Bleeding heart??????????? Yikes! I can't count the number of trees I've cut down lately with this new development. I keep waiting for the good folks from "Green Peace" to send out one of their snipers in their flip-flops and Hemp britches to blow up my "gas guzzling Volvo" and shoot me as I leave my job. Seriously!

I gave it once and don't want none of it back at tax time

Love and Blessings,

This little dude will be waiting for you when you leave work:

But, hey, don't worry! If the good Lord calls you on via the auspices of Greenpeace shooting you, we'll all get together and perform at your funeral!

Just my two cents worth...drawn from the web site of the Veteran's Party of America. This is listed as Issue #4 for our Party.

1. For decades there has been talk about doing away with the IRS and replacing it with something else. There have been praises and critics of this idea, but 90% of the critics were from the bureaucratic system that created it in the first place. The other 10% of the critics were people afraid of change. Well, if something does not change, Veterans and American Citizens themselves will no longer be able to grasp hold and steer this country in the right direction.

2. To streamline the federal taxation system (IRS) by closing down more than 500 offices nationwide, which would save taxpayers the cost of rent, electricity, phones, fax machines, copiers, paper, desks, computer systems, chairs, conference rooms, tables, break rooms, bathroom facilities,and supplies, and full-time maintenance staff.

3. The 100,000 IRS employees will be placed back into the workforce, saving the taxpayers $10 billion of the IRS federal budget ($10 billion divided by 100,000 employees comes to $100,000 each.)

4. In addition to the above savings, we would also save over 5,000,000,000 pages of paper from being printed, ink by the tons, printing employees, buildings to house the presses, the presses themselves; savings would be to both the federal government and the taxpayers by not paying postage for mailing out over 200,000,000 forms, nor the expense of mailing it back in (side note - a savings of $74,000,000!). And the final savings would be in the billions of man-hours put in to fill out the forms annually for taxpayers, quarterly for some corporations and monthly for all the rest.

5. None of the above includes the expenses of the legal fees for both parties during disputes or even court trials. Additional fees for filing foreclosures, bonding agents, process servers, and when they do confiscate citizen's property, inventory personnel, legal advertisements in local newspapers, auction staff, additional law enforcement personnel for security.

6. To replace the current boondoggled outmoded bureaucratic system, a national sales tax would be implemented. This would prevent any failures to pay tax, as we would all pay as we go. No foreclosures, no letters, no threats, and no suits. This would add an additional freedom to the ones we have; freedom from the IRS!

7. Whatever is currently taxed, will be additionally taxed 10%. If you are in a low income bracket and your available spending funds are $10,000 per year, your national sales tax would come to $1,000 (side note - 2004 federal tax for a person filing single with a $10,000 reported income is $1,154) which would be taken out when you made each purchase. If you buy a car for $2,000, you would pay the state sales tax and an additional $200 for federal tax.

8. If you are in the upper bracket and buy a $100,000 car, and additional $10,000 would be added to it. If you have less money to spend, then you pay less taxes. If you spend a lot you pay more taxes. A corporate jet for $1,000,000 would have an additional $100,000 added for national sales tax.

9. All items that are currently not taxable will remain that way.
