Feel free to add your boycott as a discussion and elaborate as to why. Have the facts in hand please. An example would be GAP inc, and its subsidiaries, GAP, Old Navy, And Banana Republic. Gap has taken a anti-christian stand and will not say Merry Christmas in their stores. This is for the second year in a row. They are off my Christmas shopping list.

I don't remember all of the reasons why - I've just been making the list as I hear about one of the companies. Heinz is a company owned by John Kerry's wife, Nancy Pelosi's husband has a lot of stock in Starkist, the Blackstone Group, a large Obama supporter, owns Busch Gardens and Seaworld, but those are the only ones I can remember off the top of my head. I guess I should have been more diligent when making the list.

It has been pointed out by Rob Sartori that if you take the silver eagle to the bank you will get the value of the coin, not the value of the silver. That is true, I had been given bad info. You must take it to a bullion broker, that are all over the US to exchange it for greenbacks. However between knowledgeable folks you may be able to use it straight as money. When the dollar falls your value of the silver and gold will increase, protecting your wealth.

I don't recommend this method. If you underpay by more than a certain amount (don't remember if it's percentage or $$) then you have to pay an extra penalty. So, in the end, the beast gets more money.

I would appeal on the basis that the government knows how much money I make. They know how many dependents I have. They should know how to make the withholding tables correct. Of course I have to feel like paying taxes in 2010 as well. After all if the democrats get away without paying all their taxes so should I. And it's a percentage. That is why I've been giving them a free loan for all these years. NO MORE!
