Jr,
"Torone, i understand that you spend a lot more time than most listening to A.M. Talk Radio and your views are a little warped. this occured to me after the first time you mentioned being a truck driver. Everything you say comes directly from conservative talk radio, which i would consider about as balanced as a Barbara Streisand lecture on economics."

I suppose you get your information from the good ol' Communist News Network. How many times have you heard anyone call in to hold the host's feet to the fire? It never happens. That's YOUR idea of 'fair and balanced'? Pat Grey, Rush Limbaugh, Chris Baker, and Sean Hannity all allow what I consider far too many Liberal pinheads to get on the air and spout the Liberal mantra. The only one I have ever heard disconnect one of them in the last two years was Mike Savage. Does your favorite CNN personality take live calls? From Conservatives?

To address a couple of other points? you made:

I think you are slipping into a stupor of some kind. I didn't say that one employer should do away with the withholding. When it was instituted, it was supposed to be temporary. I'm saying that it is time it stopped being required by law.

'Fair share' means different things to different people. I am simply saying that the idea of a 'progressive' tax rate is patently UNFAIR.

Clinton was and is a Communist; but he didn't start the whole thing. Do your research and then comment on that issue.

I have no problem with the people paying taxes for three purposes...Defense, Infrastructure, and taking care of our veterans (possibly a part of defense).
However, taxes other than income taxes can take care of this. the income tax is being used to pay for social (read vote-buying) programs.

BTW, there is a perfectly legal way to get around the withholding. Just use independent subcontractors. You are still employing people; but you give up a modicum of control over them in order to get rid of the tax and benefits problem. Ask your tax consultant about it.
