This was my breakfast Sunday. It don’t get any better than that.
Now some political bullshit I will, more or less, allow to speak for itself.

Yes, that is exactly who
you think it is.
I once worked in a warehouse and would have to ship massive fan belts. Some of the industrial kinds were two inches thick and 20' long and DID NOT want to fit in any box.
Then the old pro taught me
the trick. You lay the fan belt out on the floor, lean down and grab it with
two hands, palms up about two or three feet apart, then flip it in the air and
as it falls you place one hand over the other with palms down. That, Gentle
Reader, is how you get them coiled like the picture above.

Many years ago the Supreme
Court ruled that the government had the right to record the addresses of your
outgoing mail and the return addresses of your incoming mail. It was stated
that as soon as you put it in a mail box you had no right to assume any privacy
rights.

Not to brag, but when I was
in Germany I had a lot of German girlfriends. Several times I would ask them to
explain various cartoons and such from magazines. I would just look at them and
say, “That’s not even funny.” And most of them agreed with me.

Tell Bernard, that if you lift the cap on social security you will be paying 40% of that persons salery when they turn 67 till they die. The rich can afford to live a long time
I'm sorry it's early in the morning, but I don't understand. Here's what I think it's similar to:
In South Carolina they imposed a special tax on new car sales with the thinking being that if you can afford a new car, then you can afford a couple hundred dollars to fix the roads or whatever. But they capped it at $300, so my Toyota's tax is the same as your top of the line Mercedes even though it costs three times as much.
I think Social Security ought to be a flat out percentage of ones income. Is that a bad thing?
I think what the previous anon is saying, you get out what you put in. The rich guy would get all the money back when he started to collect. Isn't that how it's supposed to work? A forced retirement plan?
So why not call it a Retirement Insurance Policy? You pay your premiums to protect you if you can't afford to survive when you get too old to work. Just like auto or home insurance, if there are no problems then you do not get your money back. For example, Bill Gates.
I agree with you Sir Ralph tax them up to their maximum income on social security but then put a means test on the payout.
The rich will change how they get paid. Like stocks so they will pay tax only when they sell or take a dividend and no fica. You wat a fair tax have a national salles tax on everthing but food from grocery stores and rent and medicine. I live on a couple of mil i inherited and its in a plain savings account pays .05%. Fuck the poor bastards.
I have long supported the federal sales tax. It could be adjusted weekly if need be to keep the same money flowing in. It would tax bank robbers, drug dealers and big bankers who have five lawyers and an equal number of CPAs to make sure they pay no taxes. You buy something, you pay the tax.
Now I understand that there must be exemptions. I am not sure about that, but haven't given it much thought. Why should the poor family buying beans and flour pay the same (0) tax as the family buying pounds of caviar and goose liver? Same with rent. Exempt rent and that 1 million a month Fifth Avenue apartment goes untaxed. I agree with medicine exemption.
