When Everyone Is A Contrarian, Nobody Is

I Am Tired Of The Constant Demonizing Of People Via Political Labels.

I Only Have Disdain For New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg. He Raised Taxes And Has Increased Regulations. What Else Is New? He's A Bully Who Wants To Micro-manage People's Lives By Mandate, Not Persuasion.

The Income Tax Is Flawed For A Number Of Reasons - It Discourages Economic Growth And Encourages A Bloated Government.

One Suggestion My Wife And I Have Used In Our Personal Finance Courses We Teach At College Is Simply Writing Down All Expenditures And Seeing Where The Money Goes. That Alone Will Cause Heads Of Households To Think Twice About X, Y Or Z Expenditure, And To Consider Carefully Whether They Really Need Something Or Not.

I Find It Ironic How New York City Mayor Mike Bloomberg Is So Focused On Such Small Issues As Drink Sizes, While Ignoring The Massive Infrastructure Challenges In New York - Lousy Roads, Third-world Airports, Traffic Jams, Etc.
