Title: Who's Gonna Pay for it??
Post by: Teresa Heilevang on October 06, 2008, 10:58:16 PM
Just who in the hell is going to foot this bill? Where is the money going to come from?

I'll give you 3 guesses...and the first 2 don't count!  >:(

Let's see ... No Capital Gains Taxes for new start up businesses ... I don't know about the rest of you, but I see capital gains as a problem for established business that is being passes on due to death or retirement of an owner, or for people moving into retirement and liquidating the assets that they need for retirement.  If I were looking to start or keep a new business going and I had a net worth situation that would put me in trouble with capital gains, I'm not sure I would risk my wealth in business.

No tax increase and tax cuts to everyone except the mean ugly rich, but we are going to buy health insurance for everyone on top of every other program proposed.  You think the war is expensive ... You ain't seen nothin' yet!

This guy thinks we are a bunch of toddlers, and we usually prove these guys right, that can be bought off with a promise of new toys and candy.  I was thinking a couple AR's would be in line if this guy got in, but I'm gonna save my cash for K-Y  :'(

Yeah, but that crap makes SUCH an effective soundbite for the hypnotized masses who wouldn't know capital gains from capital letters.

Some of the people hardest hit by Capital Gains taxes in my area are family farmers.  Dad dies and the kids (who are most often involved in the farming operation with Dad) have to sell the farm to pay the taxes.  These, aparently, are the EEEVIL rich to whom Barry wants to stick it.
