Has any one of them ever run a business? The odds have to high against it. Most of them are lawyers who couldn't earn a real living except by sponging off the tax payers. Send 'em packing in 2010!

Earlier...Baucus and company decided that the way to pay for the healthcare bill was to tax all employee provided healthcare....with one exception...and that was union members: Union members and their families who receive healthcare benefits paid for by their employers would be exempted from a new tax on healthcare under one option being proposed by Sen. Max Baucus (D-Mt), according to a report by the Fox Business Channel’s Peter Barnes. Baucus’s plan would tax health care benefits to raise from $161.9 billion to $418 billion over ten years to fund the nationalized “government provider” of health care benefits President Obama and Democrats want. Peter Barnes told me, “There would be preferential treatment for unions” under one version of the Baucus proposal. As shown on page 3 of the Baucus outline published by Fox News under two of Baucus’ four options, healthcare benefits provided under collective bargaining agreements dated on or before January 1, 2013 would be exempt from the tax.

The talk show guys have been saying it for months, and we have been saying it for months. The name of the whatever-the-bill-is has nothing to do with it. The alleged purpose has nothing to do with it. The alleged benefits have nothing to do with it. The alleged problem being solved has nothing to do with it. It's all about power. Pure and simple. Power for them, over us. And when they gain power over us, there is only one direction for our freedoms and our lives to go. Downhill, as fast as they can manage it. Because ever morsel of food we put in out mouths of our own volition is one less iota of power they have. Even if they call it the Horseshit Reduction Ombnibus Act, it's all about and only about power. The real agenda is becoming more and more obvious.

"Deny Deduction for Punitive Damages..." So if you are sued, and slammed with a monster payout, you have to pay taxes on the Gross of the payout *before* it goes to the trial lawyer and their sucker..um..I mean client. (i.e. a $1mil Punitive Damages payout will now cost your company $1.2mil or more depending on your tax rate) Behold the Democrat version of Tort Reform. Soaking the companies for even *more* money. Yeah, that'll help. Hm. “Deny Deduction for Punitive Damages…”

I propose we spend any such dividend on nuclear weapons.
