For someone who's had his hand out all your life, you have a lot of nerve critisizing someone who has worked for benefits. -- x ----Android NewsGroup Reader---- http://usenet.sinaapp.com/ |

You mean the Crown Corporation does not cover any health insurance? Supplemental? All Canadians pay for health care. Some more than others. All pay with a near buck a liter tax on gasoline. And those who pay income tax, at,least 50%. Plus what's the VAT tax in your province? |

How could we be paying a buck a liter taxes? Income tax of 50 per cent? You'd have to make a pretty good income to pay that much. I've paid income tax all my life and never paid that. |

Last trip to BC. Was $1.19 a liter. Add up your taxes, and see what the percentage is. Sorry, meant a buck a gallon. 3.7 liters per gallon. So close to $3.60 a gallon. Probably $2.40 a gallon for US average. Your income is on the low end., so expect low tax rates on your income. |

How much is your pension? How much did you save? You only look at cheap boats, not what you would really like. Impressed with a person you can crew on with a 30' boat. I was a professional Silicon Valley engineer. Most likely a 5x factor salary of a janitor at least. Stock options, not granted to a janitor. They are easy to hire. A good engineer? Much harder to hire. Companies compete on salary, benefits, options, and how interesting the job is. I turned down a job at Sandisk, for a biomedical engineering job, as it was more interesting, then doing the firmware for a SCSI interface memory chip. |

Bilious, obviously, you were a regular Steve Wozniak, except he isn't an ignorant asshole, like you are. And he is talented...and interesting...and not a functional illiterate. Wow...a "professional Silicon Valley engineer..." Golly gee. Gosh. Is that what your business card said? |

There isn't much room to store a decent size boat on a 4000sf lot along with his house, a car, and a couple of out houses. You've heard him complain about how difficult it is to place his little boat in storage. -- x |
