Tax Breaks for Floridians
Bill Nelson likes me, even though I made a picture of him that isn’t so flattering because he foolishly went to Syria to discuss U.S. foreign policy with Assad.
December 21, 2006
Dear Floridian:
Just before adjourning for the year, Congress renewed some important tax deductions that will save Floridians an estimated $850 million annually. Included in this package is the state sales tax deduction I have been pushing for that allows Florida residents to continue deducting state sales tax expenses through 2007. The bill was signed into law yesterday.
I wanted to make sure you knew about this deduction, because it does not appear on the forms the Internal Revenue Service has already published for filing 2006 returns. Please use this link to the IRS website to access updated forms and get additional information about how you can apply these tax credits and deductions on your 2006 federal tax return. You also can call the IRS help line toll free at 800-829-1040.
If you need additional assistance, you can call my office toll free in Florida at 888-671-4091. Or, if you’re outside Florida, you can call 407-872-7161.
Sincerely,
Bill Nelson
U.S. Senator
Milton Friedman’s “Free To Choose” Series is AWESOME!
You’ve gotta put some time aside to check this out. IdeaChannel.tv is offering the 1980 Series, and the 1990 followup, of “Free To Choose.” Watch the 1980 Series first, then watch the 1990 Series. Simply put, Milton Friedman shows you the way to economic prosperity on a national and global scale.
Fifteen episodes, each is about an hour long, but every minute is well worth the time. The DVD is available, too, but it’s expensive (*cough TORRENT cough*). If you’ve ever wondered why our system is the way it is today, and why it’s so inefficient, then watching Uncle Milty will help you understand.
Go watch “Free To Choose” right now!
Giant Magazine’s 50 Greatest Commercials of the 80s
I… I… uh… look, my brainwashed head demands I post this for others to follow. Countless hours in front of the tube during the 80s preclude any disagreement from my rational side. Just… go… watch commercials… buy… buy… buy….
