Let's start with the premise that as a society, certain minimal benefits need to be provided by the government: roads, emergency services, law enforcement, defense. Those ensure that society keeps functioning. The rest are social and regulatory programs: public education, welfare, environmental protection, etc.

What if we changed the model. Everybody pays a flat property tax if they own property, and everybody pays a flat income tax. Those funds pay for the necessary minimum essential services listed above, but not for social programs. Anything left over goes into a pool, which every citizen gets to draw from in equal shares. You decide how to use the draw money.

No more free public education, but you can use your draw to pay for costs of school. No more welfare, but you can use your draw. Or you can pocket it. Whatever you want.

This model provides the same benefits as the current tax system, but people don't have to pay for any services they don't want.

Could the system work?

It is a no brainer. They are not protected under the Constitution. They are planning to do harm to the citizens of this country.
Who in their "right mind" would be against this?

We Americans are fools, bleeding heart imbiciles that need to get with the program. When they come here, no insurance, no ID, no Passport, no Resident Alien card required, just come on in, and let Joe Blow taxpayer pick up the tab. Want to know what happens if you have to go to the hospital in Mexico?

And that whore in the church should be kicked in the *** all the way back to Mexico. Did you know she had been deported once, came back a few days later, got a job in Chicago using a STOLEN social security number, and is now defying a deportation order? Jeesh, how many shots do criminals get at braking the law?

Two weeks ago, two producers working for Fox News in Amman, Jordan resigned in protest of the network's coverage. In their resignation letter, Serene Sabbagh and Jomana Karadsheh wrote "We can no longer work with a news organization that claims to be fair and balanced when you are so far from that." We go to Amman to speak with producer Serene Sabbagh.

I think Bush's ultimate goal is to take out Iran. Hezbollah is one of Iran's main military ally so if Israel can infiltrate Hezbollah and dismantle them, it will somewhat weaken Iran's military power and will be easier for Bush and his Admn. to go and launch another attack on another nation's sovereignty. I really belive Israel attacked Lebanon with the preapproval from Bush Admn. Otherwise Israel wouldn't dare to attack a country considering that they just elected a new President. And their ultimate goal (Isreal + Bush Admn) is to go after "Iran" and destroy it since Iran is the only country that can challenge Israel.

There are a lot of people these days pushing Christian Fascism under a variety of names: Theonomy, Christian Reconstruction, Dominion Theology, the "Christian Nation" movement. They are zealously partisan Republicans who have more and more sway in the Party. The fact that they are using legitimate political means, and USUALLY push it without violence does not change the fact that it is an illegitimate objective. Our government was designed to be a secular one, leaving religious choice up to the individual. Government is not allowed to show favoritism to any particular religious philosophy-- that's the essence of the Non-Establishment Clause. Christian Fascists are so resentful and heedless of this restriction that they deny its validity! Such radical arrogance needs close monitoring, and our repudiation.

We did get the phone number for the space A flight for Fort Tinker in Oklahoma City. But when my daughter called for a flight, the man on the phone said that she couldn't fly without her husband, who is the one in the military. But in order for my daughter and her kids to see her husband for his basic training graduation, they need to go there without him. She does have a military ID. Is there anything else we can do, or have the rules changed because of 911?

off the earth and radical Muslims causing death and destruction elsewhere in the world and the West hindered by its moral sensitivities is it not time for US and Europe to form an alliance with India and with suitable incentives to Russia and China to deal with this problem once and for all. Lets set an example by wiping out Iran and show the world that we really mean business. If Muslim groups are going to be nasty little cowards hiding behind civilians then we need to send a clear message that any countries that harbour them will be flattened. An alliance with India would provide Pakistan suitable incentive not to interfere.

Guess who said this. Yup, it was Bush.

And no, our children are not learning. In fact, most teachers say no child left behind has been a complete failure.

I'm trying to gather articles and the like that detail or at least hint at the evidence found. For example, what actually triggered the alarm, why the group was infiltrated but they waited til that day to do anything and so forth. If you could give me a link or two that would be great!

I'm looking for things that are not hear-say or speculation. Articles that at least quote officials on what the evidence is. Thanks in advance for helping me with the research. I'm just having no luck, but maybe I am looking in the wrong places.

Or is the word "Kamakazie" reserved specificly for the Japanese?

Or does the word "Terror" serve the Bush Administration's Agenda better because the word "Terror" instills a little more Fear in people than an old word from World War II?
