How our attention is drawn away from Citizen's United

Seriously? Clearly you've never been in the military.

SO! Regardless the Koch Bros and all the evil money involved, your statement pretty much sums up the reality of what happens in the current election process.

It totally moots your reason for backing up the abolishment of the CU. They, the Citz Union, in fact were pretty heavily active during both of those elections in which Obama was elected and re-elected. were they not?

So then you currently voluntarily pay 60% of your current wages to the State of CA and the IRS do ya? How admirable of you.

And I hope you don't plan on driving or just plain travelling often cus gas and transportation expenses are 4 to 5 times the cost it is in Tahoe.

In Germany, you are usually going to spend around €1400 for auto insurance on a yearly basis. This part of Europe is also notorious for rather laid back speed limits and traffic laws, which allows for more excitement while drivers are on the road. The expensive cars and high speed limits make this country an insurance company’s nightmare.

All drivers using highways, or "Autobahnen," in Germany will have to pay the fee, including motorists from abroad...

I have to assume your just making shet up to try to prove a point.

On the other hand, perhaps you know I'm not so young since YOU keep SHOUTING as THOUGH I'm HARD of hearing.

The German lower house, or Bundestag, passed the road toll legislation on Friday with a vote of 433-128, with six abstentions.
Although the upper house, the Bundesrat, will review the legislation at the start of May, it has no power to stop its implementation, meaning that the toll, which has provoked heated debate in Germany, will likely be introduced next year.

All drivers using highways, or "Autobahnen," in Germany will have to pay the fee, including motorists from abroad, but the German-registered drivers - who will automatically pay the toll for both highways and major roads - will receive the money back indirectly by paying less motor vehicle tax.

For this reason, the toll will be reviewed by the European Court of Justice - the highest court for European Union law - to determine whether it contravenes EU rules on discrimination.

Drivers from outside Germany will be able to pay toll for a year, ten days or two months, at corresponding prices. In addition, the price of the toll will be determined according to the size of vehicles and the amount of polluting emissions they produce.

I did rear end a guy in traffic.....

HUH... You got some special computer that verbalizes text?

Apparently you can not read too well either cus it states nothing of the sorts.

Ah, thank god you were just playing the Progessive BS game and imitating one. Was getting worried that there was another one in the ST line up.

Yes. It absolutely does. Remember, we're discussing what it's like to live there. Not what it's like for me to visit there. I would be a german-registered driver.

Ok. I will give you that one. BUT you're gonna now have to pay that nice $1500 a year in Auto Insurance and them other nice fatass "individual" taxes upwards of 45% and a Payroll tax of around 41%

Oh yeah. Free college.
