**OT** Rather (ON Topic) Sheesh, did anyone else file for an IRS filing extension?? This is the greatest country on the planet, but our tax system, Specifically our Income Tax system has got to be the worst, most cumbersome, unwieldy, antiquated, #####(add verbage of your choice), piece of garbage in the known, and unknown Universe!!
Come on , can't the Government get its act together and levy a fair flat tax based on purchases, and not on income? A system where You are taxed on ALL you buy, not what you save/earn/invest or profits from such activities. If they did think of the months of time a year we would save from Taxes and Tax related activities.

There, I vented. Any input is welcome.

Brian

looking for a Yugoslavia play? I been lucky with Raytheon. Seems to be running out of cruise missiles. Big contract soon. Risky plays with war. Lost a bunch on oil stocks when that Iraq conflict failed to materialize in autumn. Man, I would of hated war mongering profiteers like myself when I was young. I guess the prospect of eating cat food in my retirement has caused me to sell out big time. Bummer. Think I'll go buy a lid and dig out the bong.
