Chasing the Wind

News. Faith. Nonsense.

My Tax Burden

Would you like to know why the US economy is about to take a nosedive yet again? It’s because people will have less to spend. A *lot* less.

Check out MyTaxBurden.org. Plug in fictitious numbers if you want. Then press the “Calculate” button and see how much more in taxes you’re about to spend next year when the Bush tax cuts expire.

People have less to spend, so they spend less. Rocket science.

    Hey, it’s nice to hear from you again. Even if you are bringing us bad news… And I like the new design. It feels fresh, clean, and not overburdened.

    I understand that feeling. I started school full time plus working graveyards full time. Having a life has kind of taken second burner for now. 😀

About Me

Michael, a sinner saved by grace, sharing what the good Lord has shared with me.

Solomon, in the book of Ecclesiastes, said, “I have seen all the things that are done under the sun; all of them are meaningless, a chasing after the wind.”

If you’re not living for the glory of God, then what you’re doing is meaningless, no matter what it is. Living for God gives life meaning, and enjoying a “chasing after the wind” is a gift from God. I’m doing what I can to enjoy this gift daily.

Got questions? I’m not surprised. If you have any questions about Chasing the Wind, you can email me at chasingthewind@outlook.com.
