Ya really won't get much heat outta the Temple Worthy ones; for they haven't had any MEAT to eat all summer.
The misleading part is that we got used to call “earnings” what we take home after taxation.
In practice will be even better you will take home your Gross income minus 9% and then you have the power of how to use the rest of 9% sale tax. Yes necessities as food and other one will have no choice but for other things we have that choice.
Actually for poor people is gain. I by often big item purchases like car or TV set, under 999 math I have more money to start with and I am better off.
I did?
I having this nagging feeling that you’re not being square with me...
As Cain said let see the mat. Take your GROSS INCOME and deduct 18% (9 for income tax and 9 for sale tax) see woat is left and compare with what you are left now.

I guess we need a short explanation sheet that defines all of the MORMON shorthand words.
“Gingrich: Outstanding. He is my second choice right now. Wed be lucky to get him. Unfortunately, the dope in the street thinks more about number of wives than the things that should be most important to us in a dangerous world.”
Don’t be too hard on the dope on the street. It’s not just about his wives. He imploded when he was in charge of the house. His pandering to extreme liberals, his global warming position maintained in the face of all common sense, and his failure to support good conservatives in lieu of supporting real liberals (like Scozzofava or however you spell it), stupid assessment of Paul Ryan’s plan, etc. -
Newt’s a loose cannon and he has the track record to prove it. Unfortunately. We all shake our heads over such a waste of potential. And if there was an election for Republican Debater In Chief he’d have my vote.
But not for President of the U.S.
It’s not all about his wives.
This is my problem with Cain: He sounds so good, just like Newt sounds so good. Yet I wonder will he be willing and able to stick to his principles if elected. I guess I can only hope so.
But I tend towards candidates with proven track records, because I feel like I know where they stand more. How strongly do they hold their positions? Will they back down? Are they just blowing smoke?
You can never now for sure, but, a track record is a good indicator. I like candidates with track records. Anyone can sound good.
I don’t mean to undermine Cain. I consider him a brother and a great American. I may vote for him in the primary.
The vast majority of folks do NOT realize than corporations pay NO taxes!
They add that COST OF DOING BUSINESS into the final cost of whatever they sell.
The PURCHASERS of their product end up paying the tax that was assessed (wink-wink) the corp.
Storm Wall Street and DEMAND that MORE TAXES be heaped upon companies!!
(You IDIOTS!)
No, I asked the question because she used the term “dead dunk” which is of no meaning to me. I wanted her to clarify that, and her context of Mormonism along with our Founding Fathers. She has clarified her statement and I’m satisfied.
Oh?
They know EXACTLY what they are doing; trying DESPERATELY to find ANYTHING to make us SHUTUP with all of the UGLY FACTS about MORMONism being exposed.

Oh well; they made a CHOICE.
And the AUTHORIZATION for all of this is found in WHICH of their Scritures?
I guess when I post stuff that MORMONism has printed, and you READ it; you get really upset!
Ok; we get it.
You do not care about their eternal fate.
Inmen; you paper!
