  1. >>She should have had one of her children claim it.<< That would have triggered gift tax (video surveillance at the store, you know). According to this actuarial table http://www.ssa.gov/oact/STATS/table4c6.html she can expect seven more years. That's plenty of time to take advantage of the unlimited spousal exclusion by marrying her high school sweetheart (I mean the one who is high school now....)

  2. In light of what has surfaced lately concerning information requested from targeted groups, this would not surprise me.

  4. Hopefully 7 more years of comfort and enjoyment, during which she can make gifts as she desires, with charitable donations as she desires, etc. And she can now be assured that she will not be one of the 'forgotten' elderly!

  5. WIN7 PRO has encryption capabilities for security that Home does not. You can encrypt the information written on your hard drive such that if a hacker gets to your drive, he will get gibberish instead of data.

  6. The thing that blows my mind is the idea that the IRS [or any gov agency, for that matter] could tell any citizen, "You are not allowed to own a savings account". On what grounds? Why? He "made too many transfers"???? So trying to maximize his interest earned in a time of extreme low interest rates is wrong? Why? Thats taxable income, the IRS should like that, shouldn't they?

  7. Entertainer and PJTV pundit Alfonzo Rachel is crying foul…and possibly racism. Rachel is a black conservative living in California. His popular video rants typically cover topics such as big government and faith. While his latest video is no different, it took a more personal turn when Rachel revealed he had been targeted by the IRS and the California state tax board. Apparently the IRS has forbidden Rachel from owning a savings account after they notified him that he made too many transfers from savings to checking (seriously?). Now the author and musician can ONLY hold checking accounts. That in itself is outrageous (the government can tell you what kind of bank account you can and can’t own?) but the outrage doesn’t end there. Recently Rachel awoke to discover the California state tax board had completely drained his checking account of every dime…without warning, notification or even any charges. In the video Rachel says he’s not sure if the IRS is behind it yet, “but I do know California is big on hating Republicans. And California is big on the state and federal government taking from others.” Could this be yet another ripple in the growing IRS scandal? If it is politically motivated, could there be an element of racism as well? Rachel discusses at length the Democrat’s history of using organized political groups to harm and bully black Americans, and draws a loose comparison here using the left’s own rules of accusations of racism. In an interview Rachel told me, “I don’t know if this is the IRS’ [doing] but they’re still in violation of the supreme law of the land by depriving me of my property without due process. They punished me before charging me.” He went on to say that while he was very angry at first he was humbled as he heard about the children lost in the Moore, Oklahoma tornado.“God was like, what did you lose? So I’m not mad about the money. I’m angry about an audacious government that insists on making us subjects. That’s the sickening part.” The longtime musician maintains he knows of no violations on his part and is completely clueless as to why the state “burglarized” his account. Could the fact that this publicly outspoken black man enthusiastically exposes the racist origins and Marxist values of the Democrat party be in any way responsible for this sudden violation? Is this racially motivated? Politically motivated? A month ago those questions would have been perceived by most people as hilariously paranoid. Kira Davis On June 6, 2013

  10. You are absolutely, positively correct, Joan! I think a couple of years in prison will (might) teach them to not only to open, but read their mail, as well! Seriously though, wouldn't our jobs be soooo much easier with that type of "penalty". Our jobs might not be as profitable, but they will be so much easier! I found out "the rest of the story" today in regard to my original post....now I just need to figure out how I can edit the title! But since "Cathy" is not my real name anyway, maybe IRS will never connect me to my post. My REAL name is Paranoid! ????

  11. I agree with the head of development that the METHOD of workstations accessing the database in a network was the fatal flaw. New for 2013, software will be installed ON the server and then software will be INSTALLED on each workstation separately (not a netsetup like in the past). A TRUE network scenario. My research about Raven DB has shown that, if properly configured for a network, can be successfully used on a network. Film at 11:00.

  12. I have been chosen to be a beta tester for the 2013 program. The head of development called me personally to ask about my lates posts on this board. He and I spent at least an hour discussing what is going to be changed for 2013. (I started the conversation telling him my total skepticism) He indicated that the developers must make "...a complete infrastructure change of the software..." for 2013 and that is what is happening. I will keep everyone apprised of what I discover. I also told him that for me to do a beta test, the program I will test must be FULL and totally operational. Not the half-baked, half the features disabled software that had been given to beta testers for 2012. He assured me that would be the case. All that said, we will still probably pull the trigger and use different software at the firm for 2013. I am hopeful, but cautiously skeptical. More information as I get it. I promise the REAL story about 2013 as I test it.

  13. And you have just PROVEN my point: that a fact-based argument from our Founding Principles gets turned into "You're just a Know-It-All!!!" followed by more name-calling. Frankly, you didn't even deserve this much of a response.
