    So you're good with double taxation, then.

  2. if the "only" tax was the estate tax, everybody would die broke

    the corporate tax is the true double tax

    tax my company when we make it

    then tax me when they pay me

    20,000 pages of tax code

    99.99% of that is corporate tax code

    that's where the Wash D.C power comes from

    eliminate corporate taxes, and, "Who needs a politician on the take?"

  4. yeah well, like the man said, "It's a very good time to be a lawyer."

    especially if your client gets hit with a big bill in January

    caught between a cancelled plan and the "market place."

    U.S. News Outlets Ignore 'Appalling Patient Care, Bureaucratic Cover-ups' at UK's 'Too Powerful to Criticize' NHS

    Their stated excuse is, "These could never happen here, so why should U.S. news consumers care?" Their real excuse is, "We don't want anyone thinking that Obamacare could lead to this, even though there are already plenty of signs that it will."

    Two weeks ago, the UK Daily Mail reported on three just-released "damming reports" on Great Britain's government-run National Health Service. A separate December 20 UK Telegraph dispatch reports that the NHS is "on the brink of crisis" because it has been "treated as a 'national religion' while millions of patients receive a 'wholly unsatisfactory' service from GPs and hospitals." A scroll through supposedly U.S.-based news results from December 11-26 in a search on "national health service" (in quotes" at Google News returns precious little actual coverage here; the few exceptions are at conservative-leaning outlets like Amy Ridenour's National Center Blog. Excerpts from both UK items just noted follow the jump.

    First, the Daily Mail

  8. ah, it doesn't bother me too much

  10. I aint gonna lie to you

    I like talking

    my job is very lonely

    just me and the market

    and even though I bitch and moan all day

    the market never says much back to me, other than just moving a few points in my favor or against me

    So yeah, I like talking

    Beats the heck out of drinking

    Given the choice, I don't know

    I like smoking and watching

    Like the man said, "You can observe a lot just by watching."
