Tax Return I.O.U.'s




I got my first W2 form in the mail yesterday and found out that I have an I.O.U. from the state, which means that they don't have enough money to pay me back the money that I earned. I understand we are in a budget crisis in California as well as in America, but how long until the Government can't pay us half of our returns, and then 75% of our returns. My I.O.U. only ended up being like $13.08 which isn't something to complain about, but imagine the people who got I.O.U.'s for hundreds of dollars. Right now, every dollar counts and it sucks that our Government has done such a poor job of handling money that we as taxpayers get double screwed, paying taxes, and then not getting our full returns when we need/expect them.

To better explain why California is in so much debt take a look at this article. California is filled with super liberals and hippie nutcases that continue to slow the process of what the state is trying to do by bringing animal rights, environmental friendliness, and love for all, politics into the picture. Keep in mind, people, these are the people that elected Barack.




"I think we are deeply hurting in America. I think we are deeply craving answers"
Yea. Where the frick is my tax return?


Highlights of the video:
40 seconds in. Look at the comfort their giving eachother.

51 seconds in. She is actually talking TO the trees.

1:21 This is where the best quote of the entire video comes in "Bring me to this rock, that has the most incredible life. That makes me feel alive."

1:40 The Grand Finale.

Though this group is from North Carolina, they have groups all around the nation including California. They call themselves, North Coast Earth First! I didn't mean for this to be a rant against tree-huggers, but these are the people that are delaying construction of schools, dams, courthouses, and prisons in order to protect a small population of birch trees from being murdered. This doesn't sound like much, but this delay that they orchestrate turns into delays for funding from the state which then leads the money to be put on hold therefore causing the debt that has cost me and everyone in California our tax returns.

So hippes, go wail about your trees somewhere where people actually care about that stuff like Canada or Maine. I'll gladly take my $13.08 if it means squashing a few bugs and leaves to do so.

  1. You should listen to 640 KFI at 3-6 with John and Ken. You'd appreciate their banter
