I understand the sentiment of your first paragraph, but the thing about your graduation is a complete non sequitur. The quality of your graduation ceremony has nothing to do with the quality of your education, and protesting there doesn't

so, I agree with your sentiment. However, you just equated not wearing a jacket and tie with looking like a slob... and then asked someone else not to make assumptions. I'd kindly suggest that his "snob" is roughly equivalent to your "slo

If your business expenses are higher because you're buying chainsaws, then you're putting less money in your 30% "forbidden" bucket. It's a wash.

This just isn't true. I have Crohn's disease, have never let my coverage lapse, and I cannot buy individual health insurance at any price. I am an otherwise healthy, non-smoking, exercising 31 year old male.

I believe they are saying that you would have bought the chainsaw, ladder, etc tax-free already, as a business. A tax break would have absolutely no effect on the ability to afford these things in the scenario you described. The "found" m

I don't see a freedom listed anywhere in these comments that doesn't come down to the ability to make a choice. In fact, I think a pretty good working definition for "a freedom" is "the ability to make a choice". Furthermore, the governmen

Nor is that what henrikschroder is claiming. I understand him to be saying that the majority of Americans have declining incomes, adjusted for inflation, over some recent period of time. Could be true, but I'd like to see numbers.
