Yet another leftwinger circle jerk email
Well at least the last "rightwinger" email Dre presented had some meaning even though it left out some facts. This email is so open ended they claim "some liberal" did everything under the sun... i'd sure like to me this "some liberal" and shake his hand.

First off, the word "Liberal" needs to be replaced with "Socialist".
Secondly, Joe's "job" most like consists of getting up at noon & strolling down to the mailbox for his Unemployment/Welfare/Food Stamps. [i]"The air he breathes is clean because some tree hugging liberal fought for laws to stop industries from polluting our air. "[/i] That's one way of looking at it; the other is that Socialist-backed laws, regulations, edicts, have either forced plants outside of the US, where such laws don't exist. Can you say "maquilidores"(sp)? [i]"He walks to the subway station for his government subsidized ride to work; it saves him considerable money in parking and transportation fees. You see, some liberal fought for affordable public transportation, which gives everyone the opportunity to be a contributor."[/i] There's no such annimal as a "Government Subsidy". The correct term is "Tax Payer Subsidy". And not everyone is a contributor, as many poor, who use public transportation, don't pay taxes. [i]"He was the third generation to live in the house ..."[/i] Very unlikely as the Death Tax, favored by the Socialists, would have forced Joe or his father to sell off the farm just to pay said Death Tax. [i]"His dad lives on Social Security and his union pension because some liberal made sure he could take care of himself so Joe wouldn't have to."[/i] This is the same Socialist program that is underfunded, mis managed, and has been raided to pay for other programs & wars. Oh, and has a ROI that rivals most savings accounts. The rest is utter rubbish. Paul |
"He was the third generation to live in the house ..."
Very unlikely as the Death Tax, favored by the Socialists, would have forced Joe or his father to sell off the farm just to pay said Death Tax. No one has ever had to sell off their farm to pay the tax in the history of the law. |
They left out the part about Joe and his family dying from a terrorist strike after liberal lawyers completely destroyed racial profiling and the patriot act.

i'm glad i don't receive either of these junk emails, pro liberal or conservative...

[QUOTE=Oaf]Please provide some evidence supporting this statement.
A few years back, my brother-in-law bought an old cattle ranch down the road from me so the heirs could pay the taxes.[/QUOTE] Myth: The Estate Tax must be repealed because it is forcing family farms to sell out. Fact: As with family businesses, this issue has been distorted. Only 3 of every 10,000 people who die leave a taxable estate in which a farm forms the majority of the estate. --> On April 8, 2001, the New York Times reported that the pro-repeal American Farm Bureau Foundation could not cite a single case of a family farm lost due to the estate tax. In any case, family farms can be protected by gradually raising exemption levels. Repealing the Estate Tax will likely encourage the growth of mega-farms, thereby hurting smaller operations.

Thanks for the link. Paul |
No problem :) Just here to inform, and not to hate or pass my opinions to others unless they want to take it for what it is worth.
Enjoy. |
