Dave Ramsey Article - Butt Scratching and Bass Fishing

[big bend gyrene]

Don't know how many folks on the board have heard Dave Ramsey's radio show, but imagine many may have. If you haven't he is a radio host who focuses on helping folks use discipline and hard work to get out of debt and to enjoy freedoms associated with savings. His show does not normally focus on politics, but he recently published an interesting article after one of the political issues of the day struck a nerve.

Now I'll be the first to admit to being a big fisherman and will plead the 5th on the other portion of the title , but I will say that the article doesn't offend me and I admittedly agree with his key points.

I'm sharing two links, the first to an audio clip of Dave actually reading the article, and the second a link to a transcript. I encourage listening to the audio if the link works...

I would be shocked if everyone on the board sees 100% eye to eye on this political issue, but will say that I have admired during previous posts that the members have had the ability to disagree without turning the posts into flamefests. I sincerely hope this also proves to be the case with this post.

Dammit man...I don't know whether to scratch my butt or ask if I can pay more taxes.
Think for now I will just Scratch and Think.

Probably should just forget the thinking and stick to the scratching

I love this line. He is absolutely correct.

Now please excuse me while I go scratch my butt and get ready to go bass fishing tomorrow.
