Join the tax resisters and rub elbows with that elite group consisting of: Rangel, Daschle, Geithner, etc... Sorry, Ricter, couldn't resist.:D

Good point. As traders, perhaps we should end our tax discussion here!:) On the other hand, those privileges are offset by the limited loss deductions per year we can make, though if my tax accountant (my wife) is correct, we can sum those prior years of loss deductions during a great year...

There are times the deductions were nice, but to be honest with you, I felt there was a pretty good chunk of change going out for taxes even then. In addition, I don't always want to spend money to get deductions if I don't need the gear. You make some good points, free thinker. I...

I have no employees. I'm paying both the employee and employer portion of the FICA (SECA?) I did, and occasionally use sub-contractors, however. They, like myself, are self employed. I have been self employed for 20 years. The level I must file at is actually 400. The level that the...

No, but I do pay more FICA at that level. That fact alone means I pay more becasue I am self empolyed. Of course, you knew all that when you responded to my post. You are playing games with the wording of my post while effectively avoiding the issue. The level I must file at is actually...

Yes, everyone does, but certainly at differant rates. I shall refine the comment in my post to paying no federal income tax . That number was around 45% for 2010 according to the Tax Policy Center. http://money.cnn.com/2011/04/14/pf/taxes/who_pays_income_taxes/index.htm

Everyone, and I mean everyone , should pay taxes. I am self-employed. I pay taxes on everything over 600 bucks. Doesn't matter if I get sick or injured. (I get no unemployment if I am sidelined, either), but if I make a measly couple grand in a year I still pay taxes on it, and being...

Better yet, why not give it a reason to stay?

That money could have fed a lot of hungry people. I wonder what the inner cities would look like if all the money ever spent to promote and expand liberalism was actually used to help the victims of liberalism...

Are you an expert on the Tea Party, and if so, how? Just curious. Many people share their views who do not consider themselves tea partiers. Many of them are not at the end of their lives. If you ask me, the only people who are bat shit scared are the lefties and moderates in congress. Real...

Perhaps it's time for them to start using modern media capabilities for their disussions and debates regarding legislation and other actions. Take them out of the beltway. Let them work from their homes where they can be quickly held to account by their constituents.

I don't see it so much as preying on the fallen but as an opportunity for a candidate or politician who uses social media to encourage such mobs to disrupt events held by rival candidates or politicians. Such an individual would essentially be organizing the youths to achieve a desired outcome.

That state of mind has gone well beyond the ghetto (glamorized by the music and television industries). Not sure which city it was, but the mayor stated he would hold the parents responsible for crimes committed by members of the flash mobs. That is an excellent starting point, if indeed it...

Why would he want to do that? A community organizer lives for this kind of shit.

:D LOL!!!! No doubt some of the pundits on CNBC Thu (or Fri morning at 7:31CST when the NFP number resulted in a 254 point one minute bar in the YM!)

Perhaps they haven't learned to look past the colorful sound bites to learn who they are really voting for. On the other hand, it might just be their sweet tooth that keeps them voting the same idiots in over and over again.

Liberal superiority complex: Do as I say, not as I do. Remember Rowan? Another anti gunner using his gun for self-defense. I expect no armed liberals to hand over their "assault weapons" or other firearms if they are ever outlawed on a national level. I wonder how the pro gun liberals...

Thanks. After checking out several, I went with Witopia. Excellent support. Everthing worked great.

Has anyone used Tradestation through a VPN? Main concern is charting speed.

I don't. We've suffered enough from the failure of the media to properly vet this guy. As far as the people who voted for him; it's expected from the left, but the conservatives who voted for him give truth to the liberal claim of right wing stupidity. There was absolutely nothing...
