Tax us for something they want to shut down in case of emergency.
lets see how fast they can destroy internet business.
I wonder how many lp family members will refuse to pay the taxes, just on principle alone.? could that mean a drop in premium membership?

Gee, I thought families making less than $250,000 would see ZERO tax increases? Ha, ha, good one. That was a CAMPAIGN promise, not a REAL promise, for goodness sake!

Todd, it seems to me they want everyone to make less than $25,000 a year .
Eventually, people will start making drastic lifestyle changes and that means keeping the T.V. turned off and brand names will go by the wayside, all those , pundits , reporters, journalist making big dollars off ad revenues will change their tune when their income level drops. Let's take a sports example...the folks here are not buying the name jerseys for favorite teams and players like they used to, we are not going to the stadiums hungry, what did they do? they started bringing in players from poor countries because they could pay them less. well, they are getting smart and demanding more money, they are getting better agents. Now if your team is not producing , your hurting. The outrageous salaries of sports players will catch up. I believe if someone is willing to pay that amount to a player he should take it. capitalism...go for it. My point is , is it will catch up again. Only it will be faster this time. I'm going to a Tigers game this month, Do you think I'll go there hungry and pay $7.00 for a slice of pizza? no way...I don't care how cute Ordonez is or how well Verlander throws the ball I'm not spending and extra $50 dollars to feed us there.
People no longer want to spend spend spend...Uncle Sam needs to get that message , and they aren't.

Thanks Sully! Uncle Sam got his ears removed under this regime. They don't care what we peons think, they care only for steamrolling their ideology and molding society to fit it.
