3/16    Bring back the car tax:
        http://csua.org/u/6g5
        \_ Great!  Ride Bike!  Use Linux!
        \_ No no no! We must lower all taxes to 0% and only then will we be
        able to spend infinite amounts of money on combatting terrorism!
           \_ It's too bad that you're trying so hard to destroy what could
              be a good discussion.  The tax rates, what gets taxed, and how
              the money is spent is a core issue that matters to everyone on
              a daily basis and you're pissing all over it like a baby.  Oh
              well, this topic is dead.  thanks.
              \_ Have you ever seen a political debate on the motd that didn't
                 degenerate into garbage?  I think he was just saving us all
                 some time.
                 \_ I have seen lots of good political debates on the motd.
                    Some of us are interested in that sort of thing, you know.
                    \_ Really?  Are you reading a different motd than me?
                       There may have been one or two but 99% of them
                       quickly degenerate into (or even start with) name
                       calling.
        \_ Why is this an issue?  The car tax was like that for most of the
           time.

9/2     I'm young, and stupid. Does the IRS want reporting on 401K, IRA,

3/5     My dad is retired and has no income. My income tax bracket is
        pretty high. If I open up a joint high interest CD account with
        him and the INT-1099 comes, is it possible to file it under him
        100% to take advantage of the lower tax?

        "The super rich pay a lot less taxes than they did a couple of decades
        ago, and nearly half of U.S. households pay no income taxes at all."
        And people are still complaining about taxes being too high.
