You mean we could have imposed a 1% PTT when we sold and saved up for the Bugatti Veyron? At the market peak, you could have had bidding war on the PTT.
I just don’t have any imagination.

“PTTs that give developers, non-government entities and individual property owners the power to tax. The practice is allowed due to a gap in California law that lets developers and other private sellers to impose PTTs on home buyers every time the home is sold with no oversight, no accountability and no limit on the amount of the tax, or how many of these taxes can be “piled” onto the same home.

[quote=briansd1]I can’t help w/ Sprint and Verizon phones because I don’t know if a Sprint phone will operate on the Verizon network or vice versa. But Sprint and AT&T will not work on most networks overseas.

But T-Mobile and AT&T phones can work on both networks and GSM networks around the world.

SK in CV is correct, if you have a T-Mobile phone and an account w/ them, just call customer service for the unlock code. Same goes with AT&T.

They will not unlock the smart phones such as the Blackberry or the iPhone. Don’t know about BB but for the iPhone go to:

I personally don’t want regulation but education.

If people choose to eat the junk and be unhealthy, that’s their business and their own damn fault.

True.. but with Universal Health Care.. we all will be paying for it. Even if you decide to be healthy and take time to exercise, you’ll be paying for those who decide not to, to have a bad diet and be couch potatoes.[/quote]

You mean you health care premiums at your company are half those of your obese chain-smoking diabetic Rush/Moore lookalike co-workers today?

No, they are almost always identical except at a few firms where smoking is targeted, but premium difference is only few hundred/year.

Remember, the average Gov’t employee makes Moore look like Lance Armstrong and you pay for their health care.

Anyone who says they don’t want a fat tax (or Allan’s re-education boot camp) doesn’t realize that what your obese co-worker does directly affects your premiums. Small firms that have high claims get booted through massive hikes.

The Business Roundtable projects that health care costs will double in 10 years.
Guess that will make USA super competitive; all the jobs will come here.
So get over your false pretense of freedom unless you want 12% UE forever.

BTW, sugar is much more addictive than tobacco.
