ot Mr Banana, I have made more money in the last 5 years than I ever dreamed possible because of this boom. If tax dollars causing surplus, causing capital to flow to the private sector has done this I am happy to pay my taxes and help the folks who are really getting the shaft. If some is left over for me that will be fine. My point is that the Bush plan is not conservative, it's radical supply side at a time (unlike the Reagan era)that we dont need radical solutions. I voted for Reagan and for supply side. I voted for Clinton because Bush sr. had raised taxes at the wrong time, and now I will vote for Gore(as of now) because its the best way to keep the prosperity on track. Sure there some liberal programs that need to be checked and Congressional republicans will do that job. Mike

Let's say the shop owner had been borrowing money and using it to provide services to you at below cost for years. He got so deep in debt that a major part of his revenues were going to pay interest. Partly as a result of the services you received from him, you became rich, and seeing this he decided to maintain prices rather than dropping them, in order to get out of debt. Would you consider him evil and a thief?

JMHO.

Have you ever thought about, that investing in employees and possible employees could give a return of investment?

Remember, that wages may be the result of labor market mathematics, but there is no fair competition as long as the children don't come from equal homes...

Btw: I pay >50% income tax and 25% VAT... Be happy! :-)

The idea that a government employee knows better how to spend the money than the person who actually earned it is 'ludicrous.'
