Considering the fact that the govt. prints billions of dollars out of thin air to pay for ungodly war bills, paying taxes can feel pretty bad.

Ever ask yourself how does money actually grow? Where does the surplus of dollars actually come from? What is the source? What dictates the amount of money in the economy 10 years ago vs. the amount today?

Something to ponder...

Well yeah, we all know who actually prints the money and what not. How does the Federal Reserve grow is money? How does it get injected into circulation? To where and to whom? Who says "ok, let's inject 5 billion into the nations cash flow this year" ?.

(BTW, the are a lot of unknowns regarding the Fed Reserve. The name is misleading to begin with. I believe it's setup as a private corporation. Who really owns and runs it?)

haha i already spent mine on new tires and some other small things for the bike. I wish i could dictate what i wanted MY tax money spent on.. the money they keep.

I would tell them to repave all the roads near my house so its a smoother ride ;D

Okay, count me in. 2005 is the first year I've had to file for since 2001. Sure glad I CAN work, ride, etc again. I ride 5 days a week, rain or shine, cold, warm, even snowing a week or so ago. Got a few missed years to make up for...on the job injuries truly suck.

They're repaving Redondo Beach Blvd in Gardena. Right now it's had the old asphalt removed and the underment deeply grooved every which way but loose; which is what it does to the bike -- Thumper is dancing all over the place.

Been there, done that, bought the t-shirt. Had back surgery in '02, didn't heal right and couldn't work for 2 years. Nice to finally be able to work again and do the things one likes to do!
