40

The number forty has shown up twice in the past five days and it has absolutely nothing to do with your age.
I saw Newt on the Fox network talking with Bill O'Reilly about Obama's plan to reduce the percentage of tax reduction private citizens receive for charitable donations. The number will decrease from 33% to 28%. The amount organizations will not be receiving will come to approximately $40 billion dollars.
Cap and Trade is another trendy term and it deals with carbon emissions the current administration wants to reduce based on energy consumption of coal, gas and oil. Haven't you heard that Obama wants to "go green". Independent market strategists tell us that, when implemented, our energy costs will increase by 40%.
This is an easy one to understand. Figure out what your energy costs for your home are on a monthly, quarterly, or yearly basis then increase that number by 40%.
