Long Live The Estate Tax
I have found it very very troubling over the years when I hear people whose total income for the year is in the $25,000 to $150,000 and may have maybe a couple $200,000 in savings complain about the 'Death Tax' aka the Estate Tax. They are completely taken in by the lobbyists for the obscenely wealthy who get the common folk to complain the their congressperson about the tax.
The estate tax is not a tax on the rich but is a tax on the very, very, very rich. According to an analysis by the nonpartisan Tax Policy Center it is estimated that about 99.7 percent of estates were exempt from the estate tax in 2009 when the first $3.5 million of an estate was exempt. Even fewer people would be exempt to the tax under the compromise plan.

The Terrorists Have Won
The objective of terrorists is to instill fear in their opponent. Their opponent will come to fear that everything around them is a weapon that can destroy them.
Before you can board a flight you will have every nook and cranny of your body searched. A car left in the middle of a busy intersection could be a bomb. A wrapped package ouside a building is feared just as a school bookbag found out of place.
The terrorists have won.
Denver police swung into action Wednesday afternoon as the city faced a harrowing robot threat that shut part of the city for more than two hours.
The Denver Post reports that police were called around 3:30pm after a concerned citizen discovered the deadly robot, which was described as around eight inches tall, white and made of plastic, cemented into the pillar of a footbridge near 20th and Wazee streets. Police quickly closed 20th Street between Blake Street and Chestnut Place and a tense standoff began with the tiny harbinger of death, with nobody allowed within 100 yards.
A bomb-squad robot was sent in, followed by a heavily-protected officer, as rush-hour traffic piled up around the area.
