Paying Their Fair Share - The Myth
catfishhunter replied to Gravitymaster's topic in Speakers Corner
No the concept isn't lost on me, but we are talking fair share. So tell me Kallend just what is my fair share? What is your fair share? How do you come up with what is fair? Lets break it down real simple for you. Lets take a pie. Lets put you me and billy boy at the table. We need to divide the pie up into fair share portions. Well I'm bigger the both of you so my fair share should be 75% Now Billy is younger then you and just had a kid and your old and going to die soon so you really don't need any pie so lets give the rest to billy...Sounds fair to me using your logic...Pretty ridicules don't ya think.... Flat tax does not promote the real-world fairness equivalence-of-burden; only a graduated tax rate does. That's why it's existed for decades, even when the GOP has had the majority in Congress. This is the third thread in as many weeks that I've had to explain this. It's amazing how many non-wealthy conservatives fail to get it, and actually - eagerly - advocate their own butt-fucking.* http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?post=4405259#4405259 http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?post=4400009#4400009 http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?post=3481855#3481855 * Not that there's anything wrong with that. Geeze you too? Kallend said FAIR SHARE...I want HIM to tell me what is my fair share what is his fair share and what are rich peoples fair share and what are the folks sucking off the government tit fair share. If you want a FAIR SHARE then that means EVERYONE pays their fair share. Otherwise shut the fuck up about paying a "fair Share" because there is no way to actually do that MAKE EVERY DAY COUNT Life is Short and we never know how long we are going to have.

And your point is? Just because someone makes more they should pay more? How about you pay the total sum they are paying then you will be paying YOUR SHARE...This whole fari share thing is bull shit. If it is a fair share thing then lets add up what it cost our goverment to run then divide that equally between everyone then it would be fair share...Either that are go to a flat sales tax and get rid of federal income tax all together..

My son does a lot of parkour. Some of it has a risk of injury. I worry about him. I don't think I could laugh at a video of him injuring himself. I tell my boy all the time when he is doing stupid shit that if he gets hurt I am gonna laugh at him. Its funny because people will see him doing something and tell him to be careful and I'l tell him to tell them what will happen if he gets hurt. He looks at them and says "my dad is gonna laugh at me" Now will I really laugh if he gets hurt bad? I dont think so but I sure do laugh most of the time.

This is about Isreal hitting Iran. I did not say a thing about teh US hitting Iran..And ISreal has every right to protect themselves. Iran said they want to remove them from the face of the earth. Now if I told you I wanted to do that to you and was working on a wqay to do it dont you think you might just maybe do something to stop me BEFORE I am able to use it?

ummm thats kinda what they want......you see they are true belivers unlike the westerners that have foresaken their god muslims are ok with going to meet theirs and bringing about the end game. They dont think it is going to happen they know it and are doing all they can to hurry it up. You can't talk people out of that...damn westerners really are stupid and they sad thing is they know it and we act just as they expect..

Bingo. The mistake everyone always makes is trying to apply Logic to the Muslim World. They do NOT think like we do. Dying for Allah is the greatest thing they can do. They do not value life as we know it. They laugh that we care and use it against us. They don't care if they are wiped out. It means Allah is returning for them. They have no reason to be scared. Matter of fact they really want to go meet their god so I say lets help arrange the meeting. When you cannot educate you must eradicate...

Where do you live again? Oh thats right bankrupt california...good luck with that... Utah receiving $1.07 federal funding for every $1.00 it pays in taxes. California, on the other hand, is receiving $0.78 in funding for every dollar it pays in taxes. Difficult math here, but from the perspective of the federal budget, which one contributes more than it costs, and which costs more than it contributes? http://visualeconomics.creditloan.com/united-states-federal-tax-dollars/ Blues, Dave :) and we also have a surplus and not a defect :) I might be wrong but I am pretty sure WE are going to be ok....not so positive for some of you though... You only run a surplus because states like California and Illinois are subsidizing you. UTAH makes a profit out of federal welfare. umm ok we don't have debt we have a surplus. We just finished our freeway. We have businesses and the government building and employing people like crazy with more leaving their states and coming here. And I'm supposed to be upset about????? You sound really envious...Maybe you should elect better leaders in your state... MAKE EVERY DAY COUNT Life is Short and we never know how long we are going to have.

Um no we just finished the freeway so that money you folks are quoting is all spent :) and besides that our leaders plan for the future...why we have a SURPLUS so we can continue to take care of ourselves no matter what comes down the road instead of spending everything that comes in and borrowing more..

You CANNOT get the flu from the flu shot. It still astounds me how many people think this. Two times I have had the shot in my life and both times I got the flu. Call it what you want but that's enough for me not to ever gt another one. Up until then I can't ever remember being out of work for three days sick in bed. Not saying it gave me the flu but it sure didn't help keep me from getting it compared to not getting it. If it works for you great. :) get it, heck get two...

I have had the flu twice in the last six years...both after getting a flu shot because my wife wanted me too. Refused last year and low and behold I didn't get the flu. For me putting the flu virus in my body In the hopes of kick starting my immunity did the opposite. Won't be doing that again.

Closing Pin Necklace, bought or earned?
catfishhunter replied to ReluctantStool's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
Mine was given to me after I made my first solo. I wear it on a silver David Yurman Chain. I get lots of "wow I really like that charm what is it?" I then get to explain what it is and how it works. It has always been a positive experiance when it is noticed but I wear it for myself. Totems are a reminder after all and it reminds me that skies call......

Government ordered drug testing in New Zealand
catfishhunter replied to Andrewwhyte's topic in Instructors
Well, see that is just the problem with mandating drug testing, it only really targets cannabis users over all and hardly if ever busts those using hard drugs like, meth, LSD, H, Coke, XTC, etc. Those drugs leave the system in 24 hrs or less, unlike herbs. So the real truth of the matter, based on 40 some years being around and watching as well as being a player in the dropzone world..... It's not the cannabis users who are not showing up to work because their all hung over. It's not the cannabis users who show up only a few hrs after closing the bar or hitting the rave or even the DZ party, reeking of booze and drag assing around looking like and smelling like, shit. Then to top it all off, they stand around bragging all about how fucked up they were and all the stupid human tricks they did last nite, in front of the TDM's /students. Or in some cases have to be woke the fuck up off a dz couch in the main office area in front of everyone. The cannabis users, went to bed at a reasonable time, got up on time, have all be up for hrs, shit, showered, shaved and been working already for the last few hours cleaning up the shit the drunks left laying around, packing the gear the drunks left unpacked because their in too big a hurry to start partying at the end of the day. The cannabis users are by far a better staff members to have around then those who drink and use real drugs. And now with 17 states, allowing for card MMJ holders and it looks like more to follow soon, here in the States and other parts of the world that now makes for a interesting problem for some people and businesses. Why would it cause problems for employers? Carry a medical card doesn't give you a pass. Test dirty and your not working for me and I'm a recovering junky. You can choose to get high or you can choose to work. Seems like a pretty easy choice and personally that should be the only choice no reason to put people in jail for it. Get high don't get to work don't get to drive. That's my answer to the problem. This would not be legal in some states that have anti discrimination rules written into their MMJ laws. Tandem guys would be easy though, just report them to the FAA for using MMJ and they would lose their medical. im pretty sure there is absolutely no protection for anyone using Dope when it is a requirement to be drug free especially in any field that is dangerous and or people's lives are at stake. Could be wrong the communist republic of califuckedup might have something retarded like that. MAKE EVERY DAY COUNT Life is Short and we never know how long we are going to have.
