Jobs bring in tax money. Wonder how much we lost via the stupid owl, the dumb frog, the pipeline, in the coal industry, fracking in NYS...

Obama just keeps closing the doors....and the Dems hear and obey...

The Republicans better win big in the next elections. We need it all...the House, the Senate and the Whitehouse.

Leftists love taxes. Hit their websites the hardest

Facebook paid nothing in taxes in 2012 despite making record profits.

It sounds as though the commie “progs” think BIG government STILL isn’t BIG enough.

Leftists and politicians (same people?) think on-line shopping is fueled by the avoidance of the costs of Sales Taxes.

With Republicans like Goodlatte, who cares if we win?

“Does the federal government have any Constitutional power to tax sales?”

Since when has that stopped the uniparty?

The following are the seven principles the uniparty released today:

1. Screw small business.

2. Screw the middle class.

3. Increase taxes

4. Increase spending.

5. Line our pockets.

6. Steer funds to our cronies.

7. Destroy conservatives.

“Taking yet another bazooka blast at our economy and another incentive for businesses to shut down.”

The uniparty is nothing if not consistent.

“The Republicans better win big in the next elections. We need it all...the House, the Senate and the Whitehouse.”

Why? This is a republican proposing this.

Its driving both parties crazy. They all salivate at the thought of all that money they could be collecting. More free money to waste on senseless programs and well a little lining of the pockets as well.

Shoppers on Ebay will go nuts if there is a sales tax on items; not just those anonymous sellers, but family members of our politicians will end up going nuts on the politico family members over something like this. A sales tax for Ebay sellers will cause a lot of unpleasant dinners for politicians among their family who buy online as well.
