It amazes me to see the comments, did you people not read the article, or just jump in and start complaining?  You use this as a forum for some long lost cause or gripe that you have about something, and as a result, we get the same stagnant merry-go-round of senseless opinions about all sorts of cockymammy issues.  I ...more

As usual, some ninny on here (actually a bunch of them) are blaming the president for not fixing the woes of the US when it is the constitutional duty of the Congress.  Too bad more people don't know that their congressmen, setting around on their thumbs are responsible to find and recommend policy that will correct pr...more

Okay, let's get down to business.  If you want to help out on this, try this.  Call or write your congressman and demand that we start a program to solve this countries problem with our infrastructures, that we fix the problems with flooding in one part of the country and drought in the next state over.  We are the onl...more

I can't believe that people still think this has anything to do with the president.  YOUR congressmen have been setting on their butts for so long, they have forgotten that they are supposed to represent you, not the big corporations.  There is not one law that has ever been passed by a president, only congress can do ...more

If we are spending more than we are taking in, one thing that has to be done is get more coming in and spend less.  We have tried giving the rich guys tax breaks so they will invest in American, (they go overseas).   We have all sorts of breaks for business, but they don't help us out.  There is about three trillion se...more

I'll add another item here.  One time we were allow to mark ourselves as tax-exempt, back in the 70's.  I did that.  Took the money that would have been taken and invested it all year.  Then at the end of the year, I paid in the amount that was computed to be my taxes for that year.  What a pain in the butt.  If you di...more

Many good comments already, glad to see that people really like their government.  To me it is a game.  I know that I could set the deduction correctly and pay nothing and get nothing back, but what's the fun in that.  I take it as a reward for my having to file the IRS report.  I get paid back for doing the work.  I h...more

This is really funny, it's like a lot of other statistics, they happen to show a connection between things that really don't exist.  People get tickets, not cars.  I have had multiple vettes, and red sports cars but I don't really drive fast or reckless, hence, no tickets.  I get passed regularly by BMWs, Mercedes and ...more

And have a great day yourself.  I already served my time and saved your butt, so why don't you go over there and put it on the line.....
