STATE TAXES ON ONLINE INTERSTATE COMMERCE

Once again the devil is coming back in this recession or recovery which ever one you are going through. State legislators are thinking about how to impose state taxes(Amazon laws) on shoppers who shop online with companies that are located outside their state of residence. Apparently, States are trying to use this to make loss revenues due to the decline in State revenues. This is really bad news for consumers as far as some of us are concerned. Its ridiculous how legislators are trying to impose online sales taxes on goods and services we buy via the web. When legislators start talking about about taxes they are not going to give up unless they achieve what they have set out to achieve that is tax consumers to death even if not healthy for the current economic condition. By the way New York is among the States pushing for this measure so watchout!!

HUMAN PSYCHOLOGY IN PRIORITIZING RISK

I was reading Parade magazine last time and i came across an article that's about the way people in general view life risks. i thought it was interesting to know that most people are more scared of a shark attack than say a vehicle accident which is more common compared to shark attacks which we barely encounter, unless we find ourselves in the wrong side of the beach. when one compares both scenarios that i have already mentioned though this is just a fraction of reality about what people are scared of it gets interesting. I suppose the familiar we are with a certain risk the easier it is for us to deal with it and the lesser our level of fear. send a comment by comparing your level of fear. check this pix out which of the three are you afraid of!!! i know this scene is bizzare but whatever!!

JON, KATE & 8 THE CURRENT FAMILY BROKEN BY REALITY TV

I was shocked when i heard Jon & Kate where going through a divorce alledgely due to Jon's extramarital affairs and we actually witnessed some parts of this in reality when he was shown on TV with a bunch of swim suit models all over him. he just seemed to be enjoying his fame as a dad of 8 children and then a cheating hubby at the same time. its very sad things turned out this way because when i first saw the show on TV, i taught to myself wow!! there is hope for people who intend to have larger families but feel it's impossible to have one in this 21st century economy. i guess they just proved the case that its not doable in this day and age. perhaps if Jon had not ditched the family, the show will have been a hit show in this current economic crisis. After all there are no jobs and yet there is a lot of work to do. one will probably ask why i am concluding that the show would have been a hit show when in fact people are thinking about how to make and save money. i personally think this is a time some people will use in getting their house in order. After all this times are hard and i will rather use it to build and prepare for the future rather than wreck it! Jon should apologize to Kate rather than try to make her life miserable by going after the money. how does he expect the kids to be taken care of when he is running around with swim suit models from vegas!!

THE MYSTERY BEHIND THE BALLOON BOY

Let me start by saying that this is the coolest news i have heard so far over the week. At first when i watched the balloon saucer flying in the air, i thought to myself who pulled this off. the next thing i saw were security officers running all over the place to trap this object. the next thing i heard was that there was a little boy in the middle of this hot mess. this is interesting i taught to myself, how could such a little boy pull this off all by himself. the next thing i heard was the media speculating about what the boy had seen that made him act out like that. i taught to myself here we go again UFO's!!! someone has seen those goofy devils from space again and we are going to relive all the similar incidents that had occurred in the past. today i was watching the morning Joe and the young reporter that gives the interesting briefing on news of the day agh! i can't remember his name, he usually sits mike bannacher on msnbc's morning Joe show, anyways! made a slight attempt to peace together the big lie that the wonder boys parents had put together to deceive most americans who already have suspicions about UFO's and also to reinforce the believes of those who actually believe these UFO's exist. i personally think the family should not be penalized or harassed for what they pulled off. i think they should be left to do what they feel like. after all in difficult times like this, it makes life a little fun to have this incidents grabbing the media headlines! we will be looking forward to more action clips from the Henne family. more grease to their elbow!! watch this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wI6UONWCq7A
