What's Wall Street Worth? Little, If Anything
If it's a good idea for GM and what's left of American Industry in America, then it must be good for the rest of us... ===================== It is- and as long as $$$ controls Congress all ways will be- a double standard. One example=Corporations can deduct business losses from previous years going forward until those losses are all deducted-try that as an individual taxpayer and you will wind up in the Big House.— November 28, 2010 12:33 p.m.
What's Wall Street Worth? Little, If Anything
If the U.S. started taxing financial transactions, ===================== If you put a 10% transaction tax on all stock and bond transactiosn then Wall Street would be in the same boat-and feel the same pain-as Main Street. of course then there would be no double standard where the rich get all the breaks and the poor and middle class get shafted.— November 28, 2010 12:29 p.m.

Buy online. Jurisdictions are trying to collect taxes, but it isn't working well. ======= I buy online for one reason and one reason only, eliminating a 10% sales tax. I would much rather buy local, and I don't mind paying a REASONABLE sales tax, which to me is no more than 6%-6.5% I will NOT pay a 10% sales tax just so cops and ff's can retire at age 50 as multi millionaires.— November 27, 2010 6:17 p.m.
Animal Rights Activists Protest at Fashion Valley Mall
I saw the video of the dog being skinned alive on the HBO documentary "I Am An Animal" - that image is indelibly ingrained in my mind ==================== Why woudl anyone do such a horrible thing??? Why? That does not make sense. If I saw that I would kill the person doing it. And I mean that.— November 27, 2010 3:35 p.m.

I buy the majority of my goods on the internet today.— November 27, 2010 8:49 a.m.
In Case Of Continued Irritation, Discontinue Use
I'll love this Tijuana of mine. I owe that to my seventeen-year-old. I insisted that she be born here. ====================== So your daughter has duel citizenship with both Mexico and America-right? How does that work exactly, can she keep both or does she need to relinquish one when she turns 18???? I know some people, usually those who are connected, have duel citizenship (Hi Gov!!!), but thought there had to be a choice at some point......what is the law on it???— November 27, 2010 8:45 a.m.

I wish we could put a "clown tax" on the idiots who are running gov for every bone headed blunder they implement or cause!! We would be out of the red in record time!— November 27, 2010 8:41 a.m.
Where Did the Save-A-Life Money Go?
Interesting that the public isn't aware how restraining orders against parents come about. ================= Children do NOT have the legal authority to get PPO/RO against their parents. Sorry, but I don't buy that. There would HAVE to be due process protections for the parent, and PPO/RO would violate those DP rights. Like I said earlier-child protective services could bring an action, but not the child.— November 26, 2010 11:26 p.m.
Chamber of Commerce Wages
Another wealthy Prop D backer, Julie Meier Wright, chief executive of the San Diego Regional Economic Development Corporation, which gets part of its revenue from taxpayers, made $372,209 in 2008, ============================== $372K !!!! ....paid for at least partially by taxpayers. And that is just salary, I would ahte to know how much vacation and pension money she is receiving. This is why we are upside down. She is not worth $372K, not even half of that. Not even a third of that. These pompus losers are nothing but leeches on society and the taxpaying middle class and poor specifically.— November 26, 2010 4:07 p.m.

Of course, he/she is at risk in any number of ways, starting with no coverage for work injuries, and the fact that failing to pay SE tax results in tiny Social Security benefits in later life. ===============\ There won't be much SS later in life for anyone-it is a ponzi scheme. I basically avoid buying anyhting retail b/c the sales tax is far too high currently-if Prop D passed it would have driven locals sales WAY down. I didn't mind paying sales tax when it was 6.5%, but it is 8-10% in the state today-far too high.— November 26, 2010 4:01 p.m.
