Britain's Treasury chief George Osborne has announced tax increases and the
toughest cuts to public spending in decades in an emergency budget aimed at
sharply reducing the country's record debt.
After decades of run a way government spending under Gordon Brown, the newly
elected leadership last month didn’t waste much time.
The budget includes a lengthy list of tax increases and spending cuts on
welfare programs and government departments.

p******e 发帖数: 897 | 2 The modern Republican argument about taxes seems to boil down to two
principles, both misguided: Taxes can be reduced, but they can never be
allowed to go up. And whatever level taxes are at, they are too high.
Think back to the beginning of the Bush administration tax cuts. It seems
almost impossible to believe, but the argument then was that the budget
surplus was too large. There was, or so President George W. Bush assured us,
ample cash to cut taxes for everyone and protect the Social Securi |

the need to cut America's massive budget deficit. Republican senators have
claimed that we are in danger of permanently crippling the economy.
Conservative economists and pundits warn of a Greece-like crisis in which
America will be able to borrow only at exorbitant interest rates. So when an
opportunity presents itself to cut those deficits by about a quarter --

I am not sure about several years ago but right now, this is the right thing

annual earnings of $250,000 or more would help the economy, supporting the
position President Barack Obama has stressed in his re-election campaign.
The survey by the Pew Research Center released yesterday shows that 44
percent said the higher taxes would be beneficial, while 22 percent said
such a move would harm the economy and 24 percent said there would be no
effect.

level. you better really believe what you spinned and this can fool other
people.
during both debates, Obama attacked him on the $5T tax cut and $2T military
spending increase. Romney's response was only denying the $5T tax cut. But
he did not even dare to deny the $2T military spending increase nor spin
it the way you did.

off-ramps on this one. We need to keep the pressure up to compromise. Not
turn off the pressure. Only way the spending cuts will not take place is if
congress gets back to work and agrees on a balanced plan to reduce the
deficit by at least $1.2 trillion. That is what they need to do. That’s the
job they promise to do"

前天早上去上班,在一个路口要右转,碰到红灯,前面车也不多,有八九辆的样子,于是就
从右拐到有几个小店的一小片商业区里穿过去,上到我右转的路上,然后马上就有一辆警车从后边追上来,给了我一张ticket,是Cut across prohibited property,上面没写罚金金额,只是写了出庭日期.这种罚单出庭的话有赢的可能吗?能不能说当时我拐进去是想去店里买点东西带去公司里当午饭,但又临时改变主意了,所以就直接穿过那个小商业区上路了.以前早上上班在那条路上也见过好几次有人被警察pull over的,以前还以为大概是因为超速,现在才明白应该大多都是因为Cut across prohibited property.

我也不让。反正车子平行着开,就算他撞过来我也不怕,我这边靠山,他那边靠悬崖。
并行了10秒后,我当时还是让了。后来想想,这么干还是危险太大,害人害己啊,不过

我准备H1B回国签证. 请教一个问题.
老板减了我的工资 (我当时不知道H1B不可以减工资).

salary.
HR说不能减工资,除非申请重新H1B.老板知道后决定补给我减掉的工资,我听说要出示
6个月的paycheck,但是我的前5个月的paycheck显示的是cut后的monthly
salary, 只有最后一个月会显示(I-797上的monthly salary + 补给我的过去几个月的
工资).
请问
1. 这种情况会被拒签吗?这样算做我的I-797无效吗?
2. 还是补上工资就没事,或者补上工资本身不符合规定?
