Death & Taxes (and FloriDUH too)

We trot out the wisdom of Franklin each year as we pay our share of keeping this country going. I believe any patriot would be more than willing to pay their taxes to insure that the infrastructure is kept up, and the citizens protected. Unfortunately, those priorities seem to be low on the totem pole that has military spending taking up a ridiculous percentage of the hard-earned dollars most of us fork over every year. It's sad and maddening that the wealthiest people and corporations in the US get the biggest tax breaks, while those of us struggling to get [...]

Tomorrow

Tomorrow is April 15. It's s double-whammy this year. Not only is it tax filing day, but it's also the first anniversary of the Boston Marathon bombing. It's easy to understand why I just want to crawl back in bed and pull the covers over my head. This year, I got my taxes done early. Unfortunately, I owe the IRS a lot of money. The reason why is might surprise you. Due to financial hardship, I had to take my savings out of my IRA. Obviously, I saved that money fully intending to use it after I retired. Unfortunately, life [...]

Lizz Free or Health Care for All

Listen to this episode: {play}http://traffic.libsyn.com/radioornot/20120711_Nicole_Sandler_Show_-_Lizz_Free_or_Health_Care_for_All.mp3 {/play} Podcast: Play in new window I'm still trying to figure out how making sure that all Americans have access to affordable health care will cost us our freedom. Even though I spend most of yesterday's Randi Rhodes Show asking for an explanation, none was forthcoming from the few courageous right wingers who dared call in to the show. I'll ask again today. You never know! (Randi will return tomorrow) On my show this morning, I spoke with Dr. Margaret Flowers, noted single payer healthcare advocate, spokesperson for Physicians for a National Health Program, who [...]

I Take a Day Off, and All Hell Breaks Loose!

I take one morning off and everything goes insane! Seriously, as I watched a parade of ridiculous events transpire Tuesday afternoon and evening, all I could think was that it figures, I'd be off the air the following day. So, today's show began with a recap of the madness... First, Rick "Frothy" Santorum pulls out - of the presidential race, that is. Aww shucks, sorry to see his campaign come to an end (or not). Then, George W. Bush emerged from the shadows to remind us of his lack of brains. One direct quote: "If you raise taxes [...]

Why Is This Day Different From All Other Days?

No, I'm not talking about the fact that Passover begins tonight... Today is tax day. The extension of the Bush tax cuts for another two years that came as a result of the "negotiations" during the Lame Duck session of the 111th Congress gave us the extra day to file our 2010 returns. But the real difference is that this year, we're not just blindly going along with the broken system that allows some of our biggest corporations to pay nothing at all, while you and I are being bled dry. US Uncut had over 100 actions around the country [...]

The Post-Friday Budgetary Blues

As the new week begins, I'm still reeling from the events that transpired on Friday. As the country was waiting anxiously to see how the budget standoff would end Friday night, I was sitting in an attorney's office, signing away my rights to my house. The house that my father bought after my mother died, where he lived his final dozen or so years in misery as a quadriplegic, is no longer my burdon. I bought my sister out of her share of the house after my father died ... at the height of the market. The house that my [...]
