I'm in favor of a 3 tiered flat tax. 5% for those living at or under the poverty line, 10% for the overwhelming majority of the country, and 15% for the "very" wealthy, perhaps those making 500k per year or more. No deductions. No loopholes. No shelters. No deferred taxes. Flat rate right out of your paycheck or profit mar
Okay dammit, that does it, while I am a staunch supporter, Bush has simply crossed the line with this one. He has officially lost my vote.
Yeah, the link works fine. So does this one: Link (Large file, give it time) And guess what, they did not have to be a "photoshop" genius to "create" this video.
Now suffer your consequences in silence! I mean seriously, I just don't what to think of this. At first I laughed, but then it got kinda spooky. I feel like I'm at the dinner table and my dad is telling me to eat my vegetables.
And btw you are as bad as your sister. When replying, do try and keep track of "who" you're replying to. And you drmiler, are worse than my sister. <TD c
Since it is somewhat topical and as I am banned from Tex's post about how elitist people like me encourage welfare, I'd like to make an observation here. To the weak minded I may be an encouragemnet to over spend and therefore pepatuate their life on welfare. But to the right person, my family would be an inspiration to wo
Perhaps you're scared that your children will despise you so much when they're grown that they wont give you the time of day. Fortunately, my parents will probably never need my help, but if they ever did, whats mine is theirs, and
And you think that the benefits we get come easy? That it's a freakin' cake walk? YOU go get shot at and bombed every day, you spend years separated from your home and your family....then you tell me that what we've got comes easy. That is why I apologized and said I was not referring to you, I
Wait, I'm sorry dharmagrl, you are military as well right? Well you are in the same boat as Tex. Why are you we even discussing this? You have benefits that, while well deserved, make this conversation pointless. As my sister pointed out (although later deleted by Tex) your benefits package is such that most civilians could not comprehend. You don't have to worry about health care at retirement, it's provided
This si simple, no one, not drmiler, not baker, not whip, not Tex, not dharmagrl, none of you have addressed the issue of quality of life on 35k. The issue of preparing for your childs continuing education. Link The issue of retirement (well not you Tex): How much do you think you'll need? Here's an art
Yeah, and I have more experience than your sister, and I'm telling you Tex is right. Your sister tangled with me last night, and she backed off. Whatcha got now, dude? My sister was blacklisted and her post deleted, that's different from backing off. <TABLE cellpadding=8 width="95%" ali
Actually, I agree that Bush has been too fiscally liberal. On this we agree, Tex. It's called "buying some black votes."<B
Tex hasnt added to this thread in quite a while, and I'm going to vacate as well. I refuse to argue with a schizophrenic. When presented with facts and when the insults get old and boring, we see what happens, everyone avoids the subject. Now that I've put real numbers up, drmiler and baker h
Damn Sis, you beat me to the punch. I was about to mention the schedule: My kids wake up nearly two hours AFTER I get to work at and arrive home from school one to two hours before me. In reality, they are in the hands of my poorly paid nanny for about three hours out of the day. Again, any insult, any name calling to make a point when none exists. I ask again, will ANYONE address the issue at hand? I mean I am pointing out the real
And they 'love' going in to work with you on Sats so much because you bribe them with unhealthy, expensive, sugary donuts, pizza, and video games. That's not love, that's a pay-off. One that's going to make them FAT and RESENTFUL when they get older. My children love to go to work with me because
But hey, she's gotta have a 'career' right? She's entitled, right? So she pays someone else to care for them, and pays them poorly, I might add. Again, we pay her more than many of you working poor seem to say is quite enough to raise a family on. I've had people tell me that they lived on $16,000.00 pe
Oh, and HAHA @ your wifey slaving away for a measly $10.00 per hour. I'm sure taxes eat up a good chunk of that, as well as benefits. Now lets subtract the $350 you pay that nanny each week. What's that leave her...$100 or so for all her hard work? View the
With someone that is as arrogant AND ignorant as you seem Again sir, I am presenting facts, you have all presented some nice heart warming stories, but only stories. My arrogance is your opinion, but my ignorance is a falsehood you have created, at least on this subject. I am showing you in black and wh
Baker, I apologize in advance if I am blending your comments with drmiler, sorry. I guess I am more or less speaking to both of you on the last post.
This isn't a dispute, eric, this is you openly insulting people. I can't speak for anyone else, but the implication that I am unfit or irresponsible as a parent is about the worst possible insult I can imagine. I don't know that I would have you "spitting teeth", but such an attitude is
Sorry, this link stuff is not working out as well as I planned, I think I have them here now, the two stubs referenced as well as my health insurance card: Link Link <a href="
I have finally figured out to host photos on a website that will allow me to provide you with a link for viewing: Now these are scans that I have made this morning of my mine and my wife's most recent paystubs (censored to discourage the creeps that whip talks about). Now some of you, namely Tex and whip will begin questioning the validity of the s
I feel sorry for your kids, eric, because they have a parent who equates love with money, and thats really, really sad. No, they equate love with the fact that I brought them into this world AFTER I was able to pro
I'm pretty sure you'd be spitting teeth! I raised them with a few more manners than you seem to have. Those manners include settling disputes with having people "spitting teeth"?
No, this makes you an insufferable boor! I also raised 2 kids on an E-3 pay and I'll tell you this much. If you tried spewing your crap at either of my children or talked to "any" of the women here like you have, in front of my boys....I'm pretty sure you'd be spitting teeth! I raised them with a few more manners than you seem to
