Not true but interesting. I enjoyed listening to the man. He was often entertaining but where he got his facts was anybody's guess. Once he wrote it down on one of his 3 by 5 cards it was in stone. He reminds me of Michelle Backman. I am still waiting for his trickle down economy to hit the middle class. I have waited for over twenty years. The top 1% 20 years ago had over 33% of the wealth Now they have over 40% of the wealth. And we still don't have the trickle. One of Reagan’s well known factoids. Not true but interesting.

Is it because i'm growing older, i'm subject to the stress of taxation? Whats more irritating to me is the fact that the federal, state, city or county tax is not printed on gasoline receipts, nor is there a price per unit at the pump. So many gas stations competing for pennies?,yeah right. My stomach has sickend from this whatever its called. Is it because i’m growing older, i’m subject to the stress of taxation?
