You believe the 47% who pay no income tax have accountants? I'll submit the reason a majority of the 47% pay no income tax is entitlements aren't taxable income. The Work Versus Welfare Trade-Off: An Analysis of the Total Level of Welfare Benefits by State http://www.cato.org/publications/policy-analysis/work-versus-welfare-trade-analysis-total-level-welfare-benefits-state The value of the full package of welfare benefits for a typical recipient in each of the 50 states and the District of Columbia exceeds the poverty level. Because welfare benefits are tax-free, their dollar value is often greater than the amount of take-home income a worker would have left after paying taxes on an equivalent pretax income. In 40 states welfare pays more than an $8.00 an hour job. In 17 states the welfare package is more generous than a $10.00 an hour job. In Hawaii, Alaska, Massachusetts, Connecticut, the District of Columbia, New York, and Rhode Island welfare pays more than a $12.00 an hour job—or two and a half times the minimum wage. In nine states welfare pays more than the average first-year salary for a teacher. In 29 states it pays more than the average starting salary for a secretary. And in the six most generous states it pays more than the entry-level salary for a computer programmer. Welfare benefits are especially generous in large cities. Welfare provides the equivalent of an hourly pretax wage of $14.75 in New York City, $12.45 in Philadelphia, $11.35 in Baltimore, and $10.90 in Detroit. For the hard-core welfare recipient, the value of the full range of welfare benefits substantially exceeds the amount the recipient could earn in an entry-level job. As a result, recipients are likely to choose welfare over work, thus increasing long-term dependence. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne

I left my first wife (no kids) so I could continue to learn how to jump unimpeded by her objections. As I got older I understood her concerns more and felt bad about the way I left. Last time I saw her was in 2005 at a funeral of a mutual friend. I had the urge to apologize but didn't think it was a good time (I'm pretty certain her husband wouldn't have thought it was a good time). She died in 2010 at age 49. I never apologized.

How Retirees Pay Zero Taxes http://www.forbes.com/sites/baldwin/2013/06/05/how-retirees-pay-zero-taxes/ It would appear that having an accountant who understands the tax code helps. Don't like it...change the tax code. Oh, and BTW....last time I checked there is quite a bit more being withheld from my paycheck than just Federal taxes. Too many pigs, not enough tits.

You can just stop right there. I'm completely depressed by most people's attempts to score Red vs Blue points on this. You should all be ashamed of yourselves. This was never Red v. Blue for me. It was about a POTUS who is just about clueless when it comes to foreign relations, and a boatload of other things too. I'm surprised something like this hasn't happened sooner.

You realize that the pill isn't 100% effective right? This thread has really drifted. I disagree with your example only because it takes an egg and some man batter to make a kid. Shared responsibility regardless of any measures that are being used for birth control. After that all bets are off and she's holding the dice. In contrast, I understand the frustration of a man if the woman professes to not want children and, only after the birth control methods have failed, changes her mind and decides she will have the baby. That's a problem. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne

Seeing as Assad and Putin are both talking about doing something along these lines now, it would appear the cost dropped a bit it the last two days... Indeed.

I get what you're saying but we're not talking about dogs. I can be criminally charged if I'm at fault in a car crash that results in the death of a fetus. So, a fetus is viable and has protection if it's in someone else's body, but not if I'm a pregnant woman and choose to cause it's death? What if I can prove her intentions were to have an abortion? Anyone else here see the quandry? Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne

I'm in agreement that this was an absolutely terrible thing to do and he deserves to be punished. Now let me play devil's advocate. You know where I'm going with this. Always struggled with the moral inequality of intentionally causing the death of a fetus vs. abortion. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne

Those might be interference motors, which means without the timing belt the valves made contact with the tops of the pistons. Still, 233K on a timing belt is amazing. I think the service interval is like 80K. 168K on my Trailblazer. Plan is to drive it until the wheels fall off. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne

I'll say it again...this is what happens when you have no moral compass. It's called leadership. Even W, love him or hate him had the conviction to take a stand and stick with it.

Absolutely it's theft. No one is going to jail. It has to do with intent. The supplier gives you those supplies. Their intent is for everyone to share. It's a goodwill gesture. It's understood by all, or at least it should be. On the plus side you now have a good idea of your co-worker's intentions and can act accordingly. Please don't dent the planet.
