The talk show guy here in town was going off on Sen. Mark Warner, who voted to keep earmarks -- sacred cows, pork returned to his home district from the billions they overconfiscate from us -- until Congress "could discuss how to cut spending." "They're ALWAYS "discussing" how they're going to, but they never do it. That's what this vote was supposed to be! Everyone agreeing!"
ALSO, Congress is considering letting the Bush tax cuts expire, but only for people who make a million dollars a year or more. Dianne Feinstein said "I don't know any millionaires who need a tax cut, and haven't heard any ask for one." The progressive income tax, a main plank in the Communist Manifesto. A liberal woman on Hannity said she's in the $250,000 a year range, and thinks people who make that much can afford a 3.5% tax increase. Hannity asked her what percentage of people's earnings they should be allowed to keep. 70%? 50%? 40? Because state, local and sales taxes also take our money. She said she wasn't factoring in those other taxes. Because in her mind money comes from the government and goes back to the government. Like rain in the weather cycle, I guess, or souls and heaven.
Congress did not do away with the Form 1099 requirement for businesses, either. $600 or more in trade over a 12-month period requires the form. Privacy? Eh. They NEED to know where your money comes from and where it goes.

I believe it is Jaded Haven, not Jaded Heaven.
Fixed. Thank you.
Thanks for the linkage, I'm honored.
