The banks charge usurous rates of interest, yet we cannot deduct one penny of this interest on our credit cards.

IRS is now aggressive and auditing at a higher per centage .It seems every family I know has one member who has been audited or billed .This country now penalises those who work hard and try to earn extra-the IRS has contirbuted to this trend

I was Reagan who eliminated the credit for interest on credit card payments, as well as eliminating many deductions for work related travel, food and entertainment expenses.
The GOP has always favored the rich at the expense of the middle class...

The Congress should abolish this byzantine tax code, the abusive IRS, and all wage taxes (as wages are just a trade, no profit made, of your skills, abilities and knowledge for money). I think it is an abomination having to sort throught ridiculous codes and forms, I have better things to do with my time.... and I should not have to pay somebody to do my taxes. Fair Tax is the only way to get rid of all this junk, get the government out of your paycheck and your private life. Vote OUT all incumbents that refuse to abolish the immoral wage taxes!

Anyone here remember when interest on credit cards was tax deductible?? I DO! Ever since this deduction was removed, the interest rates on these cards has sky rocketed to 30% or more. I think we would see some LONG OVERDO government regulation on credit card interest rates if they were once again tax deductible!!

If the Goverment can give us another tax rebate in May or?, why do they charge us so much the first time around.Sometimes I think we should have a civil war, and throw this whole Goverment out and start over, with a Goverment for the People, by the common working people!!!!!!

I don't know what I will do if I get the rebates but I will use the proceeds to fix up the mess that is comming in from my mail box (junk mostly) and my computer which has lost it's mind if it ever had one. As far as I am concerned the whole thing of communicating via of computer is a complete botched up mess.
I am sure or at least I hope the president gets the message that the average American is very confused when he or she is only trying to communicate and there time too opten when the whole thing gets into funny land of magic and no answers other than more confusion. Some how I think that logic should be the rule of the day but all the messages seem to point that funny land will win this war and the funny people will finally be in charge.
Oh my God, I only hope logic whatever you call that will finally visit out planet. The lack of common sense and logic is out of style now days and things will get even worst until logic is replaced by this magic land of foolery and dreams. But
