| BlackBush, said no new taxes on the poor! Ok, he is going to add 65 cent tax to a pack of smokes to pay for child health care program. Who is this going to hurt? The working class, yes, yes, yes and yes again, smoking is bad, but so is drinking, over eating, drugs and any other habit. Why not tax caviar, lobster, 100 dollar bottles of wine? High price cars, designer hand bags and clothes. Why tax smokers? Why are smokers always footing the bill? Why not add tax to yachts, gambling,and what about tanning beds, they are bad for you? Do we really need to go to sports events? No. Tax it! The only people that can afford to buy the good seats are the rich. So tax front row seats, side line seats. Place a 65 cent a drink tax one people drinking at bars. What about pipe smokers and cigars smokers? What about porn, charge a 65 cent tax on each copy of playboy and porn movies? Why are smokers the only people who are the scum of the world, third rate people, who are made out to be the o nly ones worth taxing to death? I've been trying to stop smoking for a while now, each day, each week, it just gets harder! The longest I have gone is 4 weeks. And it doesn't get better. The patches only makes it worse. I want to smoke! And I don't think this wanting to smoke will ever go away. You just learn how to deal with it! I have only been smoking less than ten years, I started in my 40's. But I already have copd, I had to be on O2, when I was in the hosptial, because my levels where down. So now I really have to stop. I say everyone stop smoking so they will have to find another group of people to tax! Stop footing the taxes that the rich are getting away with not paying! If I could I would raise my own, or buy it from a farmer. I will not give the government any more tax money, just because I'm a smoker! I say give us people who are trying to stop a cash award. Like the cash awards they are giving away with our tax bailout money to big ceo's. Soon you will be paying tax for each breath you take, it's called the carbon tax. | |

| If the government really wanted to cut debt they could start in their own backyard. How about those flights to see weather damaged areas? So a tornado hit Kansas ... why does the president and his herd have to fly there to see it first hand? We get the picture just from seeing it on tv. Did the new president really need a new limo? Sell that thing and put the money back in the coffers. Does the president really need to make a such a huge salary? He has free housing, meals, security and child care. Does the president and his wife need to drive to a school and read to the kids? Thats why they have teachers. How much did that adventure cost the taxpayers? All of the cars and security gaurds for those little adventures are paid for by us. Just think of the backgroundhecks we paid for on all the staff at the school that would working when the president was there. The senate working on Saturday to make another failed stimulus bill. Overtime wages! Want to help the American people? Give us two years each with no taxes stolen from our checks. Let us decide where to invest other than your social security that is going to missing when we are going to need it. Maybe everyone in the country can pay $100.00 each to a fund to pay for things like roads. If you want to donate more than have at it. Have the celebrities that raise money for the election funds have a nice little benefit concert for the USA. And stop the funds that are being given to countries that wouldn't spit on us if we were on fire. America first . | |
