You have two families: “Joe Legal” and “Jose Illegal”. Both families
have two parents, two children, and live in

Jose Illegal also works in construction, has NO Social Security Number,
and gets paid $15.00 cash “under the table”.Ready? Now pay attention…

Joe Legal: $25.00 per hour x 40 hours = $1000.00 per week, or $52,000.00
per year. Now take 30% away for state and federal tax; Joe Legal now has
$31,231.00.Jose Illegal: $15.00 per hour x 40 hours = $600.00 per week, or
$31,200.00 per year. Jose Illegal pays no taxes. Jose Illegal now has
$31,200.00.

Do you get it, now?

If you vote for or support any politician that supports illegal aliens…You are part of the problem!

The first four men (the poorest) would pay nothing.

The fifth would pay $1.

The sixth would pay $3.

The seventh would pay $7.

The eighth would pay $12.

The ninth would pay $18.

The tenth man (the richest) would pay $59.

So, that’s what they decided to do. The ten men drank in the bar every day and seemed quite happy with the arrangement, until one day, the owner threw them a curve. ‘Since you are all such good customers, he said, ‘I’m going to reduce the cost of your daily beer by $20. Drinks for the ten now cost just $80.

The group still wanted to pay their bill the way we pay our taxes so the first four men were unaffected. They would still drink for free. But what about the other six men - the paying customers? How could they divide the $20 windfall so that everyone would get his ‘fair share?’

They realized that $20 divided by six is $3.33. But if they subtracted that from everybody’s share, then the fifth man and the sixth man would each end up being paid to drink his beer.

So, the bar owner suggested that it would be fair to reduce each man’s bill by roughly the same amount, and he proceeded to work out the amounts each should pay.

And so:

The fifth man, like the first four, now paid nothing (100% savings).

The sixth now paid $2 instead of $3 (33%savings).

The seventh now paid $5 instead of $7 (28%savings).

The eighth now paid $9 instead of $12 (25% savings).

The ninth now paid $14 instead of $18 (22% savings).

The tenth now paid $49 instead of $59 (16% savings).

Each of the six was better off than before. And the first four continued to drink for free. But once outside the restaurant, the men began to compare their savings.

‘I only got a dollar out of the $20′, declared the sixth man. He pointed to the tenth man,’ but he got $10!’

‘Yeah, that’s right’, exclaimed the fifth man. ‘I only saved a dollar, too. It’s unfair that he got ten times more than I!’

‘That’s true!!’ shouted the seventh man. ‘Why should he get $10 back when I got only two? The wealthy get all the breaks!’

‘Wait a minute,’ yelled the first four men in unison. ‘We didn’t get anything at all. The system exploits the poor!’

The nine men surrounded the tenth and beat him up.

The next night the tenth man didn’t show up for drinks, so the nine sat down and had beers without him. But when it came time to pay the bill, they discovered something important. They didn’t have enough money between all of them for even half of the bill!

And that, boys and girls, journalists and college professors, is how our tax system works. The people who pay the highest taxes get the most benefit from a tax reduction.

Tax them too much, attack them for being wealthy, and they just may not show up anymore. In fact, they might start drinking overseas where the atmosphere is somewhat friendlier.

For those who understand, no explanation is needed.

For those who do not understand, no explanation is possible.

You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong.

You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift.

You cannot lift the wage earner up by pulling the wage payer down.

You cannot further the brotherhood of man by inciting class hatred.

You cannot build character and courage by taking away people’s initiative and independence.

You cannot help people permanently by doing for them, what they could and should do for themselves.

1. A murderer is condemned to death. He has to choose between three rooms. The first is full of raging fires. The second is full of assassins with loaded guns. The third is full of lions that haven’t eaten in 3 years. Which room is safest for him?

 
2. A woman shoots her husband. Then she holds him under water for over 5 minutes. Finally, she hangs him. But 5 minutes later they both go out together and enjoy a wonderful dinner together. How can this be? 

3. What is black when you buy it, red when you use it, and gray when you throw it away? 

4. Can you name three consecutive days without using the words Wednesday, Friday, or Sunday? 

5. This is an unusual paragraph. I’m curious as to just how quickly you can find out what is so unusual about it. It looks so ordinary and plain that you would think nothing was wrong with it. In fact, nothing is wrong with it! It is highly unusual though. Study it and think about it, but you still may not find anything odd. But if you work at it a bit, you might find out. Try to do so without any coaching! 

If you would like to know the answers, you will need to leave a comment indicating you want the answers.  This is the only way I wil be able to judge the intelligence of the people that read this. 

I opened one this morning that was fun to view as well as entertaining as well as thought provoking. The one thing about us humans, we all have choices.  Even choosing not to choose is a choice. 

Most of us hate to exercise and it just doesn’t fit into our busy lifestyle.  Now if exercise was more fun and it fit in to our everyday routine, perhaps we would exercise more.  This concept can be applied to other activities as well.   

Why do we have so many poor people in the world?  I believe it is partly because they just don’t know any different; they lack the education to pull themselves up. 

Perhaps they lack the motivation to expend the energy required to take inspired action.  Perhaps outside forces want to keep them that way.  After all it is much easier to control an ignorant person than a knowledgeable person. Back to my email.

I have never witnessed such uproar with more and more people taking some sort of action to bring back the pride of being an American and restoring the values we have lost over the past 100 years.  The below story says it very well and I am honored to share it with you. 

***********

From A Texan: 

My great grandfather watched as his friends died in the Civil War, my father watched as his friends died in WW I and WW II, and I watched as my friends died inVietnam.   None of them died for the Mexican Flag.  Everyone died for the U.S. flag. 

Just this week, here in Texas, a student raised a Mexican flag on a school flag pole; another student took it down.  Guess who was expelled…the kid who took it down. 

Kids in high school in California were sent home this week on Cinco de Mayo because they wore T-shirts with the American flag printed on them.  Enough is enough.    The below e-mail message needs to be viewed by every American; and every American needs to stand up for America.   

We’ve bent over to appease the America-haters long enough.  I’m taking a stand.  I’m standing up because the hundreds of thousands who died fighting in wars for this country, and for the U.S. flag can’t stand up. 

If you agree, stand up with me.  If you disagree, please let me know.  I will gladly remove you from my e-mail list.  And shame on anyone who tries to make this a racist message.  

 A Map Of My Country:

 Let me make this perfectly clear! 

  

THIS IS MY COUNTRY! And, because I make This statement
 DOES NOT 

 Mean I’m against immigration!!!
 

YOU ARE WELCOME HERE, IN MY COUNTRY! 

Welcome! To come through legally: 

 1. Get  a sponsor! 
 2. Get a place to lay your head!
 3. Get a job!
 4. Live By OUR Rules!
 5. Pay YOUR Taxes!
 
 And
 
 6. Learn the LANGUAGE like immigrants
 have in the past!!! 
 

AND

 7. Please don’t demand that we hand over our lifetime
 savings of Social Security Funds to you.
 If you don’t want to forward this for fear of offending someone,
 

Then YOU’RE  PART OF THE PROBLEM! 

When will AMERICANS STOP giving away THEIR RIGHTS???
 We’ve gone so far the other way…
 bent over backwards not to offend anyone. 
 But it seems no one cares about the  

AMERICAN CITIZEN  that’s being offended! 

 WAKE UP

 If You agree…. Show this to Your Friends. 
 
   

Then you will be asked to click on a link which will take you to the presentation.

Sorry about the extra steps.  For those who do take the extra 12 seconds, you will be thankful you did.

We talk on our phones while driving even though we know it is against the law because the distractions could cause accidents. 

That is what this letter is all about.  Well, that and a possible solution. 

First, the letter: Please share the letter below. You just might save a life! 

Borrowed quote: You can never go wrong doing right.

Her last call was from a new cell phone… Do you see the motorcycle?

  Now do you see it?

The Honda crotch rocket rider was traveling at approximately
85 mph.  The VW driver was talking on a cell phone when she
pulled out from a side street, apparently not seeing the
motorcycle.  The rider’s reaction time was not sufficient
enough to avoid this accident.  The car had two passengers
and the bike rider was found INSIDE the car with them.
The Volkswagen actually flipped over from the force of impact
and landed 20 feet from where the collision took place.
 
All three involved (two in the car and the bike rider) were
killed instantly. This graphic demonstration was placed at
the Motorcycle Fair by the Police and Road Safety Department.Pass this on to car drivers or soon to be
new drivers, or new motorcycle owners
AND ESPECIALLY EVERYONE YOU KNOW WHO HAS A CELL PHONE!!!!!

A picture is worth a thousand words. Save a life!Stop talking on Cell phones and Texting while trying to drive.   The life you save may be your own…or mine. 

Now for the solution.  I recently was introduced to a company who is offering pre-paid cell phone services with no contract and no credit check.  Their rates are better than any of the big 4 cell phone companies and their coverage is as good as or better than what you now have because they use the same networks as you currently use for your service. 

However, that will only save you money.  It won’t save your life.  What will save your live it a neat little gadget they will also be offering, which will let you hear your text message and let you send text messages verbally.  And of course you can also talk on your phone without holding it in your hands.  Now that is safety. 

The company is just starting up so you can enjoy a free look at all they offer without spending any money.

Oh, did I mention the best part? I meant the second best part. The best part is keeping you and your loved ones safe.

The second best part is by sharing this new business model with your friends and family, you can receive your service for free.

When you get really excited about the possibilities, you can even make a great second or primary income.

 It is estimated over 5,000 discarded backpacks are in this wash.  Countless water
 containers, food wrappers, clothing, feces, including thousands of soiled
 baby diapers. And as you can see in this picture, fresh footprints leading
 right into it.
 
 

 As we kept walking down the wash, we thought for sure it was going to end, but
 around every corner was more and more trash!
 
 

 And of course the trail leading out of the wash in our city, heads directly NORTH
 to Tucson, then leads to your town tomorrow.

 They’ve already come through here. Isn’t Arizona just beautiful, America?
 Why would you boycott us???

 Our desert has basically been turned into a landfill.
 
 

 The trash
 left behind by people illegally crossing our border is another Environmental
 Disaster to hit the USA.

 If these
 actions had been done in one of our Northwest Forests or Seashore National
 Parks areas, there would be an uprising of the American people…..but this
 is the Arizona-Mexican border.

 You won’t
 see these pictures on CNN, ABC, NBC or the Arizona Republic
 Repugnant newspaper.  Nor will they mention the disease that comes from the
 uncovered human waste left in our desert.

  It’s about supporting the US Constitution“  *********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************
