Dear Mr. Vernon, we accept the fact that we had to sacrifice a whole Saturday in detention for whatever it was we did wrong, but we think you're crazy to make us write an essay telling you who we think we are. You see us as you want to see us. In the simplest terms and the most convenient definitions. But what we found out is that each one of us is a brain, an athlete, and a basket case, a princess, and a criminal.

Does that answer your question?... Sincerely yours, the Breakfast Club.

The IRS has guidelines that were set up in 2001 (one of the first things that the Republican controled House and Senate did-a return to Reganomics;remember trickle down theory?) to collect taxes at a 33.33% from incomes ranging from lets say $12,000.00 a year gross income to $80,000 a year gross income. Now this is were it gets tricky so try and follow along; after $80,000.00 (if you make that much) your Social Security payment remains the same and your IRS payment (just for simplicity) starts to move backward. Ok now here is the kicker; if you make over $105,000 you pay less than 5% in tax's. Now lets just say for arguement that this wealth is per-say pushed off shore into Belize or maybe China after a while the $105,000.00 person has been spending less and less in this country  Ergo economic collapse.

Now lets just say again that your company owns townhomes and you have a cheap house somewere else that have your mail sent to that is the house that you do not live at but pay taxes on. Lets also say that your company owns a house in Aspen or Aruba that you live at ( when ever the season strikes you). Then you take all that money that is being depreciated as well as amerterized through your taxes and you have a supercharger for economic collapse (almost forgot there is little or no tax base from company owned townhomes that comes into the federal coffers IE no state funds thanks BUSH and MR Palenty).


I say you raise the taxes of the people that make over $105,000.00 reduce the taxes of the $12,000.00 to $80,000.00 a year person(the people that accually spend money in the USA) and eliminate the cap on Social Security.

According to Congressman Oberstar not only would you have money for Medicare but you would be able to pay for a large majority of the Health Care in the USA.

The revised trickle down economics (remember Reagunomics?) bill runs out in a few months!!! Thank God!!!

Why cant we remember history?

Thats for you Wildgoose!!

Peace
