Chesterfield ballot: meals tax fate may affect real estate tax rate – Richmond Times-Dispatch: Chesterfield

Once again another totally unnecessary tax. The fools don’t realize how much this is going to hurt local business. With the implementation of Obamacare starting people’s disposable income dropping by a large percentage (and it’s “Surprising” to economists that retail sales are tepid or flat out down. I could’ve told them that was going to happen), the amount of money available for ‘eating out’ will dry up. Throw in the ‘meals tax’ and it’ll just kill local business and jobs. But, what the hell, they’re getting their damn money so that’s all that matters.

Letter to the editor: Week of July 17, 2013 – Mechanicsville Local: Letters To The Editor

I agree with the first letter writer. Why do students that have been through twelve grades need to take two years of remedial classes in college? Only one I ever took was in math and that was because I didn’t take a math class from 1991 when I graduated high school to 2000 in college. Nine years is enough to make one want to take a class, but coming right out of school? Ridiculous!

ABC official questioned U.Va. student’s arrest – Richmond Times Dispatch: Virginia News

This was so ridiculous that I can’t even comment on it. I’ve dealt with two ABC agents in my life and both times they went for maximum intimidation. Both times I broke no laws and was in the clear, but their attitudes are only beaten by those of the BATF.
