Question: Working and child tax credits help?

I’ve never even thought to look into it until today as I’ve been told it comes with a lot of paperwork. I used the online caluclator to work out how much we might be able to get and it said £151.50. Is that per year? It seems totally not worth anyones time or effort filling in those forms for £12 per month. I suppose it about pays for the TV licence though!

Answer: the best way is just to ring them, they will be open tomorrow, i get £87 child tax credit a month, my husbands earnings and mine added up to 48 thousand if that helps

If you think dogs can’t get the same illnesses and diseases as humans, then you are barking up the wrong tree because your dog can get any illness that a human would. Diabetes is not different in dogs than it is in humans because your dog can still suffer a lot.

This can be a life threatening disease in dogs and if you don’t catch the symptoms right away you could be putting your pet at risk. Here are a few facts that you need to know about diabetes in dogs.

In dogs, diabetes is a disease that attacks the endocrine glands and makes them not function properly. As in the human world, there are two types of diabetes in dogs and they are diabetes insipidus and diabetes mellitus. Diabetes insipidus is the lack of vasopressin in your dog. Vasopressin is a hormone that controls the way your dog’s kidneys take in water. Diabetes mellitus is when the dog’s body can not produce insulin.

Now that you have a slight understanding about on the difference about the two types of diabetes in dogs, let’s take the other type now. Diabetes mellitus is one of the most deadly diseases that your dog can get if you don’t know the symptoms to catch it right away but it can be handled. There are 2 types of diabetes mellitus. Just like human disease of diabetes, you have type 1 and type 2. They are very similar to the affects that humans are dealing with every day.

Type 1 diabetes in dogs is also known as juvenile dog diabetes. It gets its name because this form of diabetes usually shows up when the dog is a younger dog, puppy to age 2 roughly.

Type 2 diabetes is about the same as humans because this disease usually comes into play when the dog gets older and their body can no longer produce the insulin that the dog needs to make its internal organs function. If your dog has this type of diabetes you have to give your dog insulin shots and make sure you check your pets blood sugar level so that your dogs insulin is low you can give them a shot.

No matter if your dog has type 1 or type 2 diabetes, your dog is worth the money and the time you spend on your dog because of the happiness that a pet brings to you and your family. A dog is a pet that is irreplaceable because of the loyalty and the companionship that a dog brings to your family. Take your time and try to understand about diabetes in dogs because it can make a world of difference in your dog’s life.

Question: What did you think of Obamas’ Speech?

Barack Obama promises to cut taxes 95%! “No child will be left behind! Let there be teachers with enhanced salaries!” How does he plan on funding our Public Educational System accredited by our government without taxes?

He wants to spend $150 billion dollars on Nuclear Energy. Barack Obama envisions his Presidential position as a credit line.

Barack Obama proclaims he can end dependency of foreign oil! Geographically, they just have more than we do.

Obama talk’s a good game. His solutions we want to hear. Barack Obama’s game plan to CHANGE is a Short-Term solution and not the Long Term goal I thought we all were seeking out too achieve!

Do you agree or disagree?

Answer: This was one of the best speeches I’ve ever had the opportunity to see live. To me it’s become one of the greats with JFK & FDR. I mean w/everyone’s differences aside, you can’t say that he’s not a remarkable speaker.

Question: Can dollar for dollar tax credit work?

If you don’t know what it is, it is a welfare/taxation system wherein the government is in no way responsible for welfare and social services directly but instead allows for individuals to write everything off of their tax returns. It basically privatizes everything from education to disability services in to a competitive, non-bureaucratic free market and leaves all the spending up to the individual.

I myself am in a wheelchair and can not express how crappy government agencies are with providing things etc. what with all the red tape. Sometimes it’d just seem like it’d be easier for me to go out and buy what I need and somehow charge it on a magical government credit card.

So would a system like this work? I understand it leaves more room for tax fraud but that’s nothin’ good ol’ coercion can’t solve.

Answer: If it is a refundable tax credit (if your credit is greater than your taxes they send you a check) it would work in principle. The earned income tax credit works that way now. The IRS spends a lot of resources to control fraud in the program even though it is easy to keep track of income records with social security numbers and the amount is a fixed formula. I don’t think the IRS can monitor government payments for other purposes, and the fraud problem would be massive. Part of the reason that “crappy government agencies are with providing things etc. what with all the red tape” is to discourge people from using them.
