rehmwa 2 #302 December 30, 2009 Quote Perhaps you could explain the relevance to the subject. Perhaps you could float upside down on a shell and drink rum-based cocktails ((((ok, to be obtuse - gov's job is expanded to social welfare that equals laws to put groups into little randomly defined stereotype groups and then either take money from that group or to preferentially give money to that group - depending on what's in fashion or who has more pull. Since we still have to pay the bills, any arbitrary credit to one group has to be made up somehow - and that means taking more from someone else to cover the short - the only net way to reduce a total budget is to spend less. Or, and this is the ironic part - to stop transferring money from one group to the other and allow the overall economy to improve to increase net intake. Just like a business)))) ...

rehmwa 2 #305 December 30, 2009 Quote It's so simple even you can understand: Don't buy a house --> pay more tax Don't buy health insurance --> pay more tax wow, I'm so confused - I so expect you two to be on opposite sides of this particular rather nitpicky discussion since it relates to tax credits for special groups (normally a left position) vs treating everyone the same (normally a rightie position) in short - yes, Mike, there's no specific/delineated/expressing defined line item tax added for this stuff. Stop being obtuse. This is how the government screw us. yes, John, if one group gets a credit, then anyone not taking, or not eligible, for that credit has to pay more since the credit takers aren't carrying an equal load of the tax burden. No know that, liberals revel in it. It's a tax ratcheting mechanism that could be considered as added tax which would reflect in a higher general rate. Or at least a lost opportunity for a credit. you both win, we all lose. thanks for all the fish ...

I agree but I was responding to the other post that says FL has a requirment that if the vehicle is registred it has to be insured. I was saying if it is never driven on public roads even IF that is true, how would that requirment be enforced and why would anybody want to insure it ??? And I speak of liability only here because that is the only insurance a state requires."America will never be destroyed from the outside, if we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves."

If you think otherwise tell me how it would be enforced? In Virginia (which I guess is a somewhat similar law, not sure what particular insurance coverage is required w/ registration), you have to certify that the vehicle is insured when you first register it. I don't know if they check that or not. However, you have to maintain insurance and any insurance company is required to report to the state when you drop coverage. If you drop coverage while it is still registered you are subjected to fines and penalties. So, there is an enforcement mechanism separate from you actually driving on a public road."What if there were no hypothetical questions?" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
