Enjoy the corn. > > Michael Lonetto PHRI NYC This cretin seems to be operating under the false impression that everyone is like he is: if it won't help them personally, they wouldn't be for it. Here we see him, apparently unable to argue effectively that local tax deductions *don't* effectively transfer money from people in low tax areas to people in high tax areas, attempting to imply that I am on my side of the argument because I live in a low tax area. Except for the little detail that I live in a high tax area (New Jersey) which those of you who, unlike Michael Lonetto, are smart enough to figure out the state abbreviation which appears in the header of my articles already knew. What do you think - will intense tutoring help him with his incredible spelling and diction problems, or should he leave NYC and move to Hazzard County where he'd fit right in, and where he wouldn't have to pay all of those high local taxes? -- Jeff Sonntag ihnp4!mhuxt!js2j "Sundown, yellow moon.

Dear JoSH: >Dear Farmer, > >Waaal, I s'poses nonayer Nerbrasky farmers gits low intrsrt lones from >th' Fed'rl Guvmnt, eh? I s'poses thet nonathem Sunbelt States with >... >Michael Lonetto PHRI NYC Bigot. is this supposed to be a rebuttal? I thought it sll you neo-somethingorothers hated us leftists for obscuring political dialectic (Socratic) with ad-hominem attacks? Mr. Lenetto's perhaps offensive use of `dialect' doesn't completely obscure the force of his argument. . . Besides, it seems unfair to complain about bigotry in response to an article which consisted mostly of (thinly) concealed bigotry against us city-dwellers on behalf of the salt-of-the-earth. Robert
