....repeatedly BEGGED my parents to stop sendin' me this SHIT...makes me fuckin' SICK....but they...the sheep that they are....refuse to listen to me....or see reality for that matter. :cry:


...anyone else get this particular piece o'shit recently?



This was passed to me, but I can't understand it. Maybe you can. I'm trying
to get all this political stuff straightened out in my head so I'll know how
to vote come November. Right now, we have one guy saying one thing. Then the
other guy says something else. Who to believe. Lemme see; have I got this
straight?

Ahh, it's so confusing!

Every year an independent tax watchdog group analyzes the average tax burden
on Americans, and then calculates the "Tax Freedom Day". This is the day
after which the money you earn goes to you, not the government. This year, tax
freedom day was April 11th. That's the earliest it has been since 1991. Its
latest day ever was May 2nd, which occurred in 2000. Notice anything special
about those dates?

Recently, John Kerry gave a speech in which he claimed Americans are
actually paying more taxes under Bush, despite the tax cuts. He gave no
explanation and provided no data for this claim.

Another interesting fact: Both George Bush and John Kerry are wealthy men
Bush owns only one home, his ranch in Texas. Kerry owns 4 mansions, all worth
several million dollars. (His ski resort home in Idaho is an old barn brought
over from Europe in pieces. Not your average A-frame).

Bush paid $250,000 in taxes this year; Kerry paid $90,000. Does that sound
right? The man who wants to raise your taxes obviously has figured out a way
to avoid paying his own.

Pass this on. Election Day is fast approaching.
