NEW HOMES: RED TAPE RAPE



The cost of new homes is up by over $85,000 each due to government regulations, according to July’s NEWSMAX MAGAZINE and the National Association of Homebuilders.  The rising costs are due to: building permit fees, impact fees, utility hook-up costs and building code standards.  These costs have soared over $19,000 since 2011. 

COMMENTS:

Income tax rates, sales tax rates and other taxes may seem to be stagnant, but the government will get into our pocketbooks one way or another.  It was recently said to me that only the air is free, but that is no longer true; in some form, we all pay for clean air regulations. 
 
TODAY’S QUERIES & ANSWERS:

Q. I understand that I.S.I.S. has a “hit list” that targets innocent Americans.  From where did they come up with that list?  (Channelle ~ Portsmouth, NH)
A. They probably hacked into the I.R.S. target list and got names of Christians and Jews. 

Q. Since Hillary Clinton made tens of millions of dollars as Secretary of State, do you think John Kerry is doing the same?  (Elliot ~ Port Townsend, WA)
A. John and his wife Teresa Heinz are said to have squirreled away a billion or more dollars into well-hidden offshore accounts.  Evidently, that’s what they made legally.  As to what they’ve made otherwise, who knows?  Let’s see, Hillary uses The Clinton Foundation….. Check out the Heinz Endowment Fund. 

Q. Did I hear that terrorists are planting IEDs in America now?  (Raul ~ Sacramento, CA)
A. Well, you had that incident in New York’s Central Park a week or so ago.  Then, they discovered a highly explosive IED under a bridge between Austin and Waco in Texas, which you probably didn’t hear about.  So, I guess the answer is “yes,” unless you work in the Obama administration, where IEDs are probably referred to as “enhanced pyrotechnics.”
