Greg, it makes no difference how you get your signal into the home. Remember that every TV is also a transmitter. You can, and the British Post Office does (the post office handles the tv, telephone etc) have cute little vans that drive up and down the streets monitoring the houses. If they...

You are right, but, it will become more and more the norm. Our health care will be working hard to lower it's standards to the level of England. It won't even take that long either. No more than 10-20 years, if that. Layoutshooter

"Well, if they are going to start taxing everything, why would I want to pay income tax? Hell, I'm going to need the money I pay in income tax just to pay for the sales tax. If we have to pay for both, I can not save any money for retirement." Interesting you should say that MentalGiant. You...

Shades of the National Un-Healthy system to come. The more the STATE is involved the worse it will get. Layoutshooter

Not I sir!! I really have no need for one. I would have them if I had a ton of money and had bought every other gun I want, and everything else as well. I am far from that. What I really want now is an over and under 20ga. Maybe something in a .223. Layoutshooter

The BBC is comercial free, it is STATE run televison in every respect. The STATE controls all programing and NEWS AND EDITORIAL content. The is NO decenting voice. Even speeches by the "Opposistion" party, that would be the Re-Bum-Li-Cans here, are subject to government "editing" much like in...

I did not forget, I just thought no one would believe me. The TV tax is to pay for STATE run television, the BBC. You pay a tax PER TV with a higher tax for a color set vs. black and white. At least that is how it was when I lived there. You had to pay the tax even if you only watched the FEW...

Government take over of the economy was and is the plan. The goal was an economy run by the government and for the government. Many say I am scary and ranting but it is 100% about control, rule and oppression. Barry and his ilk want to and will take every step needed to do away with the...

Very funny Rocket, you go to "Coal r Us" Where else? Remember, I only used the coal as an example. That tax applies to EVERY service and EVERY thing that you use or buy in England, Scotland and Wales. EVERY thing!! To see how it would affect you, and it will if adopted, go look up the production...

We were told that right up front when we got our service. It was in our contract. I have no idea when they started doing it but we had it from day one. We started with the service last summer. We have never gone over that, not even close. Layoutshooter

You guys ain't seen nothin yet when it comes to taxes. This is ONLY the beginning. Now tobacco, no problem, I don't smoke and it is bad for you anyway. Next, booze, no problem, I seldom drink and it is bad for you anyway. Next guns or ammunition, no problem I don't use them and they have no real...

McCain lost because he made no real effort to win. McCain/Palin were facing Obama/Biden. Both McCain and Palin had executive experience at high levels, neither Obama or Biden had any. McCain had extensive military/intelligence back round. Palin had some being in control of the Alaska National...

Never heard that one, wish I was home to check it out. Layoutshooter
