Skimmed the basics and it looks good.  However, lots of reading to do, and I want to try that calculator!

Maryland imposed a "Millionaires Tax" last year projecting additional revenue for the state. (Guiness Beer Commercial Slogan Coming)..

Well, the amount collected by the Maryland Millionaires, went DOWN.

Why?

THEY LEFT THE STATE, WENT TO VA. or PA, OR WHEREVER THE TAX IS LOWER!

Imagine that.

This is how government thinks......... Say it with me with a mild cockney British accent:

BRILLIANT!

Keep taxing those evil rich right out here, keep taxing the "middle class", and watch out for the revolt. Beck stated this morning, if just 1million people refused to pay any Federal Income Taxes, would the gov't be able to absorb the cost of prosecuting and imprisoning 1 million people?

How about 5 million? or 10?

Slowly I turn,.........

Yes, kind of like a Ponzi Scheme by our own gov't. They persecute the wealthy, until the wealthy leave, than the pyramid collapses.

Why are yachts registered in the Cayman Islands, Georgetown, and even Wilmington, Delaware?

To escape the capital punitive gains imposed to the wealthy of this country that employ more people than BHO can ever understand.
