TAXES

Linden has long thought that our system of taxation is in trouble and becoming more troubling. Now, with our current “leadership” the unfairness of our taxation system will become more and more apparent. Why should there be such a high percentage of people who pay no income taxes at all? What does it say for our leaders when they will accept a tax cheat as Treasury Secretary? What does it say for these same leaders when a high percentage of those suggested to hold high appointive office are also tax cheats?
At http://newsbusters.org/ under a piece entitled “Open Threads” is a link to an Ari Fleischer piece entitled “Everyone Should Pay Income taxes.” I believe I also saw a link to it on National Review. This article is well worth reading.

LINDEN'S LIFE:
It was a rainy and dismal day outside to the point that Linden, until afternoon, only went out to get the morning paper. Bill Furman brought some delicious food that Barbara had fixed: Ham, green beans, corn, Jello and really good cake. With this and the buffet with the Freidman’s on Easter Sunday, I may have a hard time returning to my own cooking. Bill also brought by some letters from those at TCI in The Ukraine that I did not have a chance to read Sunday. I sent those that were in Russian to Katia and she sent them back to me, translated into English. I am so blest!

ADVERTISEMENT 4:
Linden’s book “BIBLE BASED PUZZLES” ($4.00) is a collection of 78 cryptograms, one or more selected from each book of the Bible. Answers are provided if you should become stumped.

The book “LETTERS TO GOD” ($4.00) is a collection of 53 real prayers written to address the needs of real people. After being written, they were kept in a Bible for about five years before being published. How these prayers were answered also appears, if known.

Now that Linden’s 2009 sales have financed two goats for some of the needy in the world, his next goal is to fund the purchase of a water buffalo. Order at:
