Whose money is it

seen a poll that asked whose money is the government spending?

26% said the feds have their own money

and just over 50% said that they are spending taxpayers money.

have you ever figured out how much you pay in taxes?

Not just federal, or the state, but all taxes even the tax you pay for the mornin coffee. you might be shocked to find out its in the 60+ percent range.

I didn't realize that southern winds blow so hard. Or is it a straight blowhard?

Don't you have any other place to vent your pent up frustrations.

And what part of the purpose of this forum are you unable to comprehend? Does you browser automatically open threads, or do you have to make a deliberate effort to open them?

The admin, has gone to the trouble to segregate the off topic forums for those who don't care for them. I would advise you to take advantage of their efforts if you find the posts herein objectionable.
