		<description>Well said John.

Maralago, I didn&#039;t know that I knew any liberal democrats. You might be the only one. :)

But, as with all liberal democrats, your facts are messed up. I, nor my company, haven&#039;t given hundreds of thousands of dollars to anyone except the federal and state government. And that has taken several years.

My company owns a 32 year old Cessna 172. You probably have a enough money to own one to. It is used mostly for charitable purposes. This year I have made 50 flights in it; 42 of them were for AngelFlight. To see what they do go to angelflight.org.

BTW, the tax break for yachts, which also applies to cars, planes, and any other taxable property, was written into law in 1963. I think Edmund Brown, Sr. was Governor at the time. I willing to bet that more than a few rich democrats have taken advantage of the tax break.</description>

		<description>Oh right Strawn, those are SUCH special interests, those food banks and senior citizens.  Not like YOU, a guy who has given thousands to the Republican party. Not like YOU, a guy living in a wealthy suburb.  Not like YOU, a guy with enough money to own his own plane.  A guy whose company gives hundreds of thousands every year to the GOP. Are you hoping plane owners get the same tax break yacht owners got from your Republican friends last year?  Full disclosure is a bi*ch, ain&#039;t it.</description>

		<description>Josh,

When the economy is weakening the last thing we need is to do is send more money to our wasteful government; whether it be federal, state, local, or school district.

Although these individuals claim to be Republicans (and I am sure they are) they are really just wearing their special interest hats. They are really nothing but people or groups that feed off the system. They do not have the taxpayer&#039;s best interest in mind.

I think most taxpayers are willing to wait it out if it means smaller government and fewer government programs.

Guy, you need to stay the course.</description>
