Would that be the younger work force the older generation paid property taxes to educate while the still older generation were living off them?
Right, 700,000 supporters after how many years and millions of dollars?
Yes. The same younger work force that is paying property taxes AND paying old geezers their monthly SS checks since the older work force let congress spend all of their contributions.
700,000 volunteers. Millions more supporters.
Is that a tax collection method problem or a spend and borrow problem?
the same way “Dianetics” by l.ron.hubard was a best seller?
Never heard of it. Why don't you tell us about it?
(you may be an income tax lover if you: love to tell everyone you see that the FairTax was created by Scientologists)
no actually was not thinking of that but thanks for reminding everyone. You have more than a few times remined people that THIS fairtax is not the OTHER fairtax which was started by the scientologists in order to fight the irs’ refusal to give them 501(c) status. Just because some of the taxscam supporters are scientologiests does not mean whe have to assume these are not NEW scientologists rather than OLD scientologists.
i was actually referencing the book which had the adherents buying up copies and then reshipping the same books back to the bookstores with teh sales label untouched. This created the illusion of sales.
Just in case any of the scientologists are still lurking out there, you can just substitute the hillary clinton biography or the bill clinton biography which was a best seller in much the same way.
you may be an income tax lover if you love to tell everyone you see that the FairTax was created by Scientologists.
You know — I think you really believe that. <p}
I ALMOST feel sorry for you — but not quite.
You forget.. FT’s go all ignorant when you’ve hung them by the short hairs...
Xcamel:
Please allow me to apologize for editing out the first four letters of your not-at-all cleverly disguised foul word; which word is commonly used as the name for a gaseous exudate of the digestive tracts of animals.
Which leads to a little story, which I am absolutely certain will delight your black heart.
Your having exuded that badly disguised nasty word, I replied by truthfully naming you for what you had just proven yourself to be, using a commonly used, undisguised word referring to the southern end of an animals digestive tract. (looks like I should have disguised it beyond recognition by substituting $$ for the second and third letters therein; as is done without comment or censure here every day.)
For that unpardonable crime, I received the following billet doux from the Moderator: ***"Your posting privilege has been suspended until 2008-09-17 17:02:43
"Reason:
"24 hours in the sin bin for foul language."***
And my foul post was removed.
{it almost broke my heart} The reason I bring this up is that, although I will not quote that heinous word again now, I wanted to make sure you wouldnt think that I ignored or missed out on your artful usage of a nasty, foul (although cleverly disguised) word in reference to something you either lack the brains to understand, or deliberately show off how much you are facinated with making a niusance of yourself by lying about it.
And your respectful allusion to me i.e., Dont bother... He got shot out of that A20 and landed on his head.
You must get great satisfaction from hiding behind a keyboard and getting away with saying things to your betters that, if you said to them face to face, you would earn and receive the well-deserved horse-whipping of your miserable life.
PS: I would, however like to correct one thing about your silly little would be insult -- Dont bother... He got shot out of that A20 and landed on his head. -- the time I got shot out of an A-20, I butt-first on a French farmers haystack.
But, thanks for being concerned.

Your first love noteto me read as quoted above; but when I checked in at about 1700 hours the next day to check on exactly when my incarceration was to end, I found that you had added a period after suspended and until 2008-09-17 17:02:43 was missing. It read only: Your posting privilege has been revoked.
Reason:
24 hours in the sin bin for foul language
When I checked in at 1006 hours: this morning 2008-09-19 it still read the same.
When I checked in again at 1046 the ban had been lifted.
Now I could be wrong, but I have always been under the impression that 60+ hours exceeds 24 hours by somewhere in the neighborhood of 36+ hours. But then, never mind. Carry on.
Something you nor you fellow trools have be singularly unsuccessful at doing with you twisting and lying.
But kkep trying — but it would be greatly appreciated if you go back to DU and Kos to practice your oral bowel movements.
strike the word “nor”.
Only in your midget imagination, ooozey, only in your midget imagination.
