Not accustomed to having "real world" days off...In my life before would already be at work checking the lot, revin' up the sales people and getting the daily pounding from owners and/or GM about getting volume or gross up. Whichever way the P and L winds were blowing that week. My thoughts now roll to the concern of the day...namely Healthcare revision. Should this be our primary concern right now...

I admit to being a mere product of public education, and have never been that bright. Still I wonder why it is but a few people that seem to realize that the daily news is rife with mild hysteria and obfuscation. With unemployment at a 25 year high and two of our economic power industries in the toilet, (housing and auto ) its a wonder why more peeps are not finding out how the Fair Tax being enacted would over night make us again the economic giant we once were.

Think about it, with only the repeal of the 16th amendment (the required first step) America would again become the #1 tax haven in the world. Go ahead, watch the media's headlines and reports concerning the "industrial giants" sending their labor hours for manufacture and assembly to the third world nations not to mention the ones with questionable loyalties to our sovereignty. (Can you say Mexicohttp://www.breitbart.tv/mexican-flag-wearing-la-raza-member-attacks-texas-town-hall-attendees/) Pine for the wretched souls working for a pittance in wages while the great American company ravages and pollutes their lands. Who else is fed up with these stories rather than the interviews with the decision-makers as to why it is so much more advantageous to corporate America to dole out these facilities avoiding needless Federal regulation and outrageous tax burdens. Yeah, you folks are right...fixing the best healthcare system in the world is so much more important. Forget simple fixes like tort reform and portability of coverage. NO, the lobbyist groups have worked to hard to ensure their stake on the two biggest aspects for the cost of health insurance, namely mal-practice and less competition.

Tax revenue would be at an all time high with a consumption based tax if for nothing else, Americans would instantly be taking home on average 28-30% more pay. Not to mention the collection of the underground incomes from the least of which is the illegal aliens, but the numerous tax cheats hiding income with cash only businesses and storefront tax shelters for extended families regardless of their race...


There is so much more but my musings are minimized by my non-college trained mind...

LAUGHING OUT LOUD!!!!

I end today with a National Security concern of a mere tax paying father of five....

How much longer can I tolerate working for illegals pouring over our borders in preparation for the next great "dry foot" type pardon (My hero Reagen, you missed on this one) of crimes against our sovereignty and security, much less wonder how a "public option" will cover them with my Federally appropriated tax dollars while their "unregistered income" vanishes in Western Union transfers and cash transactions.

I have more but the Holiday grows old.... I leave you to ponder this labor day.....Are you truly calling your Congressman or Senator on the right subject?????
