When a person walks into a government building and starts shooting,the question that is always asked is:"what was wrong with him"?The question that SHOULD be asked is"What was done to him to push him past the breaking point"(that we all have).The above is a good example of the answer.
Well, Bill...

What if they taxed flower arranging clubs ... and violin recitals. How about bird watching and ballet ..oh, I see they got dance studios. But what about taxing art in the park, kite flying and raising orchids?

How on earth could this affect a railroader? What are you thinking? These people deserve to be taxed just on account they don't get enough exercise in their regular jobs because they aren't really jobs. Their main exercise is when they don't get a good parking spot and have to walk an extra 100 feet to their desk.

What is wrong with you ...or should I be asking what pushed you past the edge to make you post this?

Just wondering. Inquiring minds want to know.

Great thread, by the way.
