I don't know who is putting the spin on what some of you are reading but in 2006 the top 1% of taxpayers paid 40% of all federal income taxes and the top 5% paid 60% of all federal income taxes. The bottom 40% paid about 3-4% of all federal income taxes.

The problem with this bill is that it allows a union to be formed when a majority of workers sign an authorization card. If the vote is by secret ballot workers are free to vote their convictions. If a worker was not in favor of a union then one would have to refuse to sign an authorization card in front of union officials and fellow workers. There would definitely be an intimidation factor in the process. That is the complete concept behind this bill. The object is not to allow a secret vote so the union officials and workers who want to form a union can harass the others workers until they give in to the union. By the way, the problems with the Big Three automakers are 100% caused by the UAW.

What if you wrote a column and explained the situation to everyone, then Mr Garner and the rest of us would know the reason(s) behind the resignation. It certainly doesn't make sense to pay Tuberville 5.1 million dollars to resign. But then I don't have insight as to what was said at the meeting between Tuberville and Jacobs.

I have been watching digital stations with an antenna for several years and the statement that you either get a perfect picture or none at all is a misnomer. With a weak signal you can get a picture that is perfect most of the time but does occasionally break up like a scattered jigsaw puzzle. Nothing man made is perfect.

Justice has not been served until the woman spends a few years in jail. It would not be a surprise if she got no time in jail at all.

Don't be so picky SouthernAttitude1. One could live in Opp and name their business Sweet Gum Bottom whatever. In my opinion the SGB B&B is within the Sweet Gum Bottom city limits. There was not a Sweet Gum Bottom Bed & Breakfast in Sweet Gum Bottom when Rick & Laura chose that name.
