75% top tax rate! Confused


Ah well Socialist...whadya expect? LOL
Even for Europe that's pretty ridiculous, in those beloved Nordic countries I thought the highest rate was right around 60%
Hell, says the current rate is 41% for the top...so he's suggesting a 30+ percent increase! And people wanna boil Obama alive....

One of my uncles lives in Sweden and taxes are ridiculous! (a 25 percent VAT which is insane) Plus the government sponsored private cartels rip people off with ridiculously high prices, which the same everywhere, but its even more extreme there.

Bob Barr was libertarian on the editorial pages after his last term but as a con gressman he wasn't.  So he's supporting an old bud.  That's all you need to know about that I think.

Sleep sleep....

I followed Babar's editorials in the paper for a while and indeed he did drift libertarian after he wasn't in office, but apparently he's lost his mind again. LOL

I do know he was one of the most Conservative members of Congress, so yeah...going Libertarian seems odd, especially when saying to vote for Newt!
I always assumed he was one of the "rich libertarians" I talk about. Those who want less government for themselves and people like them but really don't give a sh*t, and tend to be authoritarian in thought...

I'm sure I told you about the Ron Paul "supporter" I knew (with his off shore bank account) who also liked Putin? f**kin Vlad Putin....and Ron Paul. Because those seem to be likely companionsLOL

No problem.

Yeah roast pork gets sharp provolone though. The sharp cheddar idea made me furious.

Cheese is a fascist's favorite dish. It's obvious. Steak is more libertarian really. This discussion makes no gastronomical sense. End. The. Fed. Food.

You ever been to "Tony Luke's"? The Man v. Food guy went there. Not sure if it's any good..but I guess you can get a 20" cheesesteak.

And god...I f**kin hate that back to topic smiley so damn much.


Actually you can't get it. It was made for the show as a stunt. It's not something they actually offer. I think they made good steaks, but it's really nothing great. They have an amazing roast pork though.


Oh damn. Because I'm pretty sure I could've eaten that. (I had almost 2 pounds of hamburgerShocked)
You and this roast pork man.
Actually I did see something about that on Food Network. At least in one place, I forget the name but they used sharp cheddar and broccoli rabe and it looked pretty amazing.

I've never had a whizz version so I really don't know what I am missing. 


Provolone is good for a nice change occaisonally. American or wiz to me really represents the true taste. I love the taste of wiz personally, but it offers a distinct advantage in cheese distribution. Uncareful steak makers can force the cheese to existing only in one particular region when you take cross sectional areas of the sandwich. Wiz allows easily for a completely uniform distribution. It's one of the particular advantages of it.

Like most things though, the roll really makes or breaks the sandwich. The cheese is usually the least important part for a cheesesteak.
