March Madness

Here we are half way through March already.. Amazing how all the time flies by. We are eagerly awaiting the arrival of our newest family member Harley... He is a whopping 3.5 pounds right now and according the the breeder he is just full of life. The kids are super pumped about it and Michelle has gone into the nesting phase. Yes I am joking about that but I know you could imagine her doing that...

Take Care,

I'm getting sick...

Hey Everyone,

I got a paycheck the other day and when I look at it I can't help but want to reach for the Mylanta. Here is a guy who claims 4 dependents total and the check was 1750 gross. The total taxes, social security, and medicare taken out on that money was about 750 bucks!!

One of my biggest bills yes I said it bills, is the Government every month. I pay the government more money than my grocery bill, electric bill, and gas bill combined each month. The Government cost me more than both of my vehicles put together each month!!

I suppose many reading this would say well your freedom comes at a price. I would agree with that and don't want to argue about military costs and security. But when I see and hear in the news that most of my money and future debt for my children is going to the banks that makes me absolutely sick. These CEO's that think they can run a company with their hand in the cookie jar the whole time should be thrown in prison. We prosecute Madoff and then let AIG run rampant with Tax payers money???

Today I read about states delaying on their tax refunds to their residents this year. Why is it that they can delay the refund? If we delay the payment of taxes we get thrown in prison? The system is really messed up and we need to get back to the basics of life and liberty.
