Our goverment, and big businesses,..BOY they sure know how to screw the working man and woman.
If you smoke your screwed, if you work your screwed, if you own a home your screwed,...I just don't get it folks,..how are we all suppose to make it if we pay more taxes ?!!!

Gas prices are up again, now cigarettes up $10.00 a carton, schools want money so more tax levies, food prices up,...If we are in a recession,..why drive hard working people into a depression,..and why the agression to rise taxes, and prices ?!!

Wouldn't it make more sense to lower prices, and even taxes, to stimulate the economy?!!
Wouldn't more people purchase more if they had more money?!!!
OF COURSE they would,..and wouldn't companies and big goverment have more money if we spent more?!!
AGAIN OF COURSE they would !!!

iT JUST MAKES NO SENSE TO ME to take more of something WE all are suppose to have less of?!

I know it seems pointless for me to post this,..but I have to ownder if I am the only feeling this way and if there was something to do about how could we do it?!

I am sure glad that my buddy Hoot aloud my son to hunt his property and in the result of doing so was able to bag a spike buck,..so there's some groceries in the freezer,plus I got a big doe too,..so we are doing good as far as food is concerned,..and at this time I am working, so that's another good thing,..but being able to buy anything else just can't take the chance of buying anything other then what I NEED,..and not what I want.
Hope everyone is holding out ok,and I pray for all of us everyday !!!

God Bless you all and yours,.

well i wrote a big ole rant , but lost it by mistake , i guess your going to have to just wonder what i was saying . h

Well Bro,..if I know you,..I am sure you are pretty much in agreement with me. With a few more choice observations to add.

I watch the news everyday and all I hear is BS.
Today semi-tractor trailers were okayed (in 90 days), to start driving 65mph.Which to me is a good thing,now warehouses and store etc will get their loads quicker and drivers can get something done other then living on the road.
Extention of unemployment benefits (29 more wks), was another good thing in news today and the state helping those with medical benefits by paying 55% of the wkly deduction for 6 mos.
3 good news stories today,but I can't help to think that good things don't come cheap or free,..somebody is going to pay for that and it usually is the taxpayer.

At one time in my life (before the lottery thing), I was for tax levies for school districts.But when the lottery was created years ago it was suppose to help with taxes for schools,..to this date I don't think one red cent has gone towards schools,otherwise there wouldn't be so many threats to our kids if a levy isn't passed.
It erks the ,..out of me because my sons school is always requesting me to send money with him for his report card, or send tissue paper,etc and then he gets credits on his grade if he does WHAT ??!?!?!?!
I told him to ask his teachers if he brought in $50 a month if he would get straight A's?!
Now we are paying for good grades?!

The American taxpayer works hard for the little they get,..and everytime you turn around someone is trying to play a game on your wallet.
AEP another big company wanting money they do NOT deserve,all because they upgraded their grids,..so now they want to retro back to Jan. to get money they feel is owed to them.BS !!!
To me how can they expect to get paid for something they didn't have to offer.??!!

That's like a contractor building your house and then coming back 3 months later wanting more money for the 3 months they didnt do anything!! Again BS !!

The Fleecing of American Tax money and net pay are still going strong,..unless we all wake up and take some action.Otherwise get ready to learn how to live off the land,..PETA is going to starve lolol !!
