Participant[quote=PatentGuy]Obama made no secret during his campaign that he was all about wealth redistribution. He was overwhelmingly elected, so I assume people who voted for him were OK with his plans for wealth redistribution. Did you vote for him? If so, you got what you voted for.[/quote]
Which is why, as much as I hated McCain I could never have voted for Barry…

I HAVE a HDHP but no HSA (I don’t have “wages” to withold an HSA from). I just don’t think it’s right to raise the premiums of a HDHP (which only has a limited 100% “preventative-care” benefit) to exorbitant levels on an individual policyholder who has never tapped into their post-$8,000 ded. hospital benefit. My ins. co. has been doing nothing but making a sizable profit off me for the last few years. I understand the “age-group” pricing but feel like my record alone should speak for MY current premium and not other insureds’ (or soon-to-be-insureds’) records.[/quote]That’s a high deductible for a HDHP…and I don’t think that you have to have *wages* in order to contribute to an HSA. I’m self employed and although I pay myself a salary, my company pays my HSA contribution every month as part of my medical benefit. Both the premiums and the HSA contribution end up being medical benefits at the end of the year and are a line item deduction.

Here’s several. Note that the text book that is frequently cited in many of these articles portrays Islam as a peaceful religion and curiously omits anything remotely negative. Christianity isn’t given such a pass and most of the discussion of Christianity is done in with a negative tone.

http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m1571/is_6_18/ai_83144710/Despite some of the ‘rebuttals’ I’ve seen to these articles it is confirmed that they aren’t just teaching Muslim history, they are having students memorize verses from the Koran and pray to Allah as well as dressing like Muslims, adopting Muslim names and planning trips to Mecca. How many of these schools have the same students learn passages from the Bible and have the students pray to God?

Bottom line, the Tea Party wants Christianity taught in schools. That’s what they are after.[/quote]Your liberal friends in the CA school system want to teach Islam in school. Do you have a problem with this?
