Default Nancy Pelosi's New Taxes

Subject: Nancy Pelosi's new taxes






.

Read the last paragraph even if you skip the rest ~



You aren't going to believe this.



Madam speaker Nancy Pelosi wants to put a Windfall tax on all stock market profits (including Retirement fund, 401K's and Mutual Funds! alas it is true. all to help the 12 Million Illegal Immigrants and other unemployed Minorities!









Boy, are we in trouble... This woman is frightening. Take special note of the last paragraph. Is she really this whacked out?

Nancy Pelosi condemned the new record highs of the stock market as "just another example of Bush policies helping the rich get richer". "First Bush cut taxes for the rich and the economy has rebounded with new record low unemployment rates, which only means wealthy employers are getting even wealthier at the expense of the underpaid working class".

She went on to say "Despite the billions of dollars being spent in Iraq our economy is still strong an d government tax revenues are at all time highs What this really means is that business is exploiting the war effort and working Americans, just to put money in their own pockets".

When questioned about recent stock market highs she responded "Only the rich benefit from these record highs. Working Americans, welfare recipients, the unemployed and minorities are not sharing in these obscene record highs". "There is no question these windfall profits and income created by the Bush administration need to be taxed at 100% rate and those dollars redistributed to the poor and working class". "Profits from the stock market do not reward the hard work of our working class who, by their hard work, are responsible for generating these corporate profits that create stock market profits for the rich. We in congress will need to address this issue to either tax these profits or to control the stock market to prevent this unearned income to flow to the rich."

When asked about the fact that over 80% of all Americans have investments in mutual funds, retirement funds, 401K's, and the stock market she replied "That may be true, but probably only 5% account for 90% of all these investment dollars. That's just more "trickle down" economics claiming that if a corporation is successful that everyone from the CEO to the floor sweeper benefit from higher wages and job security which is ridiculous". "How much of this 'trickle down' ever get to the unemployed and minorities in our county? None, and that's the tragedy of these stock market highs."

"We democrats are going to address this issue after the election when we take control of the congress. We will return to the 60% to 80% tax rates on the rich and we will be able to take at least 30% of all current lower Federal Income Tax tax payers off the roles and increase government income substantially. We need to work toward the goal of equalizing income in our country and at the same time li m it ing the amount the rich can invest."

When asked how these new tax dollars would be spent, she replied ; ; "We need to raise the standard of living of our poor, unemployed and minorities. For example, we have an estimated 12 million illegal immigrants in our country who need our help along with millions of unemployed minorities. Stock market windfall profits taxes could go a long ways to guarantee these people the standard of living they would like to have as "Americans"."

Oh but the democrat-socialists aren't in alignment with the socialist-democrats.
They don't have the identical concepts, perspectives, and agendas..
They don't make enemy strategies their own policies.
They don't aid and abet sworn enemies of our Nation ( Russia, Korea, Vietnam, Palestine, OPEC, Iran, Lebanon, tec,etc)
( George Soros, an admitted socialist stock-operator, funds the democrat-socialist propaganda machine..
and he actively works to make America a collectivist socialist "paradise")

The Democrats ALWAYS have a better plan for YOUR money. You may be smart enough to earn it but you sure as hell aren't smart enough to spend it.

Anyone care to hazard a guess on why the Liberal MSM isn't making this a front page Story?

When asked how these new tax dollars would be spent, she replied ; ; "We need to raise the standard of living of our poor, unemployed and minorities. For example, we have an estimated 12 million illegal immigrants in our country who need our help along with millions of unemployed minorities. Stock market windfall profits taxes could go a long ways to guarantee these people the standard of living they would like to have as "Americans"."

Again with the rob Peter to pay Paul crap.

I'll tell you liberals what, considering that you guys have an inordinate number of wealthy people associated with your party, and, since you guys seem to want to be so generous with OTHER peoples' money, why don't YOU guys tax the living beJesus out of yourselves, and then take that revenue and "save the world!"

So, let me get this straight....

I work hard, save EVERY penny I have, decide, on my own, to invest and play the market. I do very well for myself, and end up living very comfortably....

Now, you all want to come and TAX the living beJesus out of me because I did well for myself, right?? Instead of allowing me, of my own free will, to give as I choose, right??

Gotcha, I see how that could be construed as very fair....

What is the incentive to do well for yourself IF the federal government is just going to come behind you, decide that, because of the "unfair nature" of all my wealth, we are going to punish you for making the right choices in your life because "we know what is best for you??"

You don;t get it, the Dems don't want you to do well on your own. They want you to depend on Goverment.
