I would be willing to donate my share directly to Bushy.
"Simple Simon" wrote in message ... You're wrong. I never paid dime one in unemployment insurance payments. The companies I worked for were required by law to pay them. I know what you are gonna say. You're gonna claim I would have earned a bigger paycheck if the company did not have to pay unemployment insurance premiums. I maintain that is NOT the case. The companies would simply have pocketed the extra profit. Besides, only fools view unemployment insurance as something everyone who pays should collect. I've got news for you, buddy, insurance only works when everybody in a group pays and a few in a group collect. If everyone collects his 'fair share' said fair share would not be enough to pay the benefits people who really need it expect and deserve. It was never meant to keep some lazy ******* in beer and cigarettes. Instead of receiving 2/3rds of one's normal paycheck one would receive more like 1/50th of it. How some people ever got the idea that insurance is some kind of magic bullet is hard to fathom. I guess one can expect little more from a Canadian, at any rate. S.Simon - actually knows how the system works. "Capt. Mooron" wrote in message ... "Simple Simon" wrote in message | S.Simon - never cashed an unemployment check in my life; | never have and never will. I earn MY keep! Discussed this with a Scottish buddy of mine... he boasted he'd never been on unemployment insurance and had never taken a check for it. I pointed out to him that considering the taxes he paid and the fact the unemployment deduction was taken from his paychecks all thos years... it would be tantamount to refusing to take an insurance payment on your car that someone else ran into and wrecked because you were to proud .... just Plain Stupid! Try not paying a portion of the income Tax and see if your government is too "Proud" to take you to court and seize your money/assets. Your line of thinking is illogical. CM |

... Income taxes can be avoided completely by keeping income below 15K per year. One can live like a king on a sailboat in the Bahamas for less than 15K a year. You had better check that again - although you might not owe any taxes, you have to file if you earned over $7700.- And you've made vague claims of a pension - I thought one needed at least 20 years for a federal pension - or did you get a disability? |

Ten years only needed - State of Floida pension plan.
In spite of rumors to the contrary I never worked for the USPS. I made no income money last year so I didn't have to file any stinkin' federal income tax form. I won't collect any pension or Social Security for about six more years. S.Simon - no longer supports the bloated federal bureaucracy "Jeff Morris" jeffmo@NoSpam-sv-lokiDOTcom wrote in message ...

The diff is that I'm honest about my short journey's You're only honest about your short journeys???? So you admit that you lie about the longer ones (eg - over 3 miles)? TAAaa DAAAAaaaa! Busted!..... Again! Regards Donal -- |

...I also like the line "you better be able to release your mainsheet in an instant." So True, and the real danger of a cat. What? Needing to pay attention to the sails is "real danger?" You've been sailing that cow barn too long, we realize that sail trim makes no difference to such a heavyweight, but most of us have sailboats in order to SAIL. SO.......If you value your life stay away from cats, unless your just a weekend warrior in the local bay or lake with someone looking out 4U. Hmm, comsidering how many cats have made passages to Hawaii, your main claim to fame, this doesn't come over too well CA. Maybe you should consider backing off....

Maybe its happened 5 times in the last 50 years. I'd say its a fair guess that more Coronado's have sunk in the same period. Nah, Coronados rot away at their moorings and end up in the landfill.
