If any business went out of their way to screw the country like that, then they should just tax that business. They could do the research and see how many transactions involve pennies today. If your business doesn't average at least 60% (or some number) of that average, then they tax you a certain amount (based on your total number of transactions). I'm guessing that tax would force you to raise your prices higher than your competition, thus hurting your business.

If someone is going out of their way to screw the country, then I have no problem with the government sticking it to them. If everyone was willing to do their part, we wouldn't be in this mess. In this hypothetical situation, it wouldn't even be you doing your part. It would just be you not going out of your way to screw the country.

Not a bad idea either. He is right, if a business-owner did that, what would be the benefit for the business-owner? It really would be going out of the way to screw the country.
 
Beantown is coming up with forward progressive ideas, Ballou is running a political campaign, and we've all generally been in accord without much attacking and harassing.

The lockout has made Jazzfanz a harmonious, peaceable place.

God bless us everyone.

Come on, someone had to say it.
 
Why do newspapers feel the urge to print idiotic letters like these?

It's because of this type of ignorance and petty partisan attacks why our country is in the state that it's in. This illustrates it beautifully.

Obama calls for "shared sacrifice" tax cuts. Meanwhile, his own reelection campaign has record-setting income. Why is he not willing to share the sacrifice by allowing his campaign to be taxed?

He wants to change the status quo on taxes but maintain his own massive exemption (most non-profit funds lose their tax exempt status when they become politically active).

Obama would of course complain, saying that if his campaign is taxed then he won't have enough money to do everything he'd like to do. Well, yeah. That's the "sacrifice" we all make when we pay taxes. This shows the folly in the "tax the rich" mentality. If it was anyone else with that kind of income, Obama would claim they have more income than they need. Is he willing to apply that standard to himself?

So I found out the McDonald's has about 58,000 million transactions per day in the US. If an average of .02 cents was used to average up to a nickel that would average a little over 1.1 million in deficit payments per day.... JUST from McDonald's.
