I don't dought that one bit, but I haven't and don't expect to get any charity or handouts for any reason. I have made it all my life on my own abilities and will continue to do so. I also have no problem with folks recieving a little help, but lots of folks take advantage of others misfortune. As for sitting and complaining about no money or help get up and get r done. Had I just sit around whining about my house burning and waited for help, I would still be sitting over there in the rubble. I paid almost 30,000 bucks in various taxes last year and recieved exactly nothing for it. I couldn't even get the water line to my house. After paying the water company, which is owned by the city., it cost me an additional 3000 bucks to run a line from the 600 dollar meter to my house. Maybe I should quit working and start waiting for hand outs. Maybe then I could get something for all my taxes I have paid in the past. When I logged my farm 4 years ago the government took 30% of that right of the top(Timber Tax they called it) What is this for? Why does the Gov't and foriegn countries and deadbeats that won't work think that they should steal my money, and I should be happy about it. That doesn't include income tax on the rest of it and sales tax when I spend it. I am for equal treatment of everyone, when do you think that will begin? You can bet that if a hurricane wipes me out, unless it kills me I will rebuild and survive without any federal money what so ever. The only help they ever offered me was a low interest loan. If I can't afford the principal it doesn't matter how low the interest is.
