Comments on: John Boehner: We’re Broke! http://lonelyconservative.com/2009/12/john-boehner-were-broke/ Observations from a conservative in a blue state. With a little help from my friends! Sat, 26 May 2012 18:13:21 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.2 By: William Laskohttp://lonelyconservative.com/2009/12/john-boehner-were-broke/comment-page-1/#comment-13541 William Lasko Fri, 11 Dec 2009 13:56:08 +0000 http://www.lonelyconservative.com/?p=13683#comment-13541 On Monday this week, we saw Mitch Daniels speak to the press about how they had not projected revenue to be this low and that they will have to cut spending further. On Wednesday, I recieved 12 individual letters from the Indiana Dept of Revenue. Going back to Spring 2004, the letters say "According to our records, You may owe a sales tax of [thousands of dollars]." Three of the letters indicate a total over $18,000.00 for sales taxes for my oldest business that's never had a sales tax number!(We don't do a retail business) The rest are sprinkled throught 2004 - 2009 saying I "may owe a tax for witholding taxes". I have to pay my CPA to answer for me - an expense Indiana small businesses do not need to have to pay right now. The letters demand payment or a written arguement refuting their letters within 45 days. They've over spent and are desperate. They do not keep records well or seem to hire enough people that actually know what they are doing. But the worst thing is that their manner is heavy handed, implies threats of seizures if not paid. 99% of the time, it comes down to a form is not in THEIR records. I resent this practice of throwing, what is nothing more than made-up questions, at the wall to see what sticks. If I don't have good enough records that far back, it is inferred and assumed they expect we will have to pay it again. Simply put - Indiana is not small business-friendly at all. I wish I could say otherwise - but they run you over in a heart beat in this state. Small business is their best friend when they're running for office and want our vote but afterwards, if you don't have 500 employees and a net worth in the millions - you can't get anywhere with them. They absolutely are not trying to nurture small business, - at least I don't see it happening. We all get to pay into the Workforce Developement but many of us are written right out of the training grants program - a program that literally names IVY Tech as their preferred training provider. THAT should be illegal and unconstitutional! John Boehner is but a parakete in a mine - There should be a daily web posting of who votes and what they voted on among our elected people in Washington AND each of our states. This web site should track how well these elected representatives adhere to the US Constitution and their oath. The real conservatives we have in DC should be pounding the hell out of every incidense where that is not the case - EVERY DAY! Obama is a hopeless idiot and the rats on his ship have broken out the liqor. It's a free for all party in Washington with no one in charge. PEOPLE!!! LISTEN!! - In a knee jerk reaction to Communism, we're doomed to replace a lot of people in Washingtom with Republicans - Republicans that are silent right now "knowing" they're apt to be re-elected just because they're not a liberal democrat. This process of weeding out the bad apples must never stop. The other day they were praising Evan Bye on mainstream TV news, for "standing his ground" position on all the crap going on in Washington - well, his "ground" is doing nothing but sitting on the fence! We want both parties to know - sitting on the fence is as bad as being on the far left!!! Evan Bue ought to be dropped in the next election!.
