turtlespeed 226 #51 October 6, 2010 Quote >i like this selective paying of taxes idea, you figure your taxes, then >you check boxes of where you want your taxes spent. You can do that right now. That's called "charity." Taxes are non-optional monies used to support the government. If there is a cause out there that does not need full public support, then the best option is to not have the government fund it, rather than make it semi-optional. OTOH, if you want to add a "check here to contribute $10 to the cause of your choice" on the 1040, go for it. I believe that would answer your need to fund all things then. just list everything that the taxpayer wants to pay for, and that amount gets added to the respective budgets.I'm not usually into the whole 3-way thing, but you got me a little excited with that. - Skymama BTR #1 / OTB^5 Official #2 / Hellfish #408 / VSCR #108/Tortuga/Orfun Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rhys 0 #55 October 7, 2010 Quoteand what new evidence are you speaking off? Youtube video reposts don't qualify as new. As we announced on August 31, 2010, the International Center for 9/11 Studies has secured the release of tens of thousands of photographs, and hundreds of hours of video footage, from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) under the Freedom of Information Act. We are working on ways to get this data in the hands of interested researchers, we need the community's help to examine this material, much of which has not been seen before. We are pleased to announce that we have made our first release of this material available for download. This first release is the "NIST Cumulus Video" folder which is part of the NIST Cumulus Database we received. It contains over 6500 video clips that NIST used in its investigation. It is important to note that NIST did not voluntarily turn over the entire Cumulus database to us. The alleged copyright holders of a small amount of material in the Cumulus database objected to NIST releasing their materials, and NIST complied with all such requests. We are currently engaged in litigation against NIST, and will continue fighting for complete release of these materials. The original "NIST Cumulus Video" folder is approximately 924GB. To make it possible to distribute, we encoded it using the x264 software library. The result is roughly 86GB and has no noticeable difference in quality. (See http://911datasets.org/index.php/Release_14_-_NIST_Cumulus_Video_Database for the encoding details.). If you download the compressed data set and find interesting items you believe need to be examined in their original, uncompressed format, please contact the International Center for 9/11 Studies using the Contact Us page. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IO1ps1mzU8o&feature=player_embedded This sort of evidence of explosions has been witheld by your government for 9 years and only what remains of you freedom of information act has allowed this database to be released!"When the power of love overcomes the love of power, then the world will see peace." - 'Jimi' Hendrix Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Billions and billions of dollars have been sunk into resolving the bullshit lies. hundreds of thousands are dead. and you re paying for it, i am paying for it and we are not allowed to question? talk about brain washing, you guys can;t refute something so you stab an attack out and laugh about an irrelevant point. You will talk about a failing economy, and politic etc, bring up the federal reserve... silence. You miss the key issues and wonder why the turmoil continues.
