ya know, clam pickers are comercial, the down side to what is happening is that the smaller clam pickers companies will be forced out of business where as the larger clam picker corps will see a boon in prosperity..
"the rich getting richer"
in these times of economic slumps that is exactly what happens. time and time again....
in michigan, we got slapped with a residential property tax increase to pay for all those tax breaks they gave to ford motor company.
I just got my tax essesment last week, my property value dropped $20,000.oo and my taxible value went up 17% wich means I got a property tax hike of about $100.oo for the year and loss of $20,000.oo in home equity on my home... Whats worse is I cant claim that loss on my income tax.[pirate]
worse yet is my house is now valued at 50% of what it would cost to rebuild, looks like I will have to cut back on the hallapino dip, lord forbid should I let one fly near a spark. with the deflated value of my property it makes me wonder if the insurance company wont use a buy out clause in thier pollicy and put me out on the street.
buy out clause meaning "rebuld, replace, or buy out wich ever is cheeper" incase of fire or other accidental distruction...[pirate]
I could go on, but it scares me to even think about it...
so the small clam picker will be facing now even more grulling slopy shore to endure just to keep his head out of water... :Pun intended
I cirtainly can understand his plight, [#ff0000]one dose have to ask[/#ff0000], [#6000bf]What the hey? my state just got a fist full of billions, So why do I have to take the hit?[/#6000bf]
