"I got this article from a friend who has a shop in a five unit mini-mall. The smallest unit is a rubber stamp store owned by the wife of an entrenched congresscritter. She doesn't seem to do much business, but her Hummer has chrome brush guards, gets detailed in town at a car wash, has no mud or dirt ever.
She's a bitch, and had hubby make sure the USPS delivers HER mail first.
Net result in that mini-mall?
Two new democrats and two new libertarians.
Selective tax cuts are dangerous.......why not make the damn thing applicable to car insurance, gasoline taxes, phone bills, a wider swath?
Christallmighty, a tax cut for car insurance, gas, phone, and the local college would have 99% Bush fans. Drop the fed taxes on draft beer, and it would be 100%!"
I took a 40 minute, in state, commuter flight to visit relatives. I made the mistake of paying cash, at the terminal in our little town.
TSA flagged me, searched my carry on, my jacket, asked me to remove my boots and belt. wanded me, asked me many questions, one of 'em went outside to write down my license plate.
