    Being happy with life....

    It's funny that you say that, because I can distinctly remember thinking to myself when I was in fifth grade (1970), and I can even remember where I was when I thought it, that life was really good for me and life was only going to get more complicated as I got older. I was right. :) I'll...

    Being happy with life....

    And to gain experiences generally requires money (travel, experiencing different cultures, going to places most don't go to, etc.). So this begs the question, is it possible for poor folks to gain self awareness?

    Please answer a simple laptop question

    I recently bought a 15.4" laptop and I'm trying to print charts like I usually do with my desktop, using Windows Photo Gallery (png file). The margins on the top & bottom are just to big. I've tried everything to get this corrected, but no can do. Is this even possible or is there a simple...

    Dems Target Private Retirement Accounts

    It's been discussed for awhile on Libertarian talk radio. Clinton was actually considering taking 15% of 401(k)'s at one time. Just wait, the Obama train hasn't even left the station yet. :D

    Dems Target Private Retirement Accounts

    Why would you doubt. This is the party that wants to start up the Death Tax again. After your parents have worked a lifetime and payed taxes on their money once already, the Democrats want to take over 50% of your parents money when they die. That will never make sense to me no matter how...

    Pandamonium outside my window

    Yes, "whitey is keeping us down" can no longer be used. That phrase is history. It's also time to make affirmative action history.

    Europe thanks the US for voting Obama.

    You'll have to call the Pentagon for that answer, because I have no idea. It might be time for them to pack their bags. But, hopefully the next time somebody farts loud, Europeans won't hit the ground, wave their hankerchiefs and call us. Because, just maybe we'll be putting all that...

    Europe thanks the US for voting Obama.

    Imagine this scenario: One day, to all countries around the world we say, see ya'll later. You guys are taking care of yourselves now. And then we put all those billions of $'s into our own infrastructure and alternative energy programs. It'd be interesting to see how that would work out.

    You want him, you got him

    I'm going to try to look on the positive side as well. As a libertarian, socialism is a really nasty word to me. However......I'm going to be very interested in what the dems can do to create a serious alternative energy program. I want to see some major results in this area. Republicans...

    Still don't have the answer about Taxes

    What will it take for people to understand that more taxation is never the answer? Bring taxes way down to generate more revenue and cut expenses to the bone. Simple, but liberals insist on................oh hell, I'm done here, the lack of logic is just astounding.

    Taxes

    Change the word SLIGHTLY in your sentence above to GREATLY, and you might not of even had the money to expand your business and create new jobs, not to mention spending more to stimulate the economy. I have degrees in business, engineering, held positions in large corporations, owned...

    Taxes

    They have a hard time with this one, the same way they have a hard time getting a liberal talk show to last. They are frequently carpet bombed with logic and simply can't regain their composure. Emotional statements like Obama's 'Fairness statement' appeal mostly to uneducated, non achieving...

    A Socialist Tsunami

    What is facepalm? Why do we need more inspectors at an additional expense? That's what taxpayers are paying the FDA to do. FDA Title21, Chapter 12. I don't understand your point :confused:

    Taxes

    Obama said he would eliminate the Capital Gains Tax on small businesses and start-ups. LOL, would somebody please call Obama and tell him that small busnesses don't pay Capital Gains Tax. They pay Income Tax. Hello!

    A Socialist Tsunami

    We already have inspectors and in 2007 added even more. http://www.cnn.com/2007/HEALTH/04/24/food.melamine/index.html Grocery stores employees are quite capable of pulling their own meat (no pun intended). As customers, if we don't like the look of the meat, don't buy it. More inspectors...

    A Socialist Tsunami

    No ones life need be deprived in this case, there is fraud involved and a serious breech of confidence, which in time a free market will sort out on its own. Menu Foods Limited does not have the same brand confidence today, as they had before this happened. I'm sure buyers are fully aware...

    Vegas Strippers Incomes 'Cut in Half'; Gaming Revs Plunge; Empty Houses

    Am I kidding? No way. Do think that a guy that wears silk pajamas all day long pays? All this guy has to do is say he's having a party tonite, and 9's & 10's will be tripping over each other to get in the door. The guy knows how to market his stuff. Right now at 80, he's more popular...

    My friend, the majority of men pay. That's true. But some of us don't need to.

    A Socialist Tsunami

    I think that goes without saying. Again, what would be appropriate restraints to place on a Free Market, other than restraints that keep Free Markets from depriving people of their life, liberty or property through either force or fraud?
