they are paying for the house and then selling it for more profit. They can do this because they are wealthy enough to decide on when to make large transactions.

    As a deduction it will have a far higher impact on their taxes because whatever the amount is paid in interest is coming out of their highest tax bracket.

    So if they are paying 10k in interest on a more expensive house becsuse rheir interest rate is lower and the 10k reduced their income taxed at 20+% they will get a far bigger benefit out of it than someone paying 10k at a higher interest rate that might lower their income taxed at 10% and when they sell their house they will get less of an increase from it.
