The Department of Agriculture decided to tax the sale of every Christmas tree in the United States 15 cents. The White House was on the very verge of approving the tax. The public uproar over the proposal forced Obama to sideline the proposal.
COMMENTS:
The Constitution of
the United States reserves the right to impose taxes to the Congress. How did this thing get the green light in
the first place?
TODAY’S QUERIES & ANSWERS:
Q. If John McCain had been elected in 2008, how do you think
the country would stand today? (Gladys ~
Auburn, CA)
A. I think the country would be much better off from an economic
standpoint; he would have brought in some smart economic guys for some ideas
and, unlike Obama, he would have listened to them. You surely would not have seen this major push for socialism. Outside of that, I don’t know that there
would have been much difference.
Q. With Obama refusing the House subpoena for information on
the Solyndra case, what’s next? (Garth ~
Houston, TX)
A. The Supreme Court, which means that this information will
not come out until after the November 2012 elections.
Q. How can we deal with a media and press in this country
that distorts the news and hides the facts?
(Charles ~ Las Vegas, NV)
A. Quit buying their newspapers and magazines and quit
watching their “news.” Their declining advertising revenues will take care of
the rest of the problem.
TODAY’S QUOTE:
“When one makes a Revolution, one cannot
mark time; one must always go forward - or go back. He who now talks about the
"freedom of the press" goes backward, and halts our headlong course
towards Socialism.” ~ Vladimir Lenin
