You don't want to plan for the future? I'd rather know we have options for when oil eventually runs out or something major happens. Why wait until it's an emergency?

Mike, I'm not talking about drilling more. I'm talking about how great it would be to research and develop more options for petroleum-free cars, energy, etc.

A true Dem, not very reality based, answer. Some geek is going to invent the solution.

Ben hearin that for what, 30 years. Maby Al Gore to the rescue, with a new internet?

Sorry, but energy in a bottle, is science, and we all know what can power cars. Hint it's not majic, and wishes.

We were also told FICA and SS only will be deducted. I personally think this is great. I just wish I was two miles further. I am 24 miles even door to door.
So your employer will not be deducting Sate & Fed income taxes? If that's the case, I hope you're going to be putting those amounts in savings each payday. If not, you're going to be in for a huge shock come tax time in early '09.
