If you want to characterize those that want to live off of taxpayer
money as minorities, Yes, I'll put them in a bad light. But, you can't
call that racism. I write that big check every quarter, knowing there
are people out there enjoying the life of leisure on OPM. I assume most
people get their check and pay little attention to what the didn't get.
They don't need to save it up for three months just to see go.
My subject lately is a person with a family working near me,
collecting unemployment and food stamps, with both the husband and wife
working at side jobs for cash. All that's bad enough, but now they are
planning a cruise to the Bahamas. It seems like even you would not think
it is good for a family that can't afford to feed their own children,
should waste their money on a Cruise Boat to the Bahamas.
Those are the minority I want cut off.

Not necessarily, racial/ethnic minorities may or may not be part of
that group, but it would be racist if I didn't include them. We don't
want to favor one group over another do we. Or do we?
How do we get a subset of people to conform to the majority and do
the things the majority does to get become taxpaying citizens? The
answer is not just throwing benefits at them. The hardworking taxpayers
have spent 22 Trillion dollars fighting the war on poverty in the last
50 years. The poverty rate was 15% in 1967 versus 14.5% in 2014.
I know the simple answer is to have a job and live on less then you
earn. But that's not the hardest hurdle. The hardest hurdle is changing
the mindset of either having no shame about living on OPM* or having no
interest in saving for the future or not thinking you can't live without
the latest smartphone, car, dvd players, or eating at a restaurant 3
times a week. It's all about education, but, if you don't use what you
learn, that education, isn't.
Mikek

*OPM = Other Peoples Money, in this reference, hardworking taxpayer
money given freely because of the of the threat of jail.

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?

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.

Hmm... what have I miss, I lowered my prices in an effort to keep
the customers I had for the last 12 years, and earned between $15k and
$20K less that year.
Even two years later I have people stopping to ask me where that boat
is, they want that cheaper shrimp. They think I'm a rip off, because
they bought it cheaper before, from that guy that didn't pay federal
taxes. The free market self corrects prices. Are there anomalies, sure.
Here we have Panama City and Panama City Beach, just a bridge away
from each other. The beach shrimp prices are much higher, I hear from my
customers 40% more is a reasonable quote. They can charge that because
their customers are more tourist related than mine. They can get people
leaving for home, and they pay the higher prices, because they are
there. They also have higher expenses on the beach, so they need to
charge a little more.
I get my share of the beach goers though, because my lower prices
brings them over the bridge.

One corporate thing that got to me, is the cellphone industry. Years
ago I had an ABC cellphone, the base price was $39.95 per month. The
final cost after taxes and other government charges was about $51. XYZ
company came out with a base price of $36.95 per month, I switched to
reward them for their lower price. When I got the first XYZ bill It was
actually more then the ABC bill. The &^%$* company had two additional
XYZ charges. It was $3 more instead of $3 less. I was ****ed and started
a government complaint form but never completed it. Almost two years
later something came up with a bill and I raised this issue, they
removed whatever charge I was complaining about. It was like "ya, we did
wrong, let's just quickly and quietly solve any issues you may have".

Mikek

I would post names, but I don't remember who the offender was, AT&T,
Sprint, Sprint/Nextel or Verizon. Although I don't think it was Verizon.
I'm pretty happy with them, easy to work with, I like the
notifications,"hey you have used 75% of your minutes, the billing period
ends on the 2nd" if we need to cut back we can. Nice bill, I can easily
breakout business use from personal.

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?

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.

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.

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.

http://www.teacherportal.com/teacher-salaries-by-state/

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?

Prices are dictated by supply and demand - profits have nothing to do with it.* Economics 101.* Businesses can choose to use those profits in many ways - some that can benefit their employees.* ESOPs and stock options, for example.* Home Depot made a lot of blue-collar workers a lot of money in its infancy with this method.
