12. Tax breaks to towns that convert wetlands to non-wetland "parcels"?? |
|
Yes, this is pure evil...
•Wetlands - Gives tax preference to municipalities who convert existing wetlands to non-wetland parcels. In addition, such areas would also be exempt from water quality standards applicable to wetlands, provided that area is used for business.

most everything will be on the line. Any not seeing this aren't paying attention to what is going on ... this is a test to see how far they could get. It's a trend-line. ... better be prepared to give up company paid health benefits too. Just give it sometime. Megabucks are watching.

9. If I were a teacher or nurse I'd strike just over the small excerpt below |

Edited on Thu Mar-10-11 07:21 PM by Tx4obama
Retirement and Health Insurance Contributions -
* Employee pays any required contribution in excess of 5% of earnings. Executives and elected officials will not be required to make any additional contribution. Employees who are entitled to additional contributions for negotiated benefit increases, will have to contribute an additional amount. * Repeal authority for state and local employers to pay all or part of employees' contributions unless the employees are police, firefighters, state troopers or state inspectors. * Employees required to make contributions would begin making them on the first payday after March 13, 2011. If the withholding can't be implemented in time, employees will be subject to make-up withholding until all amounts are caught up.
LOOKS like the GOP lawmakers put in an exemption for EXECUTIVES AND ELECTED OFFICIALS so 'they' don't have to pay anything for 'their own' benefits!

11. As I said - cold hard ugly rape |

I noticed that too.
You know....the bill is so odiously offensive...one has to wonder....is he deliberately trying to hoist an open revolt?
