There Is No Free Lunch

Drear Readers:

There is No Free Lunch:

To remind you, I am part owner of a taxi company. The final quarter of 2011 taxes were due on 01/31/12. In the packet I received from my accounting firm of Dewey-Cheetum & Howe, there was a new tax to be paid. Even as a small company it is in the hundreds of dollars. This is to repay the Federal Government, what New York State had to borrow to cover the extension of Unemployment Insurance.

That's right, every time the Feds. extends Unemployment Insurance, New York has to borrow the money. Were did you think that money came from? New York is broke. It had to be borrowed, with interest. Who do you think is on the hook for this borrowed money? It is private sector business. No body tells you this.

It is another unfunded mandate that business is expected to pay. It is another drain on disposable income businesses could use to buy inventory or hire people. It is another cost passed down to the consumer. It is another example of political compassion with other people's money.

Every time this program is extended, it makes it harder for those unemployed to find work. Study after study has show the longer a person is out of work, there skill set deteriorate. This make some business loath to hire those long term unemployed for that very reason. It is become so pandemic, that there is proposed legislation to ban that as a reason to not hire someone. This legislation will force business to hire the unqualified as a matter of civil rights. More destruction of private enterprise in the name of compassion.

It has turned Unemployment Insurance into welfare for the middle class. The real joke is as an owner, though I am responsible to pay this tax, should I become unemployed, I can not collect.

There is No Free Lunch Part 2:

The recent raid on the Social Security Trust Fund billed as a tax break will also have to be repaid. This year, under this administration, Social Security paid out more than it took in. This is another first for the Obama Administration and it economic policies.

How will it be repaid? By a number of ways. One, raise the eligibility limit to between 68 and 70. Two, raise the income limit on this deduction from the current 103 thousand dollars a year to no limit, so no matter how much you earn, you will always have this payroll deduction. Third create an income level where you can not receive this benefit, even though you paid into it. Simple economics demand one or all of these remedies. They are on the docket. These will also apply to Medicare, as Obama Care removed 500 billion dollars from the Medicare fund and transferred it to Medicaid. None of these will be brought up during this election cycle as both party's are guilty of raiding these trust funds.

There is no free lunch The paper must be paid. The bills are coming due now. As always small business, private sector business and the middle class get it in the neck. I see no compassion in this. This is my opinion, you may beg to differ.

In My Opinion: A "Do-Nothing" Senate

Dear Readers:

What is an enabler? It is one whose action, inactions or silence allows an action that is injurious to continue. In personal life it is one who buys or gives money to an addict in order for them to purchase or score that which they are addicted to. In politics it is one who stands by while something they in their hearts knows is wrong goes on. You will find this when an elected official stands by while one of their own party is engaged in something not quite right and remains silent. This in politics is the most common form of enabling.

We, in New York have two enablers in the United States Senate. Senator Charles Schumer, who is safe for another four years and Kirsten Gillibrand who is up for re-election this year. Their mode of enabling is silence. What are they silent about? By constitutional authority the Congress and Senate must produce a budget every year. Congress has done its duty when last year they passed their "Path To Prosperity" budget. The Senate had blocked time and time again any consideration of this budget. They have not produced any alternative budget. In fact they have not produced any kind of budget since April, 2009, almost one thousand days.

This is direct abrogation of their constitutional duty. Yet, both Senators Schumer and Gillibrand have remained silent while this President lies to the people about a "do-nothing" congress". The Republican lead Congress has passed since they took control over 50 bills, including proposed budgets and the Senate has yet to take up any of them for consideration. The truth is you have a "do-nothing" Senate. That legislative body lead by the Democrats.

While in a way Gillibrand can excused for her silence, after all she hides in Schumer's shadow and does nothing on her own. Schumer, on the other hand, is the third most powerful member of the Senate and there is no excuse for his silence. However their is an explanation. It is called "politics". He, along with the rest of the Democrats in the Senate, knowing they have a complicit media, are hoping the public buys the template of "do-nothing"Congress. Recent polls show they are not mistaken in this hope.

Media silence on the constitutional abrogation going on in the Senate have people believing that it is the congress that is doing nothing. The template that the "tea party", conservatives, right wing radicals, take your pick of invective, are blocking any kind of compromise. Compromise is not on the table. The Senate's inaction proves that. What the template really means is that the Republican will not give up their principals and give the Democrats everything they want.

That is not compromise, it is concession, and the Democrats with the willing help of the media will accept nothing else. It is time to return Kirsten Giilibrand to private citizen. By her enabling, she has proved the Constitution has no meaning, only party loyalty has meaning. You can put an end this year to a "do-nothing" Senate in November. It is your duty to do so. This is my opinion, you may beg to differ.

The Myth of the 99%, The Truth of the 1%

Dear Readers:

I was recently described as "a voice in the wilderness" by one who's opinion I respect. There is truth to that statement. The reason is voices like mine do no get heavy play in the media because we do not adhere to the common template. Page after page, day after day, and even parts of two "Bruce The Blog Goes Bazzo" cable T.V. show of which I am Co-Host along with Mayor Of Pennysvaer Community, Bruce Apar was devoted to the Occupy Wall Street movement as if they really stood for a popular train of thought. The OWS movement and their "we are the 99%" was the common template.

Yes, even I got caught up in that template. It was because alternate thought was not given play time. Now it comes out there was a Gallup Poll (http://www.gallup.com/poll/1675/most-important-problem.aspx) that showed only 2% consider the divide between rich and poor a primary concern this election season. What leads the top concern's are jobs, the national debt, continuing economic decline, outsourcing, and politicians' bickering . The divide between rich and poor is at the bottom of the list.

So why the disparity? As I have written before, the media is invested in the re-election of President Obama. So they put their weight behind his campaign of class envy. This continuing barrage of negativism is paying dividends. According to the same Gallup Poll, people are less concerned about what they have and are more concerned what somebody else has. People are actually believing that the road block to their prosperity is the rich not paying enough in taxes.

Fact is that the top 1% pay over 40% of all income taxes. More to the point, people making under 100,000.00 paid just 7.2%, while those making 1 million dollars or more paid 24.6%. I have yet to figure out how confiscating the wealth of the Bill gates, Warren Buffets et.al. would improve my or anyone else's lot in life. Here is a fact for you to chew on. The government last year spent 1.5 trillion dollars more than we took in. Yet if we confiscated all of the 1%'s wealth it would only amount to $721 billion dollars.

The outcome would be no money for investments in new jobs or the creation of new businesses. For it is from that 1% that all opportunity comes from. It is they who have the money to lend or the business that hire. It is from them that "American exceptionalism" is begat. The idea that one would, could and should profit from their risks and ideas is what set this country apart from the rest of the world.

If the majority of the envious were unhappy with what they had, that would mean they wouldn't care what anybody else has. They would do what they had to do to improve their lot in life. They would make better choices. Right now the choice they make is the world owes them a living. ,Right now this choice represents an opportunity for the class envy warriors to go out and exploit them. This is my opinion, you may beg to differ.

Just call 1(914)879-6121 and my partner Tommy, will be glad to take you in our Airport Taxi. You will also be provided with a free copy of your local paper of record The North County News.
