Instead of whining about us intelligent I-695 supporters

greenspun.com : LUSENET : I-695 Thirty Dollar License Tab Initiative : One Thread

Why can't you I-695 opposers simply pay your 2 percent car tabs and save the state from the ruins you believe it is in. I know they will continue to take your donations. For some strange reason I don't believe you thought of that.

Please change to word "donations" to "contributions". Contribution is a tax a donation is not. Thank you and good day.

OK, I stand corrected.

please change the word "contribution" to "forcibly taken under penalty of law"

We do not "contribute". Contribute means to give freely. As does the word donation.

What we have is servitude, with the government the master.

Even that's not right.

Try "forcibly taken at gunpoint." Don't believe me? Quit paying your property taxes or income tax. I guarantee you that men with guns WILL show up on your doorstep.

Or another way to put it would be "give us what we want now or you won't like the results later." This is typical when doing business with one of the five families in New York . . . or the government.

You are 1000% correct. I stand righted.
