This is going to be a bit off topic, but here it goes...

Do you guys seriously still have inheritance tax? The USA is the fore running market economy of the world and you still have it? Even semi-communist Sweden abolished it recently. How many percent of the fortune do you have to give up when someone dies?

Another question, lets say you sell some stock you made a profit of. Do you have to pay tax of the profit and if so, how much?

Im for a free market and all that, but I dont see how this argument can be justified. If there is no quality education without tuition fees, then education is a luxury that only the rich can afford. Is there no solidarity in you at all comrade?

Move to Holland and the goverment will provide the hookers

Dood help me find a job in Holland and get me permission to work/live there and I'll be on a plane sooooooooooo fast.


I can def understand the anit-bush sentiment, I think ppl in USA are still pro Bush because they think that Kerry won't do any better. Perhaps the thin USA knows that the other countries don't is that both candidates are bad, wheread other countries are thinking that Kerry will be better.

Holy Giant Picture, Batman!!!
