Well, I just micturated away $58,868.13 into the loving arms of the
state and feds this morning... Now where are those fat cat deductions
that allow me to pay zero, that all the rabble rousers keep bringing
up?


Hey! You can afford it. You're buzzing around in your own airplane.
You're
not eating beans and cat food are you? :~)


I am now; I just paid my taxes. Someday Atlas will shrug; I hope it's
in my life time.

Hope like hell it's NOT in your lifetime. There's no Galt's Gulch to which
you can flee.

When (not if) it happens, it's going to get VERY ugly.

When I was in high school, a friends father, who lived through the Hungarian
revolt in 1956, told us stories of what it was like. In sum, again, you (we
all) better hope it's not in our lifetimes.

On the other hand, I recall the words of Thomas Paine who said, "If there be
war, let it be in my lifetime so that my children may know peace.".
