I'll bet blacks in Africa also thought that there was no way they would be enslaved either. They thought it was straw man.

So.... Are you a sole proprietor or an S-Corp? Or do you even report what you make to the government. If you are not a s-corp you don't have a clue so don't bother.

I report what I make through a 1099, as a sole proprietor.

Indeed. I and my talented wife are individuals, people, human beings - one male and one female of the species - and these two humans are an s corp. All of the rights, privileges, liabilities, obligations and responsibilities flow from such. So, I guess one could say, we are both it and us.

S corporations are corporations that elect to pass corporate income, losses, deductions and credit through to their shareholders for federal tax purposes. Shareholders of S corporations report the flow-through of income and losses on their personal tax returns and are assessed tax at their individual income tax rates.

So you think Republicans and Democrats are the exact same thing as they were during the slavery era? Then you need to go learn more about this country's political history.

Correct! Slavery is well outlined in Christianity, Hindu, Budist, Islam and all other religions.
Jewish Hebrew, knew full well about slaves.

And I counter that the Senate under Reid has abused HIS power.

How many years did we go WITHOUT the Senate submitting a budget?

How many bills has the house sent to the Senate only to have Reid through them in the trash instead of assigning them to the respective Senate Committees for discussion and the vote on them?

The dems control every committee and probably voted them down anyway but, we will never know if the dems and the repubs could have come up any compromises because Reid wouldn't let them see the light of day.

Reid REFUSES ANY talks about reducing the spending.

This is true; but, this is a case of "if you repeat a lie often enough ..."

They are hoping to shift the bame. It isn't really working.

Who elected the majority in the House? Americans who overwhelmingly oppose ObamaCare!

So far, Obama and Harry Reid are the only ones refusing to compromise.
