To #18148 from Junior Balloon **OFF TOPIC ************ I am not saying " it was unfair for A, making $500,000 to pay $50,000 in taxes when B, who makes $50,000 only pays $5000." I was hypothesizing , that that is what Daschle and the Democrats are saying: They are saying in fact, even as I listen to roll-down-in-bed-and-rock-and-roll-Jesse Jackson that, " ....A should pay even more than 50,000 exactly because he makes so much more than B. Maybe A should pay 100,000 or even 150000. He will still have all of 350000 left and that is a hell of alot more than any body really needs to live comfortably on". I am just trying to quote correctly and understand exactly what it is that Muffler Daschle and The Dems are saying, that is all, TA

To #18148 from Junior Balloon **OFF TOPIC ********** In fact Junior Baloon I would not be surprised, if you really wanted to know the true feelings of roll-down-in-bed-and-rock-and-roll-Jesse Jackson and Daschler Muffler ( give em a couple of shots of Curvoisier to get that info ) that they will tell you that it would be perfectly fair to lighten up Bill Gates of about 60 Bill dollars of his stash and leave him with the princely sum of 1 - 2 billion. That 1 - 2 billion is plenty for Bill and wife. What is even more interesting to me , is that when they wake up from the hang over next day, they will join Ted Kennedy fresh out of The Irish Boston pub and go to Church and dutifully recite The Ten Commandaments. Of course they will only recite the short version, " Thou Shalt Not COVET thy neighbour's goods "** ( you can hear Al Sharpton in the background..."Huh??Covet?? whasss that??"). They willnot recite the longer version, of course, of the Ten Comandaments which is located in a book called The Bible, bible.gospelcom.net Number 17 : " You shall not covet your neighbor's house . You shall not covet your neighbor's wife, or his manservant or maidservant, his ox or donkey, <<<<<..or anything that belongs to your neighbor...>>>." simply because they have a good reason: They never read it. Hallellujah, Amen and Rock and Roll brother. PS: Oh I forget: It is OK for Uncle Sam to COVET your goods because the Ten Comandaments don't apply to him. They just apply to me and you. I am telling you....this is a fantastic country... you got to believe me..... just tighten up your ox and donkey to the door post in case Uncle Sam comes snooping around... TA
