MSNBC News Services Updated: 3:45 p.m. ET May 4, 2005 ...A big earthquake with the strength of 8.1 on the Richter scale has hit Mexico. Two million Mexicans have died and over a million are injured. The country is totally ruined and the government doesn't know where to start with providing help to rebuild! The rest of the world is in shock. Canada is sending troops to help the Mexican army control the riots. The European community (except France and Germany) is sending food and money. The United States, not to be outdone, will be sending two million replacement Mexicans. God Bless America!!!

Does this mean I won't get my lawn mowed next week? Hope that doesn't happen in India. All our 7-11's will have close and you'll never get a cab.

Did any of you see the movie, "The Day After Tomorrow" which came out last summer? My friend RJ and I went to that movie in the theater. We laughed through the entire thing. It really was a great sattire. At any rate, one of the funniest parts of the movie was when they were talking about all the American refugees rushing into Mexico and Mexico trying to shut down the borders and not let the Americans in. It really was pretty damn funny. Hey ya never know when the superpower may need someone else to lean on..even if it is Mexico!

| Huh? I wasn't implying that. I was saying that you never know when the great strength will need to lean on someone else for a role reversal. Ya know the song? "Lean on me, when you're not strong, cuz I'll be your friend. I'll help you carry on. It won't be long till I'm gonna need somebody to lean on." I'm a firm believer that every person (and every nation) has the potential for needing to lean on someone else once in awhile.

This is a very good reason to dump the IRS completely and go to a nation sales tax. The illegal immigrants are paid 'under the table' and don't pay a dime in income tax. But with a national sales tax they would pay just like everybody else on everything they buy. And their employers would have to pay the sales tax on everything they buy to supply the illegals to do their jobs.

| No no no, Damnit! I may move to Delaware in the future!!! I need that state because they have no sales tax!! LOL (I'm just kidding...I really have no opinion one way or the other on that matter...except I do like that I can shop tax free in Delaware.)

| Not a State sales tax. I'm talking about a National or Federal sales tax. Pay a Federal sales tax on everything you buy and never pay income tax again. And you can decide how much tax you want to pay. Don't like paying high tax, no problem, buy a Chevy instead of a Lexus.
