And it is a tax that punishes poor people, as poor people spend a higher percentage of their income they are taxed a higher percentage than rich people. Maybe that's what's coming to you. In my country we've had up to 430% annual inflation in the 80's, that's called hyperinflation and believe me, you don't want to experience it. People with money don't care about it, they usually know what's coming and get their money out of harms way. _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: ProFox@leafe.com Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
