I saw that...gave me nightmares last night...

Maybe we should all stop workin...kind of a different take of John Gault

We do but they cheat!...that's how they get by in life!

Well the repubs must be doin somthin wrong...caus they ain't rich...only the one's that work for a living.

Demoncraps are the richest 1% cause they usurped it from everyone else...it's the only way they can get money...too stupid to do it any other way.

I guess there is an element of truth there since socialist believe the government has money as long as they can still operate a printing press.

I have been since 4 years of Peanuts Jimmy Malaise helped me grow a brain and tell him to go to hell by voting for Ronald Reagan.
Too many voters are not real American citizens anymore. Just ignorant clueless sheeple.
I watched some boneheads in bikinis get questioned by Watters World on Fox last night. Disgraceful. Couldn't watch it all.
Had too much Independence Day barbecue in me to get sick.

First of all, Neal, thank you for your service to our country. I have voted in every election since I could vote. Unfortunately, moochers now comprise almost fifty percent of the voters in our country. They love taxes, especially the ones that they don't pay.

Tell them to go to Hell at the voting booth. We've got to start standing up to these people with these destructive mindsets.

Taxes have NEVER been about revenue under the socialists. They've always been about social engineering, i.e., about punishing the productive - revenue be damned.

The jackass party has never seen a tax it did not like. Period.
Yes, I'm talking like the Taxer-In-Chief. Period.

now you are understanding how government works.

what I have also found is that when there are alternatives to legally paying the taxes, other taxes are there that apply to the alternatives and they all seem to come out the same.

example is in order to get rid of employees and all the hassles and taxes with them, we might choose to automate. Then I find that at least in Nevada there is about a 1.5% business property tax payable on all machinery- EVERY YEAR. So not only does one have to build or buy the machine, you have to pay essentially an asset tax every year for the privilege of owning and using it.

As usual the Democrats want to get at the Republican RICH but there are probably more rich Democrats! Those who will suffer the most will be the middle class traders, because they would trade more, the rich can afford to sit on their investments for a longer time. Democrats are lousey economists, they never get it right, they only make it worse.

subverting laws is something that they calculate and build it into the fines you will pay if and when someone is caught.

I think the government generally knows what will happen. They have many agendas. Their first agenda is to increase governmental powers by passing laws. Secondly, they want the new power to increase revenue. Thirdly, they stupidly underestimate the citizenry's ability to subvert laws

It is a very poorly thought out plan by someone who is not even good at playing tic-tac-toe. A chess player would look down the road to see the totally foreseeable, but unintended consequences. So lets examine these consequences: 1 the stated purpose is to dissuade high frequency trading. 2 high frequency trading currently generates tax revenue. 3 if high frequency trading disappears, so does the tax revenue that is currently being generated and the proposed tax is never realized. What's wrong with this picture?

and you would be right....

Just another power play to gain control of your freedom in one more area.
An Analogy: This is how the left has taken over our country. - A woman wants to poison her husband. Rather than give him a single dose of arsenic, which would surely put suspicion of murder on her, she feeds him small amounts at a time until it builds up in his system. He appears to become sickly and fulfills everyone's expectations by expiring after a while and thus suspicion is diverted away from the loyal wife who stuck by him in his death throes.

We have been getting fed the arsenic of socialism for 100 years and it is on the verge of killing us. If Mrs. Clinkton is elected, it may well be the final dose.

Hillary will be against it, cause the wall street people have bought her off.

Due to the poor economic condition of the country the tax revenues being confiscated by the government has diminished so the elected government workers have a need to protect their income so they band together, trust me the republicans too are in on the scam, to raise taxes on anything and everything they think they can get away with. Better trade like crazy until the tax is put into "LAW"!!!

This sounds like a plan to raise more money for the government. The reasons they bring up are just excuses to get more money. I find it valuable to translate all things the politicians and government say in the light of their hidden agendas.

Exactly...one thing I've noticed about wall street...they can always figure a way around and make profit anyway...the proverbial raspberry!
