Tax Return Treats
Quote:
I agree, a flat tax would eliminate the need for a bunch of lawyers that write the tax code and the 80,000+ IRS employees that enforce/administer it. Many corporations and charities would not like it but I think the corporations would come around once they realized how much government overhead it would reduce, and saw the reduced tax burden. Gee, and everybody would be working so we won't need as many charities. The administrators of government always wants to cut (and threaten to cut) Police, Fire, Teachers, and other services. If we could cut half of the administrators we wouldn't miss them. Too many chiefs, and don't get me started on judges. Let's take a look at most areas...why do we need 4 layers of governement? (Federal, State, County, City). The answer is we don't. If this was private industry we would be merging into just 2 layers and slashing the backroom people and fixed overhead. Too damn simple. Sorry, got off on a rant. Glad you got some money back Kris. Enjoy it because President B.O. will be looking for it soon.

I have one set of Gerbing heated pants and jacket (thrown into the deal when I got that Valkyrie), WOW, is that stuff open up a whole new level of comfort on the ride. For my wife, but I often steal it. I havn't figured out how your supposed to ride with jeans, then heated pants, then chaps on top of that?
