Whew!!
That was a lot to grasp. Liberals will be stumped!! The average person has no idea how much is actually taken from them for taxes. If they even gave a shi*, then they would have been to the first tea party!!

Do any of the libtoids realize
that after awhile they're not collecting any money? After awhile you have no money and you just stop spending or earning. These taxes are actually competing with each other with limited results. How many times do people turn down over time because they do the math and they'll get less than fifty cents on the dollar for every extra hour so why bother?

Up From Last year
This cant be right. You must mean, up from last year "only for those that make over $250K/yr". Where's the media? Oh, I know, patching their well worn knee pads.

Then here in the socialist state of
Maine the brilliant legislature and guv have expanded and raised the sales tax to include everything from haircuts to tickets for carnivals.
On top of the new and higher fed taxes, they are actually talking about adding another .11 onto each gal. of gas here.
This won't stop until people wake up and realize they actually have to educate themselves on candidates and their history and voting records and where they stand on the issues. Right now, the culture is so celebrity obsessed, they'll vote for anyone they think is cool.

A different view
Loyal Democrats will see the taxes on cigarettes, been, and distilled spirits as their patriotic duty, so they will smoke and drink more, hopefully dying off before they vote again, or at least being too drunk to find the polling stations.

I don't know where you got the 20% from but Iv'e known all along it was higher than the 9.5 reported. I'm just one of those not listed as unemployed by the state because I was self employed until the osamaone obamaone lord imapieceofshitah himself showed up as a US senator and destroyed the housing market. I bet there's a bunch more out here too.

My unemployment forecast to Mica, Martinez and Nelson was between 24 to 30% nationwide after c&tax but the way osama obama is going about destroying everything he glances at much less touchs it may well hit into the 40 to 50% range.

Michael Jackson Died!
Gunny, My understanding is that "we, the people" do not have the rights/means to impose term limits on politicians! It has to come from CONgress. Is that correct? Some elected officials have made pledges to not run again but there is no penalty if they change their minds and win. Many in CONgress have never held jobs in the private sector. Senator Byrd has been in office since 1958 or something and they just reelected him! He`s ill and 94 ....
I worked for Boeing in the NW. Read recently they are threatening to move the 787 production line out of WA state to SC because of union demands. They are indoctrinating children to feel guilty if they exhale. Soon the air out of all our orifices will be taxed and how!

The taxes are a pox
The taxes proposed by the libs are such that they will hit hardest the poor and those on fixed incomes; the groups that profess to care about.
Tax on food, who does that hurt?
Tax on gas, who does that hurt?
Tax on utilities driving the cost up, who does that hurt?
Get the picture?

Something You Said,
"The telephone tax was enacted to pay for the Spanish-American War and ran for about 90 years before dying and ONLY after the people protested...vigorously."
A short time ago I called AT&T business office and asked what each tax on my bill was for.
Two of them came out like this;
1. Was a tax the lady on the other end did not know what it was for;
2. One tax was to provide phone service for "underpriviledged". I read that welfare recipients.

Ivan: Gone but still here
So . . . it's finally happened. My original identity no longer recognized. All my posts expunged.
I've been banned from Townhall.com. And that leaves me with just one question - What took you so long to prove what I've pointed out repeatedly: Conservatives love freedom of speech -- but only for themselves.
The larger truth is that American right-wingers hate all forms of freedom.
It's conservatives who are ever eager to suppress differing opinions, words, writings and art -- from the McCarthy witch-hunts and the rock 'n' roll record burnings of the '50s to their perennial demands for bans on certain books, movies, television programs and public gatherings; for the firing of teachers and professors, the jailing of "communists," anti-war protesters and doctors who perform abortions.
I could continue to return here under various sock puppets as I've done now, and continue to berate and abuse you un-American, racist b4stards, but I'm not going to waste my time. By silencing my voice once you have more than proved my point.
But just because I won't be posting, don't imagine me to be gone. I first dropped by here the day after Barack Hussein Obama was elected president to see whether the sewer-scum who infest Townhall.com would be so stupid as to threaten his life or suborn armed insurrection. As it happened, I caught sewer-scum-in-chief Gunster doing the latter -- twice -- and forwarded his illiterate posts to the FBI. I've no way of knowing whether they followed up or not, but I suspect they did, since the language in Gunny's psycho rants became immediately more moderate. I think he got the word.
So remember, rightoids . . . you may not hear from me, but I’ll be here, watching, ever ready to drop a dime on you traitors whenever you step out of line. Count on it.
-Ivan
