First, what exactly was...Libidiot, where to start?<br /><br />First, what exactly was wrong about his 47% statement? 47% of people do not pay taxes. The left is buying votes with entitlement. This is what he was saying and you know it. <br /><br />Dr Benjamin Carson spoke to this at CPAC. <br /><br /><i>“Let’s say somebody were [in the White House] and they wanted to destroy this nation,”“I would create division among the people, encourage a culture of ridicule for basic morality and the principles that made and sustained the country, undermine the financial stability of the nation, and weaken and destroy the military. It appears coincidentally that those are the very things that are happening right now.”</i><br /><br />Through ridicule the media and the rest of the left is keeping us from having the conversation we need to have on entitlements.<br /><br />Enjoy the ride into the shithole you and your heroes on the left have us on.

They as someone going into the bank and handing over ten grand in real money. <br /><br />I would doubt that most of us here have ever has to fill out a report to the bank because we walked in there with $10k worth of cash. <br /><br />It doesn't happen that often. And when I was in banking it was usually car dealerships that completed the reports. That's where the drug dealers find the easiest method to spend their cash.

And DO NOT even think about cutting the defense budget or questioning the militarization of every police force from NYC to East Podunk.<br /><br />... but do cut Social Security and Medicare.

And I'm so glad you're better.<br /><br />JonBerg, it was reassuring that though that amount is small, banks do notice when someone takes, for example, 14 times $10 Grand out of the bank.<br /><br />My BIGGEST worry (almost) is that our people supposedly helping us survive the threat are three things:<br /><br />A. Stupid<br />B. Not trained correctly.<br />C. Mostly interested only in a paycheck<br /><br />I think Americans used to care desperately for their neighbors, now I think we're so diverse and full of entitlement junkies that even those working couldn't give a damn as long as they get their paycheck from Uncle Sam for working, for example, the TSA and behaving as we've recently heard they do; ignorant, lazy, and uncaring.<br /><br />25 years ago, I heard an ex bigwig in the FBI or CIA on CSPAN giving a talk about how they get NO (NONE) applicants anymore of any real quality, that they used to get Yale and Harvard grads coming in and NONE (none) of them apply for the FBI or CIA anymore. None also pass the theft lie detector test...NONE. And none haven't done drugs.<br />The left has made that kind of patriotism look silly to our young people, and there is no "greatest generation" thinking anymore IN GENERAL....<br /><br />Obviously, we have soldiers in Afghanistan we have all heard say they wish we were staying even tho they could lose their life.. because they feel we ARE making progress there, and all those great guys who gave their lives cared...but in general?

All I read is that they are finally getting around to adding that data to other data they already have to spot patterns. That that makes sense to me. <br /><br />Originally the $10k reporting was used for illegal activities such as drugs and gambling. One can argue that the $10k is certainly too low by today's standards since that was the amount when I started in banking in the late 70's. but we are talking about $10k in CASH. <br /><br />I don't know about you, but I rarely go around with $10k in cash. <br /><br />The "over reporting" the article is referring to is due to people who go to the bank and drop $9k in cash and then another $7k, as an example. <br /><br />When it's obvious that someone is deliberately keeping the cash deposits under $10k, the bank naturally has to wonder if the customer is deliberately attempting to circumvent the report., so the bank will make that customer report all large cash deposits as a routine. <br /><br />It sounds to me like they are only taking the data and using it in a smarter way to find terrorist.<br /><br />Not a problem in my book.
