His next door neighbor pays $60,000 a year in property taxes. I bet he's a happy camper.

As for his visit, I wounder how many of my tax dollars will be spent on his security.

BTW - I hope this ends soon as I only have two bottles of scotch left!
I'd really like to find a way to boycott having my hard-earned money being splurged on someone else. Spent on necessities, yes. National security, yes. Sick, homeless and abused, yes. Law enforcement, yes.

Luxuries and tax breaks, buy your own! There's a box of cigars I've been drooling over and I could get it if you'd just get your hand out of my pocket. Or, while your hand is down there .....



Oops, sorry for the threadjacking.
