Looks like he won’t be VP material then.
Freedom, security and wealth have devolved and degraded especially since 911 for some odd reason. Gee -- what could that mitigated factor be?
My only question: Does any rube here on FR actually believe that we still live in a Republic?
Ping.....
Look at those!
What a fool he is. The gas tax goes into effect the day the bill is signed but the sales tax cut only goes half way into effect 6 months from now (if ever).
That works out to about ONE PENNY per mile, or maybe $150 per year for an average to heavy driver.
The world won’t end. Look what else is going on - the plan is to start TRACKING and TAXING all vehicle movements. Leave your driveway to buy a quart of milk in the middle of the night - it better be nearby, because you’re likely paying at least 10 cents per mile ($1.00 per mile at peak, on certain roads).
The traffic will keep moving, even if the drivers are jumping into the Delaware due to debt.
Income tax, State tax, City tax, Sales tax, Energy tax, Telephone tax, Estate tax, Property tax, the list goes on...and Most working people have NO IDEA....
If you should win the lottery in my state....and opt for the payout. The state gets their cut..and the Feds get their cut....around 44% total. They risked nothing....!!!!
When I make a stock trade...and sell before I've owned it a year....the same thing..happens to me. They risked nothing.....but they take!!!
