• Policy-Influencing Economists: Higher Taxes Won‘t ’Discourage Wealthy From Working Harder’

  May 1, 2012 at 8:10pm

  Tried before and failed.
  Taxation: The People’s Business, By Andrew Mellon, 1924
  In 1920 the top marginal tax rate was 77% (some sources have that at 78%) Mellon cut the rate down to 63%. In 1924 only 3% paid any income taxes. The book was used to convince the 97% who paid no taxes on the 3% who did.
  There are blank pages at the front of this PDF

  PTSD is higher among support troops. When there is someone shooting at your and your are shooting back you know what you did and what happened. When you sign a Maintenance request and the equipment comes back in pieces you don‘t know if your the reason it didn’t come back. These guys never see the soldiers they save and don’t know if they did saved or helped the good guys.

• Are Military Atheists Planning to Target Commanders’ Pre-Combat Prayer?

  The problem with not having a god is that you can define your own, or others sin. With the God of the bible there is a difference between killing in war and murder. This is the same “logic” you use when you don’t believe we are at war with Al-Qaeda. We didn’t declare war on them, Al-Qaeda declared war on us on 9/11.

• Market Recap: Dow Breaks 12,000 in Rally Fueled by Central Banks

  November 30, 2011 at 6:29pm

  This is Bush’s fault. The market went up over the weekend because of the 401(k) and IRA contributions came in for the people who have a weekly or biweekly pay cycle. The big jump today was because it is the end of month payday. Tomorrow won‘t be such a big jump because the federal employees who get paid tomorrow don’t contribute that much.

  It‘s Bush’s fault because the first tax break was to give a larger retirement account tax break.

• ‘Occupy Faith’: Leftist Pastors Offer Protesters Shelter & Support During the Cold Winter Months

  November 30, 2011 at 6:24pm

  GOD gave two tax rates. 1/5 and 1/10.
  Joseph was given a 1/5 tax rate that was low enough for the warehouses to be filled and the Egyptians ran out of numbers. It was so high that even the rich sold themselves into slaver because they couldn’t prepare for the famine. It was a tax cut because when everyone except the priests were slaves they celebrated when the tax was only 1/5. AND EVERYONE PAID THE SAME TAX RATE. Genesis 41 and 47.
  The second tax rate of a 1/10 is a burden because Samuel warned that it was high enough for people to cry out to the LORD. 1 Samuel 8..
  Paying their fair share in GOD’s eyes is paying the SAME TAX RATE. So this guy is going to hell.

• Columnist: NYPD Encouraging Drunks to Join Occupiers

  November 1, 2011 at 11:35am

  By liberal thinking homeless people can’t make a decision to “join” the protest on their own because only liberals are smart enough to tell everyone what is in their own self interest.
