That goes with great government and atheist morality. Now I could talk about 'gay abandon'.<br />Earlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14794620086508373660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2449793263759467650.post-28431984311113710572014-05-18T08:00:53.082-07:002014-05-18T08:00:53.082-07:00So being poor isn't a condition one has to acc...So being poor isn't a condition one has to accept forever?

Some of them are now productive working people who used the help to learn a skill and earn an income ... plus paying taxes. I also know some former students who are living off trusts and not earning an income that can be taxed. It is an "income" tax, after all. Unearned income doesn't count for much in our tax system.Yoda of Mathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03394228157396738114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2449793263759467650.post-48000204376411599742014-05-18T07:12:22.644-07:002014-05-18T07:12:22.644-07:00Just a reminder that the first 6 months of unemplo...Just a reminder that the first 6 months of unemployment is actually an insurance that companies pay into to take care of the employees they have to lay off. That part is not paid by your and my taxes. I don't know about the extensions. I suspect that they are paid by taxes, but I really don't know.Yoda of Mathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03394228157396738114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2449793263759467650.post-290690184563201792014-05-17T04:27:36.326-07:002014-05-17T04:27:36.326-07:00Poor in spirit is too easy.
