I gotta say, I'm pretty pissed about my taxes going to the grammy's, in any way shape of form. I can't wait to hear the justification for this one. I'm telling you people that the constitution just doesn't mean anything these day.

$800,000 would be better spent assembling a strike force to attack the grammies. If they could somehow host it in the middle of the desert, strategic weapons would be the way to go.

"$800,000 would be better spent assembling a strike force to attack the grammies."

I'm pretty sure I can get enough volunteers to pull it off with about 300,000.

Or we could donate it to the "Make Flameseeker a Millionaire Fund." We want to....uhhh... save the whales?

Woah. Thank God I don't pay taxes...not having a job r0x0rz. That's such a gross misappropriation of government resources it's not funny.

I agree this is BS. However, look at the numbers. 800K? Come on. Bill gates pays quadruple (more, most likely) that in taxes. How do you know YOUR money is really being used.

I do agree it's a bad way to spend money; however I wrote what I wrote above to make some of you feel better.

:rolleyes:

I guarentee Mr. Gates pays at least 10 times that. But the point is that Mr Gates money can go elsewhere. How many school books would 4/5 of a million dollars buy?

I agree. I said what I said for some comic relief.

I wonder if me and dio, and the rest of the canucks here, I wonder if our taxes support the Junos, :rofl:.

I'm volunteering for Nav's army of anti-grammies. Who's with me?
