In the last twenty-two years we've had about 80 babies come into our care, all of them with medical problems, such as HIV infection, fetal alcohol syndrome, "failure to thrive", drug addicted etc. Our last baby was born in a toilet to a crack using mother and was badly cared for. Our current baby was born with fetal alcohol syndrome and a couple of holes in his heart that don't belong there; at ten weeks age he weighs less than seven pounds. When and if we can get his weight up a couple more pounds he will receive heart surgery. good for you. So tell me again: what is it you do for society? Pay your taxes? According to our Founding Fathers, it's my legal right, after paying my taxes, to pursue my own life, liberty, and happiness. It sure is. No argument. You should know that my whole goods companies provide more useful goods and services to society that have benefited more people than you can ever care for. So who are you to criticize? We're all also free to criticise. Are you one of those liberals who believes everybody else should either do what you do or burn in hell? Hey. You were the one who asked me "how are you contributing to society? sitting at home today eating hot dogs in front of the tv doesn't count" So I told you how I was contributing to society just like you asked. And you're the one who said, "and before you hang me, I paid enough TAXES this year to feed 25,000 people for the entire year, 3 squares a day" which certainly strikes me as a holier than thou boast. Or are you one of those capitalists who believes everybody else should either do what you do or burn in hell? As to my question, "So tell me again: what is it you do for society? Pay your taxes?", you seem to be answering in the affirmative. I probably should mention that I own and have owned corporate stocks. yeah, but owning a meager $300,000 in your 401K hardly amounts to helping uncle sam pay to build that road you drive on every day. What? Uncle Sam's not accepting my gasoline taxes anymore? I don't have a 401K. Being retired, I don't drive on roads every day. And they're usually city streets. And what about your kids. When they grow up, who is going to pay for their medicare and millions of dollars of other government services? Us TAXPAYERS, that's who. Come, come. You probably won't even be around anymore. -- ************* DAVE HATUNEN ) ************* * Tucson Arizona, out where the cacti grow * * My typos & mispellings are intentional copyright traps * |

Hotel Room Cooking--How Common is It?
Come, come. You probably won't even be around anymore. come on, you know that uncle sam makes up a budget that includes estimates for future medicare expenses and then raises taxes NOW in anticipation of future expenses. it's call accrual accounting. and hilliary will want to increase those future expenses so that your handicap kids will get free massages and other taxpayer paid subsidies. |
