Eyesunblinking’s Blog

Just another WordPress.com weblog

Hello world!

Oh, whoa. It took me a while to figure out how to do this. Pretty lame, huh? Well…… Isn’t this interesting? I guess this is pretty exciting because I’ve been keeping up on this one guy’s blog for a while (whoever they are, they are a genius!! I’ll post their name later; bring a little publicity into the little blogger’s life!) but I’ve never had one myself…. until now.

Umm….. I guess I’m done for now.

Please don’t Email me about taxes…. with so many other things on my mind…

 

This is an email my friend (we’ll call him Mr. Man for security reasons) sent me. As you can see, he’s very loud and proud and really speaks his mind:

 

 

 

 

 

 

This says it very clearly!

How many zeros in a billion?



This is
too true to be funny.

The next
time you hear a politician use the
word
‘billion’ in a casual manner, think about
whether
you want the ‘politicians’ spending
YOUR tax
money.

A billion
is a difficult number to comprehend,
but one
advertising agency did a good job of
putting
that figure
into some
perspective in
one of
its releases.

A.
A billion
seconds ago it was 1959.
B.

A billion
minutes ago Jesus was alive.
C.

A billion
hours ago our ancestors were
living in
the Stone Age.

D.

A billion
days ago no-one walked on the earth on two feet.

A
billion dollars ago was only
8 hours
and 20
minutes,
at the
rate our government

is
spending it.

While this
thought is still fresh in our brain…

let’s take
a look at New Orleans …

It’s
amazing what you can learn with some simple division.

Louisiana
Senator,
Mary
Landrieu (D)
is presently asking

Congress
for
250 BILLION
DOLLARS

to rebuild
New Orleans . Interesting
number….

what does
it mean?
A.

Well… if
you are one of the 484,674 residents of New
Orleans
(every
man, woman, and child)
you

each get $516,528.

B.
Or… if
you have one of the 188,251 homes in
New Orleans , your
home gets

$1,329,787.

C.
Or… if you are a family of four…
your family gets
$2,066,012.

Washington , D.C .

STILL
THINK THIS IS FUNNY?

Not one of
these taxes existed 100 years ago..
and our
nation was the most prosperous in the world.

We had
absolutely no national debt…
We had the
largest middle class in the world…

and Mom
stayed home to raise the kids
.

What
happened?

Can you
spell ‘politicians!’

And
I still have to
press
“1″
for
English.

I hope
this goes around
the
U
SA
at least
100 times

What the
heck happened??

 
 
   

 

 

Yeah, so here’s what I said:

 

Very interesting… but those are all things that still need to be paid. If we don’t, who will? We will lose everything that has made our country great. We cannot just lower the prices of everything magically and make the taxes low- we buy most of these things that there are taxes on from other countries because we don’t have them. If the taxes were to stop or even lower the smallest little bit, then we wouldn’t have enough money to get these everyday things. The real question is, are all of these things really necessary? a lot of these things aren’t. Why do we need a hunting tax? Since when have we felt the need to go out and hunt because we didn’t have food on the table? And if it did come to this, hunting would be free (not that I’m a fan of it or anything- my shot is good, but I don’t even own a gun).

 

the point is, we should stop spending so much. Hello, people! we’re in an economic depression!!!! Why are you buying health insurance for our phones??? *Sigh*, damn it.

 

Look at this. I don’t know where I got this strange little politician gene from, but I’ve got it. I’ve got it real bad……
