| Nat'l Guard to Alabama? |
| 2009-08-05 |
| If I were in the Guard, I'd rather be sent to Iraq or A-stan. Those 'Bamans actually know how to hit what they're aiming at. |

| #3 It's an income tax. Except some who already pay for business licenses are exempt (e.g. lawyers). |

| #2 Barbara, I don't know what an occupational tax is in Alabama. However, the Feds nail you if you are self-employed with an occupational tax. The government taxes your right to work. It can be significant--maxes out at something like about 13%. Ah the joy of being patriotic and paying taxes. A lot of Democrats did not pay taxes. I guess the conclusion is that they are not patriotic by Biden's standards. |

| #1 Can anyone explain exactly what this "occupational tax" is? Is it a tax based on your occupation? Based on your occupation of a store or place of business? What? |
