Tax on You, Tax on Me
Well According to a news article from PC WORLD, the government is going to tax us on our internet usage. I hope everyone enjoys the free instant messaging and the free usage of emails.
Basically what congress wants to do is to add additional taxes to our already taxed internet. therefore if you have Dial up for 9.99 a month, it will not be about 10.50 give or take whatever increase they wish to choose. Same goes for AOL, Brodband, ADSL as well. The will not be adding the addational taxes for online purchases, but only for internet usage basically.
Rep law,ake says that "This legislation will help keep the cost of Internet access down so that all individuals can continue to use the great informational tool that is the Internet," Rep. Lamar Smith (R-Texas). How does this keep the cost of internet access down? You are raising our rates basically and but not increasing our internet access, bandwidth? I am not understanding you mr Smith.
Luck for us, this tax has been banned for 7 more years. Idiots. This is the third time that this bill has come to the senate floor .
Does this article fall under Right of Way or Righteous Way? Do you think that these persons had the right to tax individuals on VOIP? or Extra cellphones for the family. If the government wants to raise some money, go do a lemonade stand out in IRAQ or possibly bake some cupcakes and sell them there too. Bring out Troops Home and then we will talk about extra taxes.

Taking Advantage of a Situtation
How many people in this United States I shall say, would step up to the plate to take advantage of a hardening situation? If anyone knows or has polls on evaluated people on certain situations of how they would proceed, I would like to know this information. I am speaking of life or death situations. If a person had to put their life on the line, in order to save say the life of 100 people, how many would proceed with it? What if they knew the person(s)? If a person had to save a life of possible a family member or close friend, how many would proceed with that?
People are only here for themselves, and as individuals, we sometimes forget about others. We forget that we are not in total isolation from other beings; we forget that we are not separated away from others. Our world, as of any other time, needs to see this fact that we should focus on others rather than ourselves.
Here is a good example. Say a military man is fighting in wartime. He knows he can save about 100 lives, of our enemy. The enemy has waved the white flag and has given up. Now, the military man has vowed to kill our enemy on sight. But the enemy has put down their weapons and are ready to proceed with any constructive measures rather than death. What does the military man do? Does he proceed with killing our enemy to show other enemys that we, stick to our vows of killing another man to prove ourselves? Or does the military man acknowledge the fact that the enemy will convene and understand our reason for wartime, and not kill our enemy?
I hope people will understand our meaning for our existence. It is not to kill and violate one another. We are all brothers and sisters of our oldest ancestors. Let us fold our hands together with another, and let us work together. Not all of us are at war.
