Who says they have to get the same amount of revenue they get now?

Is the Strategic Helium Reserve a vital necessity, considering that the
armed forces haven't used lighter-than-air aircraft since the 1930's?

A constant, per-person tax will encourage EVERYONE to take a
serious look at how much money we waste.

So, your entire argument is based on class warfare?  Remember, MOST
of society's problems which necessitate government in the first place
are caused by "the poor"...the "poorly-behaved" is a better description.

If one failure is cause for abandoning an idea, then why do the
Leftists keep browbeating us with the same moronic socialism
and welfare agendas year after fucking year after fucking year????


Here's a clue, ed.  Practically everyone under the age of 30 in
this country rejoiced the last time there was a "government shutdown"
and the only things operating were the essential services "military,
police, and courts".

And if you lowered the tax-burden of their employers, these very
same people would 

a) be able to get HIGHER wages, and
b) have a lower cost of living...allowing them to put money into
        SAVINGS AND INVESTMENT, and thus achieve financial\
        independance quite quickly.

Have you ever been self employed, and sit down and write out checks
to the government for your taxes?  It's fucking ridiculous.

places that are hard to find, but they are on the hard drive, just in various

I guess morals isn't a question anymore huh? If so then neither the friend nor

What do you mean?  I just need to select the "Restore Registry" box - no
problem.  Running NT reliably or restoring it easily is nowhere near as
problematic as you seem to think.  The only times I've had to do complete
restores from tape is on systems that have lost system disks with no RAID...

Name one that isn't based on any of the following:

   [by that logic, we shouldn't prosecute shoplifters, either]
c) wealth redistribution arguments

Hint fucking hint:  Most "rich" people already pay for their own
private security force.  The police are, legally, only INVESTIGATORS.
They are not allowed to legally intercede in before a crime is committed
the same way that private security forces can.

Not only that....but...the majority of the reason for the police is
NOT because "rich people have stuff", it's because LOWLIFES STEAL SHIT.

Your argument is nothing more than "punish those who have things"
They're already paying for their own private security force AND you
are saying that they should also pay a higher tax rate for a police
force that doesn't do diddly-squat for them.

Oh, I fully acknowledge that military procurement is fucked up.  There's
never been a government in the world that hasn't had a pork-laden
military procurement system from beginning to end.

What *I* find curious is why you think that this same pork-laden
procurement system should be enlarged to engulf housing, the medical
community, education, and every other aspect of life?

By your very own words, military procurement is pork-laden.  It has
NOTHING to do with the military, and EVERYTHING to do with the fact
that the purchaser is a governmental body, and thus, subject to the
whims of politicians who are more interested in their own personal
aggrandizement than they are in actual benefit to the people.

Of course, for closet-dictators like you, that whole scenario is
your ultimate wet-dream.

How obtuse are you?  Those are PRIVATE companies.  We are talking about
the function of GOVERNMENT AND TAXES.  People can willingly purchase
insurance if they so desire, or they can willingly forego insurance.
It's no business of government either way.

1.  Are you alleging that conspiracies don't exist?  If that is true,
then why, if you go into a federal court, does one find, "the conspiracy
to ....." among the charges filed by the prosecutor?

2.  Since the existance of conspiracies is now well ascertained,
are you alleging that an organization (the whole of communism) which
vows to overthrow governments around the world, does not engage in
conspiracies?

        Are you really that naive, or are you just spewing propaganda
        as usual, traitor.

Nope.  I am in FULL support of VOLOUNTARILY SUPPORTED charities.

The problem with government handouts is that the people who are
paying the money don't have any say in what happens.  You maintain
that "corporate welfare" is immoral, but "lazy slob" welfare is ok.

I make no such meaningless distinctions.  ALL involountarily funded
welfare is immoral.

That bit about winderz "multitasking" is something that irks me every time
I hear it. I'm required to use an NT box at work and every time the box is
the slightest bit busy it takes like 15 seconds to flip between "multitudes
of different documents." My linux boxes at home don't exhibit this behavior
in the least - even if I'm compiling a kernel on one virtual desktop and
running a java program in another I flip between documents, VT's and even
desktops when no noticeable delay. This is particularly troublesome
considering that the NT box at work is a pentium 400 and my fastest box at
home is an AMD 300.

Winderz may multitask in the strict sense of the word, but barely... and
certainly not very well.
