If you want to pay more, then go right ahead and send an extra $20k to the IRS in April. I'm sure they'd be happy to keep it. |

Your vast estate, Zimmerman like Lobsta' boat, 28' Parker and the rest of your Global Crossing bounty. Oh, and let's not forget your union pension. Surely you are in the top 10% of wage earners. |

Nice job, DB. Fire up a political discussion with a veiled reference to boating. Gee, under this program, I could post, "Do you suppose that if GWB succeeds in running the deficit up to the point where it tanks the whole economy or creates hyper inflation that it will affect boating?" I don't know that such a phony ruse really cuts it. We could get a whole squad of folks arguing that its OK to start 10 threads a day ragging on some individual poster or another because "I based my insults on his choice of boat, lack of boat, or etc......" Notice the results? We've got posts yakking on about Harry this, Harry that. We've got posts in here from people who *never* participate in boating discussions, and none of them are positive or constructive. We've got a few guys who have struggled mightily to help change the tone of the NG from what it has been to what it can improve to become who are unable to resist the bait and are slipping back into their old ways- right here in this thread. The sad thing is- when you fire up a political discussion in this group you don't even get a decent political discussion. You see the same dozen guys calling one another childish names and cut 'n pasting propaganda from one side or the other. Here's a link to a whole batch of political newsgroups: http://www.politicalindex.com/sect29.htm Why not check them out? |

Sorry Chuck:
You see I got bored when they drifted away from deductions for boats. I do notice that most people agree on eliminating tax deductions for boat laons and second homes. That is interesting and pertinent. |
