Guess what we'll be doing with the windfall tax rebate ($13) that we're getting on our paychecks?
Paying taxes.
We had a couple of new sources of income that wasn't taxed or wasn't taxed enough so we get to pay.
In another cruel twist, between Tia and I we are supposed to get about $800 this yea from Obama's stimulus package but the IRS also took away a deduction that was worth $1,200 to us.
Thanks. I'd like to tell the government to quit pretending to do me favors.
Today there are supposd to be hundreds, maybe thousands, of protests across the country. I wonder if any of it will make TV news. I won't be checking but I am curious. I'll check news sources online tomorrow and maybe YouTube to see what went on.
The theme of the protest is TEA Party, where TEA stands for Taxed Enough Already. Wonder if any of them are going to try and disguise themselves as Native Americans. I know they were sending tea bags to politicians in Washington DC.
On the outside, politicians probably laugh at such antics but behind closed doors, do you think they worry that they are going too far? Or does the bribe money blind them to what they are doing? Do they think that people will just keep bending over and taking it? Do they think so highly of themselves or so lowly of people that they think they can just keep on doing whatever they want without repercussion.
I would love to find an honest politician and ask them what the true thoughts and feelings were in the Congressional Houses. Is it overpowering greed or stoopidity that guides their decisions and how do they feel about the growing dissent in the country?
