With inflation bound to go up because of insane governmental spending, I hope that I can stay shocked over the $1000 pizza price tag for along time.. But someday a $1000 pizza may not shock any of us.

$1000 Pizza
Two nights ago I had a dream that I can't remember but I do remember one fact from that dream. I remember ordering a pizza and getting the bill for $1000. I kept thinking about how much that was, but in my dream I wasn't shocked.

POW (Prison Outreach Worldwide)
Prison Outreach Worldwide is a ministry that I was just recently introduced to. They are ministrying to people in prison. I believe this ministry is working to be a positive influence for those willing to listen in prison. They probably face intense spirtual warfare with people that they work around.
After reading this blog, perhaps you could visit their website and take a moment to pray for these men that are working to reach out to the men in our prisons who are in need of help.

OKLAHOMA makes news that everyone should read.
OKLAHOMA makes news that everyone should read.
The state law passed today, 37 to 9, had a few liberals in the mix, an amendment to place the Ten Commandments on the front entrance to the state capitol. The feds in D.C., along with the ACLU, said it would be a mistake. Hey this is a conservative state, based on Christian values...! Guess what..........We did it anyway. HB 1330
We recently passed a law in the state to incarcerate all illegal immigrants, and ship them back to where they came from, unless they want to get a green card and/or become an American citizen. They all scattered. Hope we didn't send any of them to your state. This was against the advice of the Federal Government, and the ACLU, they said it would be a mistake. Guess what..........we did it anyway. HB 1804
Yesterday we passed a law to include DNA samples from any and all illegals to the Oklahoma database, for criminal investigative purposes. Pelosi said it was unconstitutional. Guess what........We did it anyway. SB 1102
Several weeks ago, we passed a law, declaring Oklahoma as a Sovereign state, not under the Federal Government directives. That, for your information, makes Oklahoma and Texas the only states to do so. Guess what.........More states are likely to follow. Louisiana, Alabama, Georgia, both Carolina's, Tennessee, Kentucky, Missouri, Arkansas, West Virginia, just to name a few. Should Mississippi act, so will Florida. Save your confederate money, it appears the South is about to rise up once again. HJR 1003
The federal Government has made bold steps to take away our guns. Oklahoma, a week ago, passed a law confirming people in this state have the right to bear arms and transport them in their vehicles. I'm sure that was a set back for the Kennedys and Ms Pelosi.
Guess what..........We did it anyway. 10th Circuit Court of Appeals ruling 3-0
By the way, Obama does not like any of this.
Guess what....who cares...were doing it anyway.

Now
After talking to someone who doesn't like to talk about politics, he asked me "When will we see the change? ...in 50 years?"
Well, I received an email today from our state government that answered this question: May 1st 2009.
On May 1st our state income taxes are going up!
And our State Government is also allowing criminals to not get penalized for a brief window!!! How unfair.
Read the email below to see this terrible news:
Arizona Withholding Changes
Senate Bill 1185 amended the amounts required to be withheld for Arizona withholding purposes. Currently the amount required to be withheld is a percentage of federal withholding. For amounts withheld through April 30, 2009 the amount required to be withheld, at the employee's election, is 10%, 19%, 23%, 25%, 31% or 37% for individuals whose annual compensation is less than $15,000. For individuals whose annual compensation is more than $15,000 the amount that is required to be withheld is 19%, 23%, 25%, 31% or 37%.
For income tax withheld on or after May 1, 2009 through December 31, 2009, the percentages will be increased as follows:
Rates for May 1, 2009 through December 31, 2009
Old New rate
10% 11.5%
19% 21.9%
23% 26.5%
25% 28.8%
31% 35.7%
37% 42.6%
For income tax withheld on or after January 1, 2010 through June 30, 2010, the percentages will be decreased as follows:
Rates for January 1, 2010 through June 30, 2010
Old New rate
11.5% 10.7%
21.9% 20.3%
26.5% 24.5%
28.8% 26.7%
35.7% 33.1%
42.6% 39.5%
For income tax withheld on or after July 1, 2010, the amount withheld will no longer be a percentage of federal withholding. The amounts withheld must be based on tables prescribed by the department.

Wall Street Journal reports on 102% income tax rate
income = (salary + bonus - taxes) / year
A bonus can be used to be part of an employees' expected/planned annual benefit, especially when this bonus is a 'regular occurrence'.
Wall Street Journal Article
Listen to the Podcast on This
According to Michael Medved, if the top 2% (as proposed by Pres. Obama) would pay 100% income tax, it would still not pay for all the new spending this year.
So what happens when the "Rich" is taxed more? They can donate/spend/invest less.
This is really bad for job creating entrepreneurs!
