Only In America: The Top Ten List Of America’s Stupidity
Only In America: The Top Ten List Of America’s Stupidity
This list should make you angry and sad.
10) Only in America … could Politicians talk about the greed of the rich at a $35,000.00 a plate campaign fund-raising event.
9) Only in America … could people claim that the federal government still discriminates against black Americans when we have a black President, a black Attorney General and when roughly 18% – 20% of the federal workforce is black, and according to US Department of Health and Human Service, 39.8 % of all federal entitlements go to black Americans, despite making up approximately only 14% of the total U.S. population.
8) Only in America … could they have had the two people most responsible for the tax code, Timothy Geithner (the head of the Treasury Department) and Charles Rangel (who once ran the Ways and Means Committee), BOTH turn out to be tax cheats who are in favor of higher taxes.
7) Only in America … can they have terrorists kill people in the name of Allah and have the media primarily react by fretting that Muslims might be harmed by the backlash.
6) Only in America … would they make people who want to legally become American citizens wait for years in their home countries and pay tens of thousands of dollars for the privilege, while they discuss letting anyone who sneaks into the country illegally just ‘magically’ become American citizens.
5) Only in America … could the people who believe in balancing the budget and sticking by the country’s Constitution be thought of as “extremists.”
4) Only in America … could you need to present a driver’s license to cash a check or buy alcohol, but not to vote.
3) Only in America … could people demand the government investigate whether oil companies are gouging the public because the price of gas went up when the return on equity invested in a major U.S. oil company (Marathon Oil) is less than half of a company making tennis shoes (Nike).
2) Only in America … could the government collect more tax dollars from the people than any nation in recorded history, still spend a Trillion dollars more than it has per year – for total spending of $7-Million PER MINUTE, and complain that it doesn’t have nearly enough money.
1) Only in America … could the rich people – who pay 86% of all income taxes – be accused of not paying their “Fair share” by people who don’t pay any income taxes at all.
Every country has the government it deserves.
Joke Of The Day: Tax Time
 |
A woman walks into her accountant’s office and tells him that she needs to file her taxes.
The accountant says: “Before we begin, I’ll need to ask you a few questions.” He gets her name, address, social security number, etc, and then asks, “what is your occupation?” “I’m a whore,” she says. The accountant balks and says, “No, No, No, that won’t work. That is too gross. Let’s try to rephrase that.” The woman says, “OK, I’m a high-end call girl.” “No, that is still too crude. Try again.” They both think for a minute, then the woman says, “I’m an elite chicken farmer.” The accountant asks, “What does chicken farming have to do with being a whore & call girl?” “Well, I raised over a thousand little peckers last year.” He replies: “Good enough.” |
