GSLover123, Sita's fine, she passed a wadd of paper towels and chewed up twigs, we were lucky thiis time.
Wazzup - Contrary to popular belief, not everyone got a stimulas check.
you had better thank me or someone just like me for that stimulas check. Not only did we not get one, but we paid extra for you to get yours! these stimulas checks are a way to redistribute wealth - from my pocket to yours.
earned income credit, child credits, and others are ways for people to get back more then they pay.

not how much you overpaid and got back or how much you underpaid and had to write a check for,
how much you was actually paid?
it is truly amazing how many people have no idea...........
48% pay nothing and 20% actually get more back then they pay in........this sickens me - every one should pay something. this is wealth redistribution - pure and simply socialism.
GSDlover123.
thanks for the well wishes.......Sita is well and now in heat..........thank goodness Hero is clueless......next time it will be more difficult to keep them apart - he will be old enough to understand.

Expect inflation to rear its ugly head in the not too distant future. Folks will start seeing the error of their way and clean house in DC

I don't have the answers to all of the questions folks are raising on this thread... BUT... thanks to the programs you have started in under 4 months as Pres I know that this month for the First time in 4 years I was able to say that my mortgage is 100% caught up, and payments were on time.... for the first time I'm actually starting to gain on the financial hole I've struggled with for so many years. No, it's not perfect... but for the first time I have space to breathe and to make plans for a better tomorrow. I also know that the "bail outs" which you proposed and put into action have huge strings of accountablity on them to be sure that the big wigs don't pocket it and run.
Keep your chin up, and keep working to help us.
Thanks
Jill

My name doesn't appear on the ballet as my dancing days are over. Too many knee surgeries and an artificial hip brought an early end to my promising dance career. I did perform a mean Swan Lake at one time though. I'm also guessing that you didn't have any family or close friends in New York on Sept 11th. Maybe you should ask someone who did how they feel about our situation in the Middle East.
Living in the northeast part of Illinois, I am close to the Chrysler plant that is, or was, the largest employer in the area. Let's ask the over 1000 employees that were laid off how they feel about our native son's genius.

He forced banks to take TAR money and will not let them pay it back ............

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Income_tax_in_the_United_States
Some argue that the current income tax system, which is the government's largest revenue source, is too progressive and redistributive.[29] In 2007, the top 5% of income earners paid over half of the federal income tax revenue.[30] The top 1% of income earners paid 25% of the total income tax revenue.[31] Forty percent of Americans pay no federal income tax,[30] which raises moral concerns regarding wealth redistribution and the economics for controlling the size and spending of government.[29]
