Student jumps include your gear rental. Don't do anything about gear. Welcome to the forums. "What if there were no hypothetical questions?"

Which payroll taxes are you referring to? The Social Security Tax (FICA) is seperate from the Income tax. Above a certain income, it doesn't get taken. In theory, SS is a seperate entity from Income Tax. The withholding for "Income Tax" (shows as "State" and "Federal" on my pay statements) is the Income Tax. The paperwork you file in April is the "return", figuring out the difference between what you had withheld from your paycheck and what you actually owe. I think it is much more accurate to compare total tax burden. Not just percentage of income tax. So, yes, the FICA tax + the Income tax. Since FICA isn't taken above a certain income, those above that income pay less, sometimes much less, in FICA. The result is that after taking FICA into account the "richs" share doesn't appear quite so disproportionate as it does in the numbers quoted above. Of course that can also be done to account for exise tax, gas tax, state taxes, etc. These are a little harder to account for accurately and a bit more of estimates. I am generally for lower taxes overall (coupled with much, much less spending) but I think having a more accurate picture of the total tax burden is better. Limiting it to just income tax gives a skewed perspective. "What if there were no hypothetical questions?"

We already subsidize them. "What if there were no hypothetical questions?" -
I always dislike the numbers posted in the O.P.'s statement because I think that it is misleading not to include payroll taxes for purposes of discussion. Those are real taxes as well. "What if there were no hypothetical questions?"

I've got a hornet too so I'm interested in what you think was causing the slammer openings. Were you not really able to keep control of it during pro packing due to trying to shove it into a bag that was too small? I've been told the Hornet has a reputation for some slammer openings. I have had very good openings to far with my pro-packing. "What if there were no hypothetical questions?"

I'd be surprised too, but this is only a district judge, so its got quite a long way to go. "What if there were no hypothetical questions?" -
I have no problem with anybody using thermal imaging but it should not be the basis for any sort of search. Having grow lamps is not illegal. "What if there were no hypothetical questions?"

Decided not to make the drive after the DZ decided to have a short day closing at 1. Rode the motorcycle instead. Tried to go night skiing tonight but they are not open at night until next weekend. "What if there were no hypothetical questions?"

Bill Booth founded the salvation army. I didn't even have to look that up. He had a long-ass beard, too. "What if there were no hypothetical questions?"

jeeze dude...reading comprehension problem again! But he questioned why the charity would be sifting out Harry Potter and Twilight toys, which involve sorcery and vampire themes, respectively. "I was shocked...war-themed toys and toys from TV shows and movies with far more violence than Harry Potter and these were considered appropriate toys?" ...no wonder you think christians accept violence. It is the Salvation ARMY after all. They are modeled as a paramilitary organization. "What if there were no hypothetical questions?"

Since when did tax cuts 'cost' the government?

I like your solution better than what we currently have but frankly there is no need for government to be involved in people's personal relationships at all and no need for them to treat people in different ways based on their relationship status. "What if there were no hypothetical questions?"
