I bought a delicious b

ning as I approached work. A chicken and bacon melt with southwestern chipotle sauce on a whole wheat bagel with a splash of melted cheese and a vine ripened tomato to top it all off. The drawback- it cost 8 beans and I didn’t bring my toothbrush or gum to work. My speech is going to smell like a weird combination of chipotle and wheat bread all day. I’m not happy about it. I suppose every decision comes with its pros and cons. I have come to the decision that I am going home for the month of August. The first week in August is my last week as an intern and why pay 600 a month when I can be a bus boy and live for free in good old Leicester MA. I am happy to be going home but less thrilled to be leaving Boston. It has been fun in the city. Always something to do no matter what night and if nothing else the police blotter is a bit more interesting in the city then back home. What can I say though; I miss my family, friends, woods, and free food. Then of course it will not be too long until I move back to Amherst to finish college!
It is weird to think that I am just a year shy of being done with college. What a great three years it
has been. I would really like to think that the rest of my days will be just as exciting as college. Most people will tell you college is the time of your life and in more or less words will hint at the fact that life’s excitement sort of tapers off with each year separating the year you graduate to now in whatever year this is. I do not believe that has to be the case at all. Life is full of excitement; you just may have to look in different places. Having said that it still feels weird knowing that this awesome chapter of my life is in its twilight stages. I remember junior prom like it was yesterday! As for what I want to d
o after graduation I am not sure just yet. I know the direction I want to go and I know I want to get PAID for doing whatever it is I do. Some people say money is not important, but it is if you want nice things and early retirement; money is paramount. I would say that is my number 1 goal is to retire early and walk away from whatever I do with enough money to do some great living. Again how am I going to achieve this? That’s a good question. I have thought of making a banana jelly, Jungle Juice Packs, and starting various websites that would be funded through advertisements and I could tell you what they are but then you would steal them! Anyway the point is I have ideas and with a little action they could equal cash money. Like I said previously, don’t neglect your creative side!
Also if anyone reading this blog is well versed with the economy and knows a
bout the American economy I would like to know your take on the federal income tax. I saw this very crazy political conspiracy video called Zeitgeist which claims the federal income tax is unconstitutional. I would like to know the validity of that statement. As far as conspiracy movies go I find them fascinating and many of the issues mentioned worth exploring, but like I said in previous posts I never more then half commit to beliefs. Anyways if you have free time it’s probably worth watching and if nothing else is an entertaining story.

I haven't seen Zeitgeist, but I am a political science major and I can tell you that, yes, theoretically, income taxes are unconstitutional. They, as well as the majority of taxes we now have today, were not a part of what the founding fathers envisioned for the country. Of course, things have changed drastically in the past 200 years. Most of the socioeconomic changes such as income taxes occurred under FDR as a way to prevent the economy from ever having a depression like the one in 1929 again. I suggest you read some info from various viewpoint on the many parts of The New Deal.
It's very complex and hard to know what the best answer really is...
