The FairTax plan is a proposal that replaces all federal income & payroll based taxes with a progressive national retail sales tax, a prebate to ensure no American pays federal taxes on spending up to the poverty level, dollar-for-dollar federal revenue neutrality, & the repeal of the 16th Amendment.
The FairTax Act (HR 25, S 1025) abolishes all federal personal & corporate income taxes, gift, estate, capital gains, alternative minimum, Social Security, Medicare, & self-employment taxes & replaces them with one simple, visible, federal retail sales tax administered primarily by existing state sales tax authorities.
The FairTax taxes us only on what we choose to spend on new goods or services, not on what we earn. The FairTax is a fair, efficient, transparent, & intelligent solution to the frustration & inequity of our current tax system.
The FairTax:Abolishes the IRS, Closes all loopholes & brings fairness to taxation, Ensures Social Security funding

I'm 255 pounds, 5 foot 7 and I'm 15 years old. I weighed 288 pounds last school year, I have no idea what I have done to lose that weight, but now I'm starting to get serious about losing it. I keep looking up on the internet about certain diets, but most of them have mixed facts that make me think twice. Most sites say a diet is good, while others contradict it with the usual "body will go into famine mode" and stuff like that. My goal is 230 pounds as of now.

When a man is attracted to a woman and she does not put out easily, does this make a man realize how much worth she has? Because when he finally does have intercourse w/her is it that much more worth it?

Okay I understand that the president is not king and that this is a democracy. That is a given. However, a democracy is a system of rules. Rules that we vote on to maintain some semblance of order. Now, maybe the presidents strategy toward foreign policy has been questionable but he is the one making the rules for the next year and a half. She went to Syria to satisfy her personal issues with him, at least thats what I assume, because she couldve easily gone to him and gotten an approval. So why then, if she would do this to disrespect the office of president, should she not be charged under Logans Act?

Even atheists can answer--I know pansies are an old-school symbol, for instance. I am Pagan and wear a pentacle almost every day, usually strung with semi-precious gemstones that have good associations or beads in "lucky" colors or just beads that match my outfits. Sometimes people say "Blessed be" or want to ask me questions about Wicca and Paganism. In the Deep South and Midwest, I get asked if I'm Jewish (one point too few on the star, y'all...); in Orlando and New York City, most people know better. If you wear a symbol, what is it, and what reaction do you get? If you don't wear symbols of your beliefs, why not?

I know that love and hate are equal opposites... identical in all but direction.... but it still weirds me out sometimes that I end up getting so hateful that it almost crosses the border.


For instance.... Charlotte Church... that vile little slag. I hated her when she was pretending purity and innocence (and her voice was never that impressive)... and I still hated her when she turned tail and revealed the monster she really was...

Yet sometimes for some unthinkable reason I still want to fvck her brains out.... and I know it is because I hate everything about her.


I suppose this is what I get for still having emotions of any potency. I know that emotions only lead to trouble but some are hard to let go of.

[Excuse the crudeness of my questioning.]
