>> I also remember getting a big nominal income tax cut in Reagan's 1986 tax reform. I also know that I ended up paying FAR more taxes by the time I was done with my return. While my rate was lower, I lost virtually all my deductions. "<<

Serves you right Axeman for voting for him.

RSX.X doesn't think about state income taxes, ever.

Ever?

I live in Florida now. No state income tax. But there is an "intangeable tax" in Florida. Very creative!

But I did not always live here. I don't get a pass on state tax. I pay, and will pay state income tax in N.Y. until 2017. No matter where I live.

Death and taxes Max. Nowhere to run! Nowhere to hide!

Quote from max401:

No, the NY state tax.

OH!!!!! THAT!!!!!!

Silly me, I should have guessed that was what you meant.:D

Rather simple. Passive income derived in NY. State. For a more full explanation of that, you would need to ask my accountant. I just sign and pay.

No where to run, as I said.

Alfonso,

Really, man; what is up with that Lincoln Quote? It has been mentioned a few times before.

What is your point? And where did you find this alleged quote?

:confused:

The "point" was that I was certain the vast majority were never aware that your "Great Emancipator" ever said that. Just a bit of "shock value" fun on my part; I can't stand heroification of historical figures.

I'm sure that to you it is only "alleged", but check it out; it's all very true.

Then you don't pay any Florida state income tax, ever.

No Alfonso, no one needs to check it out, I for one am quite sure I can trust you on this. It does seem however that your idea of "fun" is to show everyone that the US is not perfect. Guess what? Even MondoTrader (well, maybe using him is a stretch, but I will go out on that limb anyway) know we are not "perfect". Not now, and not ever.

But we try and make things better. We try and change when we realize there is injustice, or inequality. We really do have a sense of "right vs. wrong". Sometimes we blunder. We are just a nation of people.

Our "heroification" of historical figures is really quite limited. We have a statue here and there, a few monuments, and usually a picture of the current President at any given time in our post offices. We do not have omnipresent posters, banners and murals all over the country like has and still does occur in so many parts of the world. We don't worship these men. We just honor them.

So I find your seeking out and posting the Lincoln quote as being nothing but mean spirited at best. How would you like it if a record was kept of every word you ever said. And excerpted by those who looked to exploit your misstated or regretted words? . Being "on the record" all the time is a horrible thing. Having that "record' used to discredit you is even worse. Also, 140+ years is an awfully long time
