Weird thought(s)?
Just because I make more than $250k a year, why should I have to pay the healthcare bill for those who are illegal, choose not pay for coverage or cannot afford coverage? Just because I have worked very hard over the past twenty years to get where I am today, that makes it okay for our politicians to say, "the rich shall pay for it, don’t worry about it."
What would happen right now to our Country, if all of the so called "rich" folks making over $250k a year decided to move to Mexico, everyone stopped smoking and did not fill their gas tanks up for one week?
Total chaos, a total governmental collapse.
So I wonder, are we getting it right up in Washington?

Hey, I don’t make nearly that much! Give me a fraction of your $$$ and I will heartily support your rightful claims
Moving to Mexico is a bad decision because you’ll get kidnapped, rich guy. You could move to Canada, but then you’ll definitely pay there for the poor fellas. In short, you have no escape

My case and point…always someone wanting just a handout….No offer for service, just offer to take money…root cause of America’s ills personified! GIve me, Give me, Give me….Forget hard work, persistence and proactivity….Just give the people something easy. All great nation’s demise become imminent when the people discover the right to vote and support handouts….

It WOULD be alot of money if I didn’t have to take 40% right off the top for Federal and State income tax….and oh yeah by the way, with the deficit the way it is…it should be about 60% right off the top by year 2012….Remember the so called rich folks do account for about 80% of all the tax revenues collected in this Country…Wonder if that is what our founding fathers envisioned??? "Work hard, make a difference so you can pay for others to slack off"…hhhmmm….

BOY, COULD I ELABORATE ON THIS ONE, BUT NOT AT THIS TIME. ALL I CAN SAY IS, BE VERY THANKFUL FOR WHAT YOU HAVE, MY FRIEND. MANY OTHERS ARE NOT SO FORTUNATE AND ARE "TRUE" CASUALTIES OF THE CURRENT ECONOMIC CRISIS, THROUGH NO FAULT OF THEIR OWN OR LACK OF TRYING TO BETTER THEMSELVES WITH HARD WORK. ITS BEEN A "VERY" DIFFICULT YEAR! DAVE.
