The hidden 1099 provision

Requiring businesses to issue 1099s when they pay $600 or more in a year to a corporation for either property or services
This Extract is from Guy Benson Show RSS http://www.guybensonshow.com/podcast-rss.php?castrefid=1


When I heard this, I first thought of my neighbor  (Tom) who has a small business and how its going to affect him. I emailed him the following. If I could, I would email every small business owner in the country this same message:

Tom,
You'll need to start gathering the company tax ids for every vendor you do business with.

This is the first time I've heard about this "The hidden 1099 provision" with-in the Heath Care Bill.

Listen to the 5 mintue sipnet between the 57:00 minute to the 1:02:00 minute on the 5/9/2010 version of the The Guy Benson Show. use the link below to listen to the podcast with iTunes as I do.

The following is from Forbes.com which the podcast info is based on.

Expanded 1099 reporting. Forbes .com via http://www.forbes.com/2010/02/03/obama-tax-increases-budget-congress-personal-finance-dean-zerbe.html

As a way to improve compliance (and raise $9 billion over 10 years) the Obama administration has proposed requiring businesses to issue 1099s when they pay $600 or more in a year to a corporation for either property or services. Currently, such forms only have to be issued (and sent to the Internal Revenue Service) when more than $600 is paid to an individual. Both the House and the Senate included this tax gap proposal in the health overhaul bill. Look for it to be passed some time this year to "pay for" some or another priority.

Virgins Wanted ... No Experienced Necessary

Ricochet Extract

This Extract is from #20 The Year of the Spanking with Rob Long on Ricochet RSS http://feeds.feedburner.com/RicochetPodcast

• Girl Talk with Claire Berinski as she joins in from Turkey.
• The newest uproar is not so much anti American as anti Israel.
• The Turkish people are very polite people even to your face when they don't support your views .
• Spotted on a Turkish teenager the other day. "virgins wanted ... no experienced necessary".
• Claire's contact with 3 Rabi from an organization called Jews United Against Zionism boils down to the following. "if you only see the blockage of Gaza as the only political issue, then you can follow their logic"
• The problem is, they choose to only think in a single issue at a time.
• Egypt is supporting the Gaza flotilla, because the Gazians will only move weapons through tunnels via Egypt. They don't want the Gaza problems as much as Israel.
• Turkey has a new regional goal, be more important.

This Extract is from Charlie Sykes' 6/2/2010 show tagged "Two Flagrant Acts of Democracy" RSS http://www.620wtmj.com/podcasts/charlie_sykes_podcast?xml=y

• Taking the property via Eminent Domain of a 94 year man's farm for a business park.
• This was stopped when the public got involved.
• The local town council stopped the process when opposition to the take over was brought to light
• Politicians hate this .. when the public gets involved.
• Is the Tea Party part of this?
• This only proves that "you can make a difference ... you can change things". Your vote counts.
• The town council credits the information being brought to their attention via blogs and talk radio.
• This goes back to the civil rights case in which Supreme Court ruled in favor of the city in taking take private property for a business development to raise local revenue.
• Overall the mood has changed
• Politics is changing when the public demonstrates Flagrant Acts of Democracy.

Muslims are the New Jews?

Extension 720 ExtractRSS http://feeds.feedburner.com/wgnradio/x720unabridged

A continuing series of learnings from a variety of interesting & informative podcasts
This Extract is from Dr. Milt Rosenberg's Extension 720 in an interview Bruce Bawer on his book Surrender:Appeasing Islam, Sacrificing Freedom

• Muslims are coming to the West not to flee religion but to bring their religion with them.
• Its a misnomer that Islam means World of Peace. A better and real meaning of Islam is Submission of the World
• They understand what their religion tells them to do. Jihad
• Jihad is just one way in which they are told. Jihad comes in many forms.
• Their religion tells them to bring the world under Islam.
• The real danger is the silent jihad
• In Europe teachers are being challenged in the classroom from children like on the subject of the Holocaust. The kids state in class that the teacher doesn't know the truth or claim its a lie or worst that the Jews deserved it.
• Instead on correcting the child, the teachers are choosing just not teach about subjects like the Holocaust. Its easier and less confronting.
• England is playing a very sad role currently. They are knighting people who are enemies of the systems of freedom like the Magna Carta
• This only promotes the belief of anti western systems, which ties into an Islamic belief of the decay of the world..
• Euro-Islam is being sold as a moderate form. But its really a make believe moderate.
• This, in reality is far more dangerous then someone with a bomb
• Europe expected the influx of the Muslims to have become more Europeanized and less Islamic by now, but the opposite has happened.
• There doesn't seem to be any reason to think that this would be any different in America as well.
• Are you hearing that the Muslims are the New Jews?

Julius Caesar vs. Alexander the Great?

Don't forget the vic!

A continuing series of learnings from a variety of interesting & informative podcasts.

This Extract is from an Dan Carlin's Hardcore History Show 24(Classical Hanson) RSS http://feeds.feedburner.com/dancarlin/history?format=xml

• Who would Victor David Hansen pick in a Las Vegas style bet and what would be the spread between Julius Caesar vs. Alexander the Great?
• Alexander's landscape was far greater, much more vast in conquest. But he didn't create anything afterwards. It was divided up into Greek monarchies which later turn over to the Romans.
• Julius Caesar was very different. He had far fewer resources and large amount of civil unrest back in Rome. He was trying to create stable provinces and institutions that would integrate via a marriage with Rome. These provinces would later become places like Belgium, France & parts of Spain.
• The achievements as a general, Julius Caesar wasn't as spectacular as Alexander. But Caesar's achievements were more realistic, rational and they latest longer. Caesar had a better mind then Alexander. Alexander was more of a romantic, a person of the day, where as Caesar had a mind of a century.

Calling out all .. for modern Roman Tribunes

Your augment, is that you don’t want to get screwed by the other side!
A continuing series of learnings from a variety of interesting & informative podcasts.

This Extract is from Dan Carlin's Common Sense "The Reform Mirage" RSS http://feeds.feedburner.com/dancarlin/commonsense?format=xml

• 
  
  Wishing for reform - can only a dreamer really think we'll reform.
• 
  
  1st step is to admit that we have a problem.
• 
  
  Pie in the sky - state of our times, that reform is closer to a fantasy then reaility.
• 
  
  We only need 23% of the public to vote in the same direction to reform
• 
  
  We need a whistle blower and chief
• 
  
  How much of a dreamer do you need to be. The simplest solution is almost impossible to imagine
• 
  
  The last and only time (our lifetime) that a person gave the Democrats & Republicans a real sweat was Perot.
• 
  
  Bipartisan problems are the real problems
• 
  
  You’ll never see a 3rd. party in the debates again unless the supreme court gets involved.
• 
  
  What makes Democrat Presidents even more dangerous then the Republican Presidents, is what the Republican run into: ie. Liberal protest. For the Dems the prottest is muted . If the Republicans did what the Democrats Presidents are and have done, there would be rioting in the streets.
• 
  
  That’s why the problem can’t be solved.
• 
  
  When your augment is that you don’t want to get screwed by the other side, so you’ll vote for your side again, even through you are unhappy with your side’s actions.
• 
  
  Do we need Roman Tribunes again to look after the avg Joe?
• 
  
  WSJ reports members of congress are currently allowed to profit on insider trading. A bill to ban this has been blocked in the house for 6 years.
• 
  
  We need more avg Joes and avg Janes in congress. But once they are there, how do we keep them as avg Joes . Because they will become "one of them".
• 
  
  The following will be on the ballot in 2012. Obama, Palin, Gingrich & Romney. If you vote for anyone of them "nothing will change".
• 
  
  Challenge the power structure from the outside. It the only way to reform.
• 
  
  We're going to need to cut the outsider some slack

Can Swarming Work in a Big War?

Uncommon Knowledge Extract
A continuing series of learnings from a variety of interesting & informative podcasts.

This Extract is from Uncommon Knowledge's "New Rules of War" RSS http://tv.nationalreview.com/uncommonknowledge/audio.xml

• Aircraft carriers will become ineffective and cost too much.
• 
  
  Technology has made a new form of war "Network Warfare".
• 
  
  We'll want to distribute our resources across the entire system.
• 
  
  What do you need to fight the really big war vs. the more common small wars we are fighting?
• 
  
  Is the Pentagon is open to this new ways of thinking?
• 
  
  Can big wars come again / they will most certainly they will.
• 
  
  Our current military does scale down easy.
• 
  
  After the military victory in Iraq, we didn't scale down. we did the opposite and increased even to a point of building a burger king on the huge base
• 
  
  The cloud computer metaphor a good way of looking at this Network Warfare
• 
  
  After the thunder run in Iraq. we should have broken the army into thousands of groups of 50 vs. building huge bases.
• 
  
  One year later our approval was down to single digits, when just a year earlier it was over 75 percent.
• 
  
  China is great at push and retreat.
• 
  
  China is building a "small and many" navy.
• 
  
  Our navy is also looking at a small and many version.
• 
  
  Swarming is the new Surged
• 
  
  In Afghanistan our troops were on horseback for the sole purpose of making sure the aircraft could bomb any vehicle because are troops were on horseback.
• 
  
  People turned on Rumsfeld, he was a rock star at one time.
• 
  
  When you can't have a Roman peace, what do we do it now?
• 
  
  We really needed to have troops walking around in a swarming feel.
• 
  
  Only 10% out of the 30,000 increase really went outside of the wire
• 
  
  We need to move away from the super-carrier. Use troop transport.
• 
  
  In WWII we had 100 carriers, but most were the small carriers. These were extremely effective.
• 
  
  We should use 10 small raids,not to destroy, but to show the world the weapons are in Iran
• 
  
  We don't want to fight the old / last war
• 
  
  The question is. "Can the swarming work in a big war?"

Soft Treatment of Collective Behaviors

Extension 720 Extract

A continuing series of learnings from a variety of interesting & informative podcasts.

This Extract is from Dr. Milt Rosenberg & Extension 720 Episode dated Feb 18, 2010 RSS 
http://feeds.feedburner.com/wgnradio/x720unabridged

• 
  
  Milt speaks with Bernard Wasserstein, Professor of history at University of Chicago about his new book, Barbarism and Civilization.
• 
  
  History of Europe in the 20th. Century. starts in 1914 and goes up to the present.
• 
  
  It was the worst of centuries in the case of Europe, but not for North America.
• 
  
  It was the best of centuries in case of life expectation, education, food supply, ... ect.
• 
  
  Wasserstein doesn't present the book as a forecast, but as analysis or chronicle.
• 
  
  There was a feeling of an age of progress and low crime before the Balkans broken out in fighting before WWI.
• 
  
  If Hitler was killed in WWI. would WWII have happened?
• 
  
  Was Hitler turned wicked by the gassing he received during WWI or was he a warped personality due in part of abnormal sexually parts?
• 
  
  Hitler was still blaming the Jews to the very end in the Berlin bunker.
• 
  
  The Nazi were out for broke in what they considered a noble process to remove not only the Jews, but the Poles, Russians POWs, Gypsy and Gays any one they considered unmoral or worthly.
• 
  
  The birth rate is currently too low in Europe even with the huge influx of Muslims. The Europeans are still having trouble with replacing themselves to keep a healthy economy.
• 
  
  Italy by 2050 will switch to mostly Muslims.
• 
  
  European countries are not Christian countries currently. They will be rainbow countries in the near future. In the Netherlands, there's a movement in which English may be the official language, because its the most used. Not because there's a large influx of English nationals.
• 
  
  There's still a East West divide in the Eastern part of Europe.
• 
  
  Russia is still not a modern economy.
• 
  
  The Russian economy just after the fall of the USSR, was only the same size of the Netherlands.
• 
  
  Jewish community is dying out in Europe, due to a low birth rate as well as immigration out of Europe.
• 
  
  Jews will be a minority between the area of Jordan river and the Mediterranean sea.
• 
  
  There will need to be some Jewish state territory retraction of some sort. in the very near future.
• 
  
  New Europe has been a soft treatment of collective behaviors, i.e. the death penalty, accepting  of gay life style, women's equal rights, with a soft treatment on criminals, the mad, and its illegal to beat/ punish one's own children as a form of family discipline.
• 
  
  History is fun. A human need to know where you came from.
• 
  
  History isn't a guide to the future but history remains a mystery.

 Joining Ricochet is Powerline Blog's John Hinderaker.

• Mark Steyn believes the Dems are going for broke, hell or high water.
• John disagrees Dems are not doing a death pack, because they are not pushing all of their pet ideas like id cards, card check & cap and trade. Its just political calculus.
• Are they doing this to energize their base. They need to have something to show their base in Nov. They should go for it all.
• The dems believe the only good way to increase jobs is to spend government money.
• The dems have forgotten that we agreed to in the 70's and 80's that trying tax cuts was a way to get economic growth.
• Haley Barbour would make a great President but knows he is unelectable ... too southern
• Could the Republican still screw up the Nov elections?
• Per Barbour since 1993 we've elected 26 new Republican Senators to replace a Dem. 18 times it has came along with the election of a Republician as a Governor in the same election.

• Here's just a few
  Providing a soap box to the world.
• Their main goal of putting the Bush Administration on trail.
• Tons of discovery which include personal information and a mountain of government files.
• In a national security case like this,they'lll get access to the entire national security process in an attempt to make sure that the government isn't withholding something back.
• The government will turn over, way too much information, then needs to be turned over. Because no one wants to take the chance of a mistake and retrial.
• A major push for classified documents with the hope that someone will bring Bush in front of the World Court.
• The jury may need long term protection.

This Extract is from the first half of Dan Carlin's Common Sense Show 175 Blue Pills & Green Bills RSS  http://feeds.feedburner.com/dancarlin/commonsense?format=xml 

• Wall street reform & illegal immigration are just a smoke screen & side show
• We need to watch for the person who is picking our pockets while we watch the fight.
• Wall street and Illegal Immigration falls into the same categories as Abortion because nothing is ever going to be done with these subjects. Because the powers that be (the Oligarchy), likes the system in its current form
• Vegas style logic
• Determine which side is the oligarchy is on
• Its possible the Oligarchy may not be on either side of the issue.
• Need to ask where is the money being made?
• Bet on the side of the Oligarchy
• Reagan's immigration law didn't do any thing, because that is what it was designed to do.
• Reagan's law was basically set up to have the paperwork done for the people who wanted to hire illegals
• Wall Street can't be reformed via a law which provides cover for both sides.
• The goal of the law is really to have money pour into both sides.
• Next time your listening to a debate
• Take 3 steps back and ask yourself, who is making money off of this.
• You just took the Blue Pill. Welcome to the real world.
• Its not that nice. But its reality
• The truth will set you free but you may not like it.

• 
  
  Could we beat our grandparents in a major war?
• Down side of a civilization.
• 
  
  Do we need the toughness to survive?
• 
  
  Life cycle of history doesn't really work.
• 
  
  Good historians look at human trends from deep history over thousands of years, not hundreds.
• 
  
  Sparta was as great as it was, only because it had a culture's goal to grow the ultimate fighting man in Greece. Men were raw material to one goal.
• 
  
  They became corruptible & luxury loving which caused the fall of their city-state.
• 
  
  Like in Young Frankenstein, the Doctor wanted the Hans Delbrück's brain, but gets switched with a brain as Igor states, is from "Abby Normal" (a.k.a."Do Not Use This Brain! Abnormal").
• 
  
  You can give them (your fighting force) the best spears or guns, but if the men won't stand there to throw the spear or shoot the guns. It doesn't matter how good the weapons are.
• 
  
  In Afghanistan if we had to use the same weapons as the Afghans It would be a very interesting war.
• 
  
  Can you make society tougher.That's what the Nazis were trying.
• 
  
  In the end, we're currently most likely on the good side of the down-side. It the bad side of a downward society that sucks to be there.

Iran (the Petroleum Theocracy) Petrocracy

• Harmid Karzai is just a bandit. Afghanistan can't be won.
• President Obama gave up on the wrong war. Yemen is more important then Afghanistan
• Iraq was a nation to rebuild, Afghanistan isn't even a nation. we're not rebuilding ...we're building. we would be better off to have started a new nation in the middle of no where.
• Iran never wanted to reach a common ground with the US.
• We should start to think about Iran after the bomb.
• The radicals are trying to weaponize Islam
• The free world can't modernize Islam. Islam must be modernized by Muslims. The battle is a Muslim battle.
• Obama doesn't understand the Arabic saying "my brother and I against my cousin"... "my cousin and I against a stranger" . He was ill-informed. He isn't respected in the Arab world for what he said on his Middle East tour.
