I have the Moto X 2014 running Andrdoid 5.0, and it does not compare. The X rarely understands anything I say, even after training multiple times. It's also extremely slow to respond when it does understand. The X takes around 15 seconds to tell me the weather, while the Echo has it right away.

Capital gains tax is mentioned: "I devised a 21st-century tax code that would establish a 14.5% flat-rate tax applied equally to all personal income, including wages, salaries, dividends, capital gains, rents and interest."
Don't forget about the Mountain Meadows Massacre which occurred in the larger context of the "Utah War" about 20 years after your referenced events. http://mountainmeadowsmassacre.com http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mountain_Meadows_massacre http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Utah_War
