you mean like this: Bloomberg's Soda Ban So in other words let's not just have nanny states, but a nanny government. I think a better term would be communism. You can call me crazy all you want, it doesn't change the fact that this is exactly what it is.

There is also an event being planned to help provide donations, resources and support for this young man. Here is the Facebook link: WHAT WILL YOU DO FOR MITCH COMER?

Don't tell that to TP or ZC. Supposedly that's a "ridiculous" idea.

....you gonna make me have to get up off this couch! The whole thing is priceless!! :rofl:

I hardly wear heels anyway, so no harm done if I didn't have those. On occassion I do wear makup and perfume, but I think I could survive if I didn't have those.

Under fair tax proposals as well as other proposed tax plans, used consumer goods are not taxed, and necessities such as groceries are minimally taxed if at all. So goodwill or secondhand stores would be exempt from consumption taxes. The consumption tax would only apply to new goods and services. So In other words, people with higher incomes that would most likely be purchasing more new goods and services would be paying more consumption tax.

Pot meet kettle.

True. But nobody's forcing them to buy consumer goods. Therefore, I see this argument as irrelevant.

Aint that the truth!

My feet were freezing when I woke up this morning! I think I'll wear socks tonight and I might have to turn the heat on.

Great work!! I'm sure he will love the cake!

So this thread went from intolerance, to early American history, to physics. ONLY ON PCOM!!!

It's hard to pay income tax when you have no income.

I was able to view it.

:rofl: That's exactly what I was thinking!!! I-285 is not for the weak.

We pay for our own health insurance, not through an employer, it just went up to a little over $900 a month. That's for me, my husband and my nine month old. I agree...it's getting very crazy.

Obamacare will not only affect uninsured Americans, it will affect employers and small businesses. To me, this has DISASTER written all over it.

Ignorance is bliss.

That thing scares me.

What the hell?!?!?!?!

Sending prayers and good thoughts that everything works out for the best. Stay strong!

Yes Bayou Bill's is a good place for crab legs, it's at the west end of Front Beach Rd. Other good places to eat are Captain Anderson's, Angelo's, Saltwater Grill, of course you'll be shelling out a little more money fot those but they are really good. Then there's always Pinapple Willy's.

Haaaahaaaaaa! now that would be a Dora movie I might actually enjoy watching.

I was at a Wolf Camera store today and saw all the signs "20-40% off everything", "Going Out Of Business", "Everything Must Go!". I was quite surprised because I had not heard this news yet. I actually prefer to use them for most of my photo printing over Walmart because I've had issues with Walmart. Anyway, I am sad to see them go.

Headed to La Parilla to celebrate my little brother's birthday which was on Thursday. Yum yum cheese dip!!
