JIMBOB2's Blog

My first thought to your headline was, “what’s new?"
jimbob2 there was a guy that was responsible for monitoring on the job injuries, but I seem to remember a news report indicating he was killed by a herd of chickens.
I think Easley is moonlighting.

I know this is off the topic a little but when the government wants more money I get revved up.Go into a store..buy a dozen eggs,a pack of cigs(I don't smoke)and a bottle of shampoo.Go to a service station....buy gas and one lottery ticket.How much money went to the state and federal in one day ? These daily expenditures are on top of 2 city taxes each year,1 county tax each year,state & federal income tax.Tax on phone bills,cable bills,power bills,gas bills,we pay tax on our homes,everything inside them and outside them.Tax on everything we use bought,rented,or leased.I pay tax on the light in the bathroom when I get up,water for the shower.When I go to bed I paid tax on the bed ,mattress,sheets,pillow and pillow case.The dog laying on the floor beside the bed...when I adopted her..taxed..her shots...taxed...her food..taxed...her tags..taxed.By now maybe you see I have a problem with taxes and the government asking for more money.The more they get,the more they waste and the harder it makes it on me to pay my bills.They tax us,I guess,to keep the government running but when they make mistakes,have more problems,or the money just"evaporates" their cure is to throw more money into it.My money,your money.

The only way the government has to make money is taxes. They learned this a few decades ago and have not forgotten it. Either vote a plain ole boy/gal into office with the specific instructions to change the taxes, or, just shut up and pay, pay, pay. One way to cut down on your taxes is not to buy anything. Criminals found this out and do not pay any taxes on their gains. LOL.

Also, you have to be prepared for disappointment when you vote in the good ole boy/gal because not long after they are in office, they will change into the same people that are currently occupying these positions. Just look at all those that swore (yes, swore) that they would change the rules that they could only serve one or two terms and then get out. After getting in, they realized that this was the "Golden Goose" and changed their minds. So, you might be right to reconcillation to paying taxes.

JIMBOB2, I think you can see you are not alone in your frustration at this ever downward spiraling situation. The term from Disney's "Robin Hood" comes to mind... "taxing the heart and soul out of the poor people"... how apt that quote is.
I like cook's idea, take him to court. Too bad tar and feathering is out of the option.
