			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Dear Employees:</p>
<p>As the CEO of this business that employs 140 people, I have accepted the<br />
fact that Barack Obama is our new President, and that our taxes and<br />
government fees will now increase in a BIG way.</p>
<p>To compensate for this additional overhead, I figure that the clients<br />
will have to see an increase in our fees of about 8% but since we cannot<br />
raise those prices right now due to the dismal state of our economy, we<br />
will have to lay off several of our employees instead. This unfortunate<br />
economic reality has really been eating at me for a while, as we believe<br />
we are family here and I didn&#039;t know how to choose who will have to go.</p>
<p>After giving it considerable thought, this is what I did: I strolled<br />
through our parking lot and found 11 employees&#039; cars with Obama bumper stickers on  them, and have decided<br />
these folks will be the first to be<br />
laid off.  I can&#039;t think of a more fair way to approach this problem.<br />
They wanted change; I gave it to them.</p>
<p>If you have a better idea, let me know..</p>
<p>Sincerely,</p>
<p>The Boss</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>This is too true to be funny. </strong></p>
<p>The next time you hear a politician use the<br />
word &#039;billion&#039; in a casual manner, think about<br />
whether you want the &#039;politicians&#039; spending<br />
YOUR tax money.</p>
<p>A billion is a difficult number to comprehend,<br />
but one advertising agency did a good job of<br />
putting that figure into some perspective in<br />
one of it&#039;s releases.</p>
<p><strong>Answer</strong></p>
<p>A billion seconds ago it was 1959.</p>
<p>B.</p>
<p>A billion minutes ago Jesus was alive.</p>
<p>C.</p>
<p>A billion hours ago our ancestors were<br />
living in the Stone Age.</p>
<p>D.</p>
<p>A billion days ago no-one walked on the earth on two feet.</p>
<p>E.</p>
<p>A billion dollars ago was only</p>
<p>8 hours and 20 minutes,</p>
<p>at the rate our government</p>
<p>is spending it.</p>
<p>While this thought is still fresh in our brain&#8230;</p>
<p>let&#039;s take a look at New Orleans &#8230;</p>
<p>It&#039;s amazing what you can learn with some simple division.</p>
<p>Louisiana Senator,</p>
<p>Mary Landrieu (D)</p>
<p>is presently asking Congress for</p>
<p>250  BILLION DOLLARS</p>
<p>to rebuild New Orleans   Interesting number&#8230;</p>
<p>what does it mean?</p>
<p>A.</p>
<p>Well&#8230; if you are one of the 484,674 residents of  New Orleans</p>
<p>(every man, woman, and child)</p>
<p>you each get $516,528.</p>
<p>B.</p>
<p>Or&#8230; if you have one of the 188,251 homes in<br />
New Orleans , your home gets  $1,329,787.</p>
<p>C.</p>
<p>Or&#8230; if you are a family of four&#8230;</p>
<p>your family gets  $2,066,012.</p>
<p>Washington, D. C</p>
<p>&lt; HELLO! &gt;</p>
<p>Are all your calculators broken??</p>
<p>Accounts Receivable Tax<br />
Building Permit Tax<br />
CDL License Tax<br />

Corporate Income Tax<br />

Vehicle License Registration Tax<br />
Vehicle Sales Tax<br />
Watercraft Registration Tax<br />
Well Permit Tax<br />
Workers Compensation Tax</p>
<p><strong>STILL THINK THIS IS FUNNY?</strong></p>
<p>Not one of these taxes existed 100 years ago&#8230;<br />
and our nation was the most prosperous in the world.</p>
<p>We had absolutely no national debt&#8230;</p>
<p>We had the largest middle class in the world&#8230;</p>
<p>and Mom stayed home to raise the kids.</p>
<p>What happened?</p>
<p>Can you spell &#039;politicians!&#039;</p>
<p>And I still have to</p>
<p>press &#034;1&#034;</p>
<p>for English.</p>
<p>I hope this goes around the</p>
<p>USA</p>
<p>What the heck happened?????</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><tt>THIS GUY MAKES A GOOD POINT  This was written by a construction worker in Fort MacMurray- he sure makes a lot of sense to me!  I work, they pay me. I pay my taxes and the government distributes my taxes as it sees fit. In order to earn that pay cheque, I work on a rig site for a FortMac construction project. </tt></p>
<p><tt>I am required to pass a random urine test, with which I have no problem. What I do have a problem with is the distribution of my taxes to people who don&#039;t have to pass a urine test. Shouldn&#039;t one have to pass a urine test to get a welfare cheque because I have to pass one to earn it for them? Please understand &#8212; I have no problem with helping people get back on their feet. I do on the other hand have a problem with helping someone sit on their ass drinking beer and smoking dope. </tt></p>
<p><tt>Could you imagine how much money the provinces would save if people had to pass a urine test to get a public assistance cheque? Please pass this along if you agree or simply delete if you don&#039;t. Hope you will pass it along though, because something has to change in this country, and soon !!! </tt></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>&#039;Today we mourn the passing of a beloved old friend, Common Sense, who has been with us for many years. No one knows for sure how old he was, since his birth records were long ago lost in bureaucratic red tape. He will be remembered as having cultivated such valuable lessons as: <span style="font-size: 10pt;">Knowing when to come in out of the rain; why the early bird gets the worm; Life isn&#039;t always fair; and maybe it was my fault.</span> </p>
<div><span style="font-size: 10pt;">Common Sense lived by simple, sound financial policies (don&#039;t spend more than you can earn) and reliable strategies (adults, not children, are in charge). </span><span style="font-size: 10pt;">His health began to deteriorate rapidly when well-intentioned but overbearing regulations were set in place. Reports of a 6-year-old boy charged with sexual harassment for kissing a classmate; teens suspended from school for using mouthwash after lunch; and a teacher fired for reprimanding an unruly student, only worsened his condition.</span><span> </span></div>
<div><span><br />
</span><span style="font-size: 10pt;">Common Sense lost ground when parents attacked teachers for doing the job that they themselves had failed to do in disciplining their unruly children. </span><span style="font-size: 10pt;">It declined even further when schools were required to get parental consent to administer sun lotion or an Aspirin to a student; but could not inform parents when a student became pregnant and wanted have an abortion.</span><span> </span></div>
<div><span><br />
</span><span style="font-size: 10pt;">Common Sense lost the will to live as the churches became businesses; and criminals received better treatment than their victims. </span><span style="font-size: 10pt;">Common Sense took a beating when you couldn&#039;t defend yourself from a burglar in your own home and the burglar could sue you for assault. </span><span style="font-size: 10pt;">Common Sense finally gave up the will to live, after a woman failed to realize that a steaming cup of coffee was hot. She spilled a little in her lap, and was promptly awarded a huge settlement..</span><span><br />
</span></div>
<div>
<p><span style="font-size: 10pt;">Common Sense was preceded in death by his parents, Truth and Trust; his wife, Discretion; his daughter, Responsibility; and his son, Reason. He is survived by his 4 stepbrothers; I Know My Rights, I Want It Now, Someone Else Is To Blame, and I&#039;m A Victim.</span></p>
</div>
<div><span><br />
</span><span style="font-size: 10pt;">Not many attended his funeral because so few realized he was gone. If you still remember him, pass this on. If not, join the majority and do nothing.&#039; </span></div>
<p> </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The government will bail out foreign debt loans, banks and big businesses who can’t make payments with special low interest loans (ie. Bear Sterns JP Morgan bailout colluding with government, South American government bailouts …) but when it comes to a distressed homeowner, they are routinely thrown to the wolves.<br />
Property tax appeals should be on everyone’s mind considering the present drop in home prices. I found a great manual for property tax appeals at Minimize Property Taxes</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Checking around the web, I came across this innovative approach that George Carlin thought up that not only would put money back into the collective checkbook, but solve a few other problems as well. Here goes:<br />
The best way to stop using so much gas is to deport 11 million illegal immigrants! That would be 11 million less people using our gas. The price of gas would come down. Bring our troops home from Iraq to guard the border.<br />
When they catch an illegal immigrant crossing the border, hand him a canteen, rifle and some ammo and ship him to Iraq. Tell him if he wants to come to America then he must serve a tour in the military.<br />
Give him a soldier&#039;s pay while he&#039;s there and tax him on it.  After his tour, he will be allowed to become a citizen since he defended this country. He will also be registered to be taxed and be a legal patriot.<br />
This option will probably deter illegal immigration and provide a solution for the troops in Iraq and the aliens trying to make a better life for themselves. If they refuse to serve, ship them to Iraq anyway, without the canteen, rifle or ammo.<br />
Problem solved.</p>
