Facebook rumors going strong so if you hate FB or think it's for the mentally challenged, you don't have to explain it to me again. I felt this was one rumor worth dispelling since Election Day is so close.
Someone made a post a few days ago asking if DUers knew anyone who claimed to be an Independent. I posted that I knew one that said she was but behaved like a true red Teabaggin' Republican. What she posted tonight seemed like something straight out of Fox News and spread around by their minions.
The last discussion before this current one was regarding H.R.4646 (
http://www.opencongress.org/bill/111-h4646/blogs). Today it's the expiration of the Bush Tax Credits and how it will destroy the middle class.
**** How about that!!!!....millions paid out by US government to deceased people, some deceased decades..mostly due to bad bookeeping...but your tax withholdings R going way up come Jan 2011, because this Congress isn't willing to extend Bush's tax rule...more back breaking for middle America.....things that make U go hummmm....

I honestly didn't know what to say and this insta-response was the best I could come up with until I do a bit more research but I'm sure there's much more to it (like there was more to the H.R.4646 issue) than my tiny little brain can comprehend...
**** I don't mind paying more taxes as long as it doesn't go to fund unwinnable wars ****. I'd gladly pay more if it went to Single Payer health care (not that crappy "obamacare" yall like to call it), Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, food stamps, childcare, public education not charter schools, etc. but alas, must feed the war machine.

**** Or prop up the Too Big to Fail Banks, Wall$treet, Big Oil, Big Pharma, etc.
Is there any truth to the tax credit expiration raising our taxes? You don't have to answer. Simply point me in the right direction and I can try to take it from there.
Yea - I know some of you can not stand Facebook, I couldn't either at first but have come to accept it as a means of communication with a wide variety of people.
Thanks
