Luxury Tax - Kerry & CA.

[carbonmarine]

Boston Harbor used to have a Thriving Marine Industry.... Thriving with a capital T .... Yacths, Pvt Ships, Boats, Stores, Mechanics, etc.....
John Kerry authored a Luxury Tax ..... ** All the boats went to Florida and the industry died....
Soon after Califonia adopted the same legislation.... Most boats fled to AZ and others registered federally i.e. Coast Guard and in the same breath most RV's went to Oregon, Az & NV for registration....
Please : If there is a Dem on the boards, someone explain to me how any of of the above is GOOD ....
Please, go ahead make my day ..... I dare ya !

Well, I'm certainly not a democrap, but I suppose if you were a government official in Florida, Oregon, Arizona or Nevada.....it could be said that the increase in revenue would be pretty good.

Have you been to ANY seaside marina in California in the past few years??? I was in San Diego bay the other day and there wasn't a bpat to be seen - I guess they all went to Havasu. There were empty marinas all over the place, and from what i hear, Newport Harbor is the same. Yea, JK really screwed us on that one!
I guess everything wrong in the world is the fault of the democrats! Yep, that must be it!
Now Carbondick, I believe your right wing christian morals wouldn't allow you to watch immoral movies from the den of you cuddy, now would they? F'ing hipocrite.

There - happy!
Rick's a nice guy, I like him, but he's always trying to place blame, and frankly, we've all got enough to go around....In one post he's talking about some porno star and how he's gonna watch it from his boat - I'd think that his "moral compass" wouldn't allow that to happen...
Now, about that beer! I'll be expecting it on Saturday afternoon!

And I'm really sure that if we re-elect GW Bush that heal strong arm California into repealing the luxury tax on our boats. Sure....

I think we are talking a's & o's.
I like a little porn now and again and I am a Right Wing Fanatic! BFD.
I want all politico's to stay out of my life, wallet and lifestyle. The Dem's just seem to want a bigger chunck of those than MY party does.
PS. Did you answer Rick's question?
Gotta Go... Off to prop test....

Okay.... stop, stop one brief second.....
What the Reps do with the whole indecancy thing is well
within the law.. ( EXISTING LAWS ) ... Summer, You've
listening to Howard too much..... Fact is, his own stations canned him because their stockholders cannot absort a large monetary hit or rather a fine ..... He's been getting away with murder on the Gov'ts Airwaves and teh majority of this Country wether you belive it or not is demanding the Govt get involved. ** Thank Janet Jackason... Besides for the betterment of his show, He really needs to go Private and teh only reason he has not done so yet is his own greed.... He want a 2% piece of hardware
sales post a certain annoucment date of the avaialbility of his show and both Corporations ( Sirrius & XM ) wont bend ...

Essex,
A president cant tell a state what to tax and want not to tax its citizens..... However , The Fed can tax the state and than teh state pass on that to the people. We as citizens can either move to a new state or effect change through legislature....
Its a funny thing called : States Rights... Its in our chater or did ya fall asleep in Poli Sci ....???
