Okay so i’m writing a Youth In Government bill about putting a toll road on I-94 between Michigan and Indiana. I live in Michigan so it would be to primarily raise revenue within the state. Do you think this is a good idea or bad? Do you have any input? Thanks!

Bad move – It will make people LESS likely to travel here from Indiana (I am in Michigan too) and we need all the tourism we can get.

I have a sole proprietorship. I just started it. Indiana (IN) requires I report monthly. When I charge the regular/typical 7% for sales or service (home computer repair,) is that how much I pay? For example, I charge $40.00. The tax is $2.80. Do I remit that exact $2.80 over to the Indiana Department of Revenue? If not, how do I figure out how mcuh to report? THANKS

The state dept of revenue should have told you when and how to remit the money from the sales tax when you got your sales tax id from them. If you didn’t get one, get it NOW. If you have the id but not the info on how to report and remit the tax, call them and ask. But first go through anything they sent you with the tax id form. You’ll send in the tax you collected, maybe minus a small handling fee, I don’t know if IN allows that. Your paperwork should say. Whether you report on paper, by phone, or internet, there should be a sequence of questions.

You know that you also need to report the income and expenses on your federal and state tax returns?

NC and Indiana have the right to hold debates and allow each candidate to state their platform to the people. Not only does this give the states needed revenue and pride. I know PA is smiling all the way to Indiana. All state desire this I am sure..Mc CAin needs to be included to give a fair assessment of both parties. Go Hillary you are the doomsslayer.

States must sponsor debates that will tackle issues from its constituents.

In the September 3, 2009 meeting many points were made to demonstrate and to make sure that residents of “merged” areas new that their tax dollars were now going to be used to support another portion of the new community. In this click Pat Sherman, in response to a question about park spending, states that all residents, Center Grove, Smith Valley and Greenwood must be comfortable with the plans not only for parks for all tax revenue distribution.

Barack Obama’s Cap and Trade is a Tax on the working class

Who Pays for Cap and Trade? Hint: They were promised a tax cut during the Obama campaign.

http://online.wsj.com/article/SB123655590609066021.html

-snip

Politicians love cap and trade because they can claim to be taxing "polluters," not workers. Hardly. Once the government creates a scarce new commodity — in this case the right to emit carbon — and then mandates that businesses buy it, the costs would inevitably be passed on to all consumers in the form of higher prices. Stating the obvious, Peter Orszag — now Mr. Obama’s budget director — told Congress last year that "Those price increases are essential to the success of a cap-and-trade program."

Hit hardest would be the "95% of working families" Mr. Obama keeps mentioning, usually omitting that his no-new-taxes pledge comes with the caveat "unless you use energy." Putting a price on carbon is regressive by definition because poor and middle-income households spend more of their paychecks on things like gas to drive to work, groceries or home heating.

The Congressional Budget Office — Mr. Orszag’s former roost — estimates that the price hikes from a 15% cut in emissions would cost the average household in the bottom-income quintile about 3.3% of its after-tax income every year. That’s about $680, not including the costs of reduced employment and output. The three middle quintiles would see their paychecks cut between $880 and $1,500, or 2.9% to 2.7% of income. The rich would pay 1.7%. Cap and trade is the ideal policy for every Beltway analyst who thinks the tax code is too progressive (all five of them).

But the greatest inequities are geographic and would be imposed on the parts of the U.S. that rely most on manufacturing or fossil fuels — particularly coal, which generates most power in the Midwest, Southern and Plains states. It’s no coincidence that the liberals most invested in cap and trade — Barbara Boxer, Henry Waxman, Ed Markey — come from California or the Northeast.

Coal provides more than half of U.S. electricity, and 25 states get more than 50% of their electricity from conventional coal-fired generation. In Ohio, it totals 86%, according to the Energy Information Administration. Ratepayers in Indiana (94%), Missouri (85%), New Mexico (80%), Pennsylvania (56%), West Virginia (98%) and Wyoming (95%) are going to get soaked.

-snip

Led by Michigan’s Debbie Stabenow, 15 Senate Democrats have already formed a "gang" demanding that "consumers and workers in all regions of the U.S. are protected from undue hardship." In practice, this would mean corporate welfare for carbon-heavy businesses.

And of course Congress is its own "stakeholder." An economy-wide tax under the cover of saving the environment is the best political moneymaker since the income tax. Obama officials are already telling the press, sotto voce, that climate revenues might fund universal health care and other new social spending. No doubt they would, and when they did Mr. Obama’s cap-and-trade rebates would become even smaller.

Cap and trade, in other words, is a scheme to redistribute income and wealth — but in a very curious way. It takes from the working class and gives to the affluent; takes from Miami, Ohio, and gives to Miami, Florida; and takes from an industrial America that is already struggling and gives to rich Silicon Valley and Wall Street "green tech" investors who know how to leverage the political class.
"Did you know that Sen. McCain proposed the same plan?"

Yes, I am and was fully aware of that

"I wonder if the Right would be ranting and raving over it."

We would and did.

"Rather than overwrought and unsupported claims why don’t the Right propose ALTERNATIVE SOLUTIONS?"

We are. You should be dealing with what the article tells you instead of pointing fingers at McCain and Republicans. What McCain once proposed and the Republicans actions are irrelevant. What Obama is doing or planning to do, since he is in the White house right now, is relevant. Try to deal with something thats relevant.
"You people wanted a free market solution that made the businesses in control. They are."

Thats news. Seems that government has its hand in everything now.
"However, we can avoid this tax by making our carbon footprint smaller – which somehow the questioner didn’t take in to account."

I didnt take it into account because I dont want to make it smaller. Making it smaller entails changing my behavior and/or the products I buy. I like the freedom of doing as I please without being forced to change via cap and trade taxes.

"And, the same people who either pay the "tax" or cut their carbon use, also benefit: cleaner air,"

Cleaner air isnt going to happen.

"slowing of global warming"

Global warming is a fraud. We humans do not have any control over it.

"lower prices on low-carbon energy"

No, HIGHER prices on low carbon energy.
"And, with a federal mandate existing, capitalists will have the political and economic groundwork to invest in carbon neutral (or better) manufacturing and power generation."

They already have the "political and economic groundwork to invest in carbon neutral (or better) manufacturing and power generation". Its called freedom. A government mandate forcing them to do so is costly and disasterous.
Still waiting for any Obama liberals to deal with the information contained within the article.

***crickets***

Oh come on, liberals. You all hold yourselves up as the big protecters of the little guy, the poor, the working class. Yet here is a piece of legislation that will cost them big time, Obama will hurt them big time, and you’re absolutely silent.

***crickets***

Bueller? Bueller? Bueller?

Government warns of "catastrophic" U.S. quake (FEMA & the New Madrid Seismic Zone)
The Federal Emergency Management Agency said if earthquakes strike in what geologists define as the New Madrid Seismic Zone, they would cause "the highest economic losses due to a natural disaster in the United States."

FEMA predicted a large earthquake would cause "widespread and catastrophic physical damage" across Alabama, Arkansas, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Mississippi, Missouri and Tennessee — home to some 44 million people.

Tennessee is likely to be hardest hit, according to the study that sought to gauge the impact of a 7.7 magnitude earthquake in order to guide the government’s response.

Interview with Rep. Scott Reske, 26 January 2009

Note: Dept of Homeland Security hold regional meetings in a room at the health center of the ISSCH children’s home. FEMA has been out last fall to tour the Home because the home is self-contained with power station, radio station and health center. State Police train on the grounds.

18 months ago ISSCH ALLOWED the State Police and Homeland Security to utilize the older boys divisions. The Home and both agencies were working out a utilization contract which would have allowed the two agencies to RENT some of the facilities. This would have generated a revenue base. What would have needed to happen was Indiana State Dept of Health (ISDH) & Homeland needed to sit down and sign an agreement. Apparently this was forwarded to Indiana State Dept of Health who never actioned it. Go figure, I would ume that either prior to or immediately after the ISDH announced closure they offered up the facility as a whole to Dept of Homeland Security.

So then, if the ISDH (Indiana State Dept of Health) had actioned this 18 months ago, the Home would have had an income stream that would have undermined their argument for closing it on the basis of cost-effectiveness. It seems that they preferred to ensure an insufficient income so that they could offload the entire facility.

This is like shooting the Indiana taxpayer in the foot. It means that taxpayers have been supporting the facility at a higher level than was necessary, since the Home could have been receiving Federal funding through these agencies. How are they going to justify that action to taxpayers on the basis of fiscal responsibility and good stewardship of taxpayer money?

Indiana is #30 in homeless children. So is the ISDH doing a good job monitoring these kids?

Todays paper lists casino revenues up for January.Horseshoe casino in Hammond Indiana had 421,704 customers and made $44,042,826. This is for January only. There are "5" casino boats totalling more than $100,000,000 in profit.AFTER XMAS!Why is everyone so down and out about the economy, explain how do people have the money to spend for gambling?
I am reading TODAY’S paper folks! TODAY!These figures are NOT my imagination.

Not everyone is down and out. The liberal media wants you to think that. I actually made the most I ever have last year and this looks the same. And casinos are in the market to take money not give it.

Check out some of my ‘best answers’, my worst ones too. I am a human capitol consultant. I have been in the field for 5 years. I’ve worked allied health niches, “C” level, General Employment & HR Roles. I have written brief articles on ERE.net to help others in the field. I’ve worked with people in high school, college & those interested in retiring. I am a decent recruiter & a people motivated person. According to statistics from MRI (one of the largest firms in USA) my placement revenue puts me in the top 20% in USA. I am in process of becoming a certified ICF career coach with an interest in life coaching; I believe the two are closely related. I would like to specialize in assisting people interview to get the opportunity they want. It is not a field of study per say, it will be my focus. In order to become a career coach I must complete “X” amount of hours of coaching. I can do this over the phone or in person – I am in Indianapolis, Indiana. Would anyone have an interest in helping me? This would cost you nothing.
