Breeder's Cup 2009/Sax versus the "new" TV
series "V" .
Before I give you the link to Logical Choice's BC pic's I
must lament our cultural state of affairs by inquiring to
the gods above and letting you look over my shoulder
at the futility of it all.
(I have to do this because even though I knew I was
going to need to save a few extra bucks so that I could
make my BC bets I failed to do so because I had to
finally pay my taxes after pushing them as far as I
could--October 15th for us Extensioners is as far as
we can push them--and since I made a conscious
choice to "go galt" many many years back I am now
finding myself on the short end of the money sitck and
I don't like it. Granted it was of my own doing, but, only
to a point, as it still remains had the government not
taken 2/3rds of the taxes from me that it did take but
didn't need, would I not now at least have enough to
have a little fun betting on my BC picks as I envision
the bets??? (See BC link below for more.)
Which is to say, I just don't understand why people
refuse to see that the Government is taking over three
times more in taxes than it properly needs and
that if it
would just cease and desist in such behavior all our
economic woes would evaporate back into the skies
above.
So to speak.
Is it because not everybody agrees that the
Government's proper role is to only provide for
the
military, the police and the courts or is it this and/or
something else.
That is, how did the Government get us to switch our
concern from "windfall taxes" to winfall profits? (Not to
even mention, getting us to exclude from the
concept "greed" Greedy Politicians--BM's--but to retain
in the concept greedy individuals. How did "they" do
this?)
Especially since there really isn't such a thing as
windfall profits. At least, not in a real free market but
there is such a thing as windfall taxes which are taxes
in excess of the amount a proper government needs.
Taxes, not profits are determined by need.
Unless of course you are a socialist at heart, then "...
from each according to his ability (to produce) to each
according to his need (to consume) ...".
If this isn't predatory group then I don't know what ...
wait ... halt ... stop.
This is the point I was trying to get too: Man--with one
exception--has no natural predator. Antelope in the
jungle are prey to lions and tigers and other animals.
As are all animals in the animal kingdom. That is, all
except Man, man has no real natural predator.
Except for one.
The Group is man's only natural predator.
So tonite when you go to bed if you feel someone or
rather some-thing is stalking you, ready to
devour you
you are (kinda) right. ( I wonder is this what everybody,
or a large enough group within the group are feeling
right now so that the "new" TV Series "V" is staging a
comeback???)
Could be.

PS
I ran out of time so I am going to simplify my
predicitons/bets ... in all Breeder Cup Races take the
top pick over and under all for the $1 exacta. That is I
don't have time to go over comments
from
September's NewsLetter so for MMQ purposes I am
using this simple over/under approach.
See you Monday'ish.
