Sound Off for Oct. 31

A car tag ‘deep throat’

How fortunate some people are to have a “deep throat” at the courthouse like non-entitled, privileged Dave Elliot. Normal procedure is a warning from the county by mail, with a limited amount of time to correct the problem. Then, if not corrected, homestead exemption taken away. The law is the law. You can fudge it, but the entire reason one does it is to not pay taxes. “Save the dolphins “ is really not working, Dave Elliott. Send that donation to a nonprofit instead.

Brett Favre’s money

I am so happy that Brett Favre was made to pay that money back. Everyone I have talked to has told me he is a very rude person and never takes pictures or signs autographs for children. He is getting what he deserves.

Vaccine choice

Would someone please explain why those who have been vaccinated keep harassing those who have chosen not to get vaccinated? If the vaccine is so effective, why do you care about those who didn’t get it? I think you should just move on. If we choose not to get the vaccine, then we take our chances. You don’t need to try and tell us what to do.

Dave Elliot car tag

If you believe all the horse manure emanating from the Bill Elliott story about having a Florida plate while living in Mississippi, you must be one of the ones who are unvaccinated. They believe anything, too. Don’t we already know that celebrities are exempt from the law?

Listen to Biden

Biden has been on the news explaining how we will pay for the improvement bills that are now pending in Congress. Conservatives pay no attention to what Biden is telling them. We have extremely rich people here who do not pay their fair share of taxes because of laws that favor them. Biden is telling us that no one who makes under $400,000 per year, or $800,000 per year for a family, will pay a penny toward any of these bills waiting in Congress. Please check this out and support this plan that will enable us to have nice things like other countries do.

No business sense

To the person who wrote Tax The Rich: What data do you have for such a strong opinion? Have you seen gross profit rates? Do you know what a proper gross profit should be in the industries you cite? All companies start with someone taking a risk. What should the return be for someone who risks everything on an idea that might work out well? Have you ever taken a risk? I am sure you don’t have a business bone in your body.

Infrastructure bill issues

The Biden Administration thinks they’ve now done enough promising and magic accounting to claim the gargantuan infrastructure bill will be $1.75 trillion instead of the $3.75 trillion Biden proposed or the $6 trillion Bernie Sanders said it needed to be. The truth is it will be close to $5 trillion because it sets up programs as temporary that are actually permanent and obligate future years to be funded. For instance, an expansion of Medicaid or free child care for kids up to first grade. And don’t believe the deception that it will cost nothing. It is paid by taxes one way or another, which is a form of income redistribution. Permanently.

Stennis vaccine protest

Stennis Space Centers workers out trying to stop the vaccine is really crazy. They need to understand that the unvaccinated are the ones dying. They are acting like an ignorant cult.
