  1. Good grief this is not a democracy, where are you from?
  2. We are talking about federal elections and you said "sales tax" in the post I quoted.
  3. There's a federal sales tax? On what?
  4. Not everyone is a tax payer about 40% don't pay. And what does taxes have to do with it?
  5. So everyone should get reimbursed for gas (or should it be Fed auto mileage rate ~$0.60/mi, what if have subway access or Uber) and time off to drive to the polls to vote? Should execs get reimbursed at their $1,000/hr rate & McD workers at minimum wage or should we all get the same? Why shouldn't everyone have a little skin in the game? Then let's just have a national holiday to vote. Why do we need so many days for Christmas, Thanksgiving, New Year's, MLK, Presidents Day etc? Let just take one of those back and give all a full day to vote, isn't it more important?
  6. maybe I misread
  7. It's true there are several thousand people in Iowa who are not "corn folks." And let's not forget the "bean folk" and the "swine folk." Illinois politics can be controlled by only two counties in the state, see Blago's re-election. That said means there can be 100 nice counties in the state.
  8. He was exaggerating.
  9. I'd expect any wrestling fans will be excused. If there are corn folk there will also be bean folk.
  10. Cal Baptist- AJ Ferrari. He is still on track.
  11. His memory is failing. He saved 12 people from cannibals by single handedly swimming them from New Guinea to an outer island. He was once thought to be a black man but after coming up from working the Scranton PA coal mine for 30 days straight, wasn't arrested. He was chased by hordes of scandalous women after he scored the winning td in a Senate flag football game but he out ran them.
  12. Where is Ban when we need him?
  13. Can Iowa afford the insurance?
  14. But it takes 3 sock pulls to go around, that just ain't right.
  15. thems the rules. If only one guy would've pushed out or grounded we'd have excitement.
  16. I'm wondering why @mspart didn't show up does the singlet not fit or could he not find his way out of the woods to the train station?
  17. Its an Iowa thing probably learned it from Zadick (think there's training film on it) he would run across other active mats in a tournament to get to the locker room after his match, even more so when he lost.
  18. and don't forget the LensCrafters deal.
  19. They can and spin the turbine to produce electricity at existing or new power plant. One of my sons was a drill engineer offshore Exxon Guyana now with a geothermal start up. They are working on first drill in Kenya. Thing about geothermal vs oil, you know the hot rock is down there but how hard will it be to drill? But if you want to lose money, invest in a geothermal startup, there's so many guarantee most won't make it.
  20. Just pointing out MP's thought of the day.
  21. Let's not let facts get in the way of a good argument.
