If I have a scanned multipage document that needs faxed, which happens at my work with medical and education files, they don't run into file size issues like jpgs do.
So your 300% more Sheet Feed Scanner still requires you to deal with the inherent limits to email attachment size, if the document requires a signature, you still have to print it. Fax machines work better with legal and business documents than email attachments.
That said, your cheap all-in-one scanner/printer/copiers are all garbage, in 11 years of supporting them, I've never seen one last a calendar year before failing.
Video out on the iPod isn't at the headphone jack.
And there are a ton of 3rd party devices that use Apple's 30 pin connector, I just bought a new Pioneer AV receiver, it came with a 30 pin to USB cable and connects to my iPod Video, iPhone 3G, iPhone 4 and iPad.
Likewise I have a FM transmitter that connects to an iPod for my car.
If the 16th Amendment is a mistake, it is a mistake made by 42 of the 48 states in existence at that time.
Three states rejected it Connecticut, Rhode Island and Utah, while three didn't even consider it.
Unlike the 18th Amendment, the 16th Amendment has never been repealed.
The Federal Reserve Act and the 16th Amendment are not linked. Ratification of the 16th Amendment started in 1909, the National Monetary Commission report wasn't submitted to Congress until January 9, 1912. By January 9, 1912 31 states had already ratified the 16th Amendment.
If there is a Constitutional Amendment, then it's not unconstitutional.
As for the "effective taxes", there are not historical documents or data sets to support that claim.
Income Tax in the US dates to 1861, not 1913.
In order to help pay for its war effort in the American Civil War, the United States government imposed its first personal income tax, on August 5, 1861, as part of the Revenue Act of 1861.
"Poverty, AFAIC, is created by government spending (and regulating/taxing/subsidizing) and wealth is created by the private sector investment. Government is not (or shouldn't be) here to invest. It's here with a specific spending function - protect liberties. That's all that all of the government must be concerned with."
Article 1, Section 8 The Congress shall have Power To lay and collect Taxes, Duties, Imposts and Excises, to pay the Debts and provide for the common Defence and general Welfare of the United States; but all Duties, Imposts and Excises shall be uniform throughout the United States;
General Welfare means social programs, they aren't theft, and the US began taxation programs during the Washington administration.
If welfare is evil, does the US military-industrial complex strike you as evil? Lockheed Martin for example makes the vast majority of it's income from US government contracts, as does Northrop Grumman, General Dynamic Land Systems, TRW and many others.
I see you failed American History of the 20th century.
Progressivism as a political movement emerged in reference to a more general response to the vast changes brought by industrialization: an alternative to both the traditional conservative response to social and economic issues and to the various more radical streams of socialism and anarchism which opposed them.
Theodore Roosevelt, Wilson, FDR and LBJ are noted Progressives.
I believe that the Estate Tax system, even if the Bush cuts are repealed, will not lead to all of an estate's wealth going to the government, at the same time with an Estate Tax, it does not create a noble class of ultra wealthy land owners. I don't see government spending and welfare as an evil.
Reasonable tax regimes don't lead to the abolishment of private property, the 1950s saw the highest post-WW2 tax rates in the United States and also the lowest unemployment rates.
A progressive tax is a tax by which the tax rate increases as the taxable base amount increases. Income taxes are progressive as are Estate Taxes, sales taxes are regressive in that everyone pays the same percentage, leading to the poor paying a greater share of their disposable income.
So in no way does "progressive", either in politics or tax systems mean theft.
Inheritance tax is not theft. It is a very progressive tax in that it serves to prevent the perpetuation of wealth, free of tax, in wealthy families and are “a certain corrective against the development of a race of idle rich”.
No, the Mineral Virginia Earthquake was no exaggerated. There was an earthquake, it did very little damage and we have a magnitude, location and depth.
Airplane mode conforms with FAA standards for flight, putting a device to sleep and stowing them conforms with FAA regulations.
"Except as provided in paragraph (b) of this section, no person may operate, nor may any operator or pilot in command of an aircraft allow the operation of, any portable electronic device on any U.S.-registered civil aircraft operating under this part."
I got my first IT job in August of '97, think I came across this website that had a "Chips and Dips" tagline in September or so. For years it was one of the first pages I went to each day.
Rob said I was the first one to email in that I saw his picture in Wired when the magazine showed up in the mail, that must have been in the spring of '98.
Eventually I went back to school and wasn't doing the IT thing so/. fell down in my priority, but I still lurk here and sometimes pick fights.

The fax dates to 1865, so it has a full 100 years on email
A jpg pasted into a document and emailed isn't legally binding in the United States.
My work requires real signatures.
If I have a scanned multipage document that needs faxed, which happens at my work with medical and education files, they don't run into file size issues like jpgs do.
Since I support educators, they always call me and they never last more than a year.
Its usually the scanner that goes out on them.
Sheet feed scanners, not a single sheet scanner.

Anchorage is more moderate because of proximity to the sea.
My wife teaches High School science in Anchorage, if its above 10 F they can go outside for school work.
In the winter, the dark is more of a hinderance to working outside than the cold.
TCP/IP was on by default in System 7.5 and later.
I worked in a mixed network of 7.1.x, 7.5.x and later OS 8 machines, it was the 7.1.x machines that required TCP/IP be toggled off.
TCP/IP going off on those was the first warning sign the PRAM battery was failing.

Have you read the United States Constitution?
http://www.archives.gov/exhibits/charters/constitution_transcript.html
Article 1, Section 8
The Congress shall have Power To lay and collect Taxes, Duties, Imposts and Excises, to pay the Debts and provide for the common Defence and general Welfare of the United States; but all Duties, Imposts and Excises shall be uniform throughout the United States;
General Welfare means social programs, they aren't theft, and the US began taxation programs during the Washington administration.
As for the statement that no one paid income tax in the 1950s, that is just ridiculous, there were accountants, there were ledgers and people went to prison for tax evasion.

1952-53 - 22.2% on income above $4000.
92% at $400,000.
Average income was $4011
And the bulk of US households made more than $4000 a year.
If welfare is evil, does the US military-industrial complex strike you as evil? Lockheed Martin for example makes the vast majority of it's income from US government contracts, as does Northrop Grumman, General Dynamic Land Systems, TRW and many others.
