Crackdown on radio owners & users
Cell phones, nextels, etc. are radios.
those go too? "DooDahMan" wrote in message ... I've been reading this NG, along with several others. Lately, we have read about a ham arrested in Indiana for having a mobile rig. We now read that Michigan is close to passing a law requiring police permission to carry mobile radio gear, with a proposed penalty of a year in jail for violation. I also seem to recall something about a county in NY having recently issued a rule against mobile operating. Are these connected? Has the possession / use of mobile radio equipment been targeted for repression, in a similar manner as the possession of firearms? I don't like the trend I've been seeing in the U. S. The place is rapidly becoming less and less "free". Liberties I have taken for granted all my life are being chipped away, state by state. I suppose the problem is that the possession of mobile radio equipment (like the possession of firearms) gives a person some "power" of which the government is afraid. It is indeed unfortunate that the people are now so feared and mistrusted by their own government. I don't have the answers, but I am alarmed. I think we all need to wake up to what is happening in the land of the free and the home of the brave. It's not pretty. |

wheel once in a while! hehe -- Brian Denley http://home.comcast.net/~b.denley/index.html "Bill Newkirk" wrote in message ... Cell phones, nextels, etc. are radios. those go too? |
Mobile radio? That's what a cell phone is when it's carried in the car.

The only time I saw any limit on my right of free speech was when I was in the military. You obviously have never read Canadian publications, listened to Canadian radio or watched Canadian TV - the things we say about our "leaders" would offend my dog. They are lucky to find their office after being elected before they start getting dumped on. And socialized medicine! I have the choice - I can go to state funded medical facilities for emergency care; or, if I don't mind wating for a while, diagnostic testing. If I don't want to wait I can go to a private clinic and get my test, or other services, today - might cost me a few dollars; but the point is I have the choice despite the efforts of some politicans to restrict me. I have used both already this year and shall continue to do so. My private medical insurance - which I pay for - covers my medication, and extra hospital etc, over and obove the minimal services provided by the state. (by the way 'gaul' refers to a country. 'gall' is the word you are looking for.) Dave Sorry for the OT rant guys, but dumb, uninformed crap like that just gets to me sometimes. |

... Bush's tax rebates already put more burden on the working class who got almost nothing back compared to the rich. More misinformation, I fear, that is being spread! The truth is: percentage wise, everyone got the same percentage back as everyone else! The reason that the "rich" got more back, was that they payed "more" in taxes. The "rich" pay 90% of the taxes paid in this country. "Most" of the low income people essentially pay no taxes as they get back what is taken out of their paychecks when they file their tax returns. In fact, some of them get what was taken out, plus more dollars, through "earned income credit. That credit can sometimes amount up to thousands of dollars. This, "Greatest Country on Gods Green Earth", gives more people, more opportunity, than any other country, on this planet. All one has to do, is to be willing to work hard, and sometimes to sacrifice, in the short term, to be successful in the long run. That willingness, I believe, has been lost to a large number of people, due to the largess given to them by the social, liberal do-gooders, in the form of social welfare. Why should people want to work hard, if other people are willing to give them money for just sitting on their, ever widening posteriors? -- "You cannot invade the mainland United States.

You bring a point. Democrats have always gone on the assumption that their
constituents are to stupid to understand a percentage. Unfortunately, they appear to be correct. "Mike Lindo" wrote in message news:EZ5Qb.4933 More misinformation, I fear, that is being spread!

That is quite correct. There are really not enough of the very rich to skew

While I don't agree with everything Leonard said, he is absolutely correct about the taxes. When you compare the entire tax burdens (sales, sin, property, state income, federal income, and so on), most Europeans don't pay higher taxes. Further, because of the often higher saleries, Europeans usually have more money to spend after taxes. Yet, in spite of this, Europeans still enjoy the benefits described below. I've worked in both places, paid taxes in both, and know this to be the truth. If more Americans did the same, they would also realise the claim of "enormous taxation" in Europe is false.
