In my ignorance, I think that 98% of the population of Kenya is Black.
And you want credit for staying with a black family.
Good boy Foad, oh God, this politically correct **** is nuts. I hope you
don't take that wrong. You shouldn't. Anyway, here's your credit.
1 credit to Foad.

We stayed with a black family in Kenya because the woman of the family is
my wife's best friend and was a doctoral colleague of hers. I'm not
looking for "credit" for it; that's just an ignorant statement on your part.

You would not stay with ordinary people.

When I ask, I new he would not, could not respond with real information.
Just like all the other times I've ask him for real information and came

What's "new" with you?

Speaking of banksterism, Last Friday I had a customer that somehow we
moved from welfare cheats to our fiat currency. He did about a 45
minute spiel with not much room for me to interrupt :-)
He's so radical he thinks we should all stop paying taxes, and turn
over our money system.
He is a radical on the subject, but came to it from a different
direction. His thinking is, if we had real money, we could not afford
the welfare we give and we wouldn't have the system that we have.
Another thing was compound interest, he thinks that is terrible.

I don't, in fact I think I'm losing out on a property every month.
Let's see what you think.
My wife and I have worked 40hrs plus for years, paid our taxes, paid
all our bills and managed to save some money. in fact every year we have
done that. It was hard and took a long time. We bought a property and
resold it, the buyer is paying less than interest only, meaning every
month the bill goes up because of the interest plus principal he didn't
pay. I think I deserve interest on the extra money he owes for the
interest he didn't pay. Example: he owes $100,000 the interest for the
month is $750 but he only pays $600, I think I can add the $150 back onto
the principal and charge interest on $100,150 the next month.
My lawyer says I can't, (Florida law?). But you can be sure if the buyer
had the $150 every month, he would be getting interest on it.
What do you think?

Add it to the amount subject to interest. All the credit card companies
do.

You must be talking about corporations.



But, but ... corporations *aren't* people. Or are they?

The right-wing majority on the Supreme Court thinks so.

You're not reading well.

I'm sure you have seen this before,
but, who do you think pays ALL corporate taxes.
Since you don't answer my questions, I'll tell you.
You and your friends pay All corporate taxes, where
do you think they get the money. They get that money from
you, your cellphone bill is increased so the company can pay
it's taxes. Everything you purchase costs more because the
corporation is taxed. I think we would be better of eliminating
corporate taxes, that would provide lower priced products and
create more jobs. The offset would be a higher tax rate, but you could
live on less income.
Hey, I have a great example, I had competition under cutting my
prices by 30%, what I sold for $7.50 they sold for $5.00. Why, one
reason is they didn't pay federal income taxes or FICA taxes. There were
other things, but that's at least 30% of profits.
Mikek



Gosh. A grad of the London School of Economics. Here's a clue...if the
pittance in taxes corporations pay were reduced, prices would not be.
Why? Why, corporate greed, of course.

Next.



You live in an endless circle. Or spiral.



Oh. *You* think prices would be lower if *all* corporations were located
offshore and none of their earnings were subject to U.S. taxes. Right.

That's the giggle of the day.

The few times a month I see Al's show, I don't see him making racist

Are your public
school teachers still among the lowest paid in the nation?

It is certainly not because we are choking off the money we send to
the school boards. We spend over $12,000 per pupil each year (K-12).
If they choose to spend 60% of that money OUTSIDE the classroom, I
blame it on those overeducated assholes who run the school system.

Teachers start at $38,192 with a BA degree and that can go up to $66,
894 for a 9 month teacher with a PhD. If they actually work 12 months,
add another 33%


Teacher pay in Florida is still among the lowest in the nation.

We also have a pretty low cost of living. You can take 7-10% right off
the gross because we do not have an income tax. Housing is cheaper and
you do not have those cold weather expenses.

If they don't want to live there, buy a Kevlar vest and move to DC
where the money is great.


Florida has nice beaches and great fishing. I remember sky-high car
and property insurance rates, grocery prices in Publix higher than
they were in Giant, fundamentalist churches seemingly on every corner,
too many houses with T1-11 siding and no basements, water shortages,
congested and underdeveloped state roads, lousy schools, a lack of
drastically needed social services. Of course, things might have
changed in the last 20 years.

No wonder you like it so much. It's a transplanted rednecker's paradise.

Yet you remember NOTHING about the taxes, eh?

And, yes if they could cut 15% off their cost of doing business,
prices would generally drift down.


I think those cuts in cost would simply slip over to the profit column,
and prices would remain the same.
