who is this little douche for the tax? go back to high school ur lunch break is over~

It seems from the talk from Pelosi, it doesnt have to be every country just major financial centers, and then the can probably legislate the others away. Just like Switzerland is no longer a tax haven they can do the same things with this tax. As long as they get a majority of Europe.

Obama was just talking on the road in PA to mainstreeters, and said there was a lot of funny business going on in Wall Street. That shit doesnt help

one 1 es its about 22-23 bucks total a round turn

Well I was pretty disappointed with how that went, atleast Larry was there to ask some questions. I am not sure if that helped the cause at all. They are pitting a trader against and Economist, thats a tough one.

I just commented on Scotts blog

I am for Scott being on tv as long as he appeals to mainstreet and how mainstreet pays this tax. If he starts talking about traders and how his businees and traders will be out of business, then that is not good press. No one cares about the day traders, wo we have to harp on the mainstreet...

Not sure if anyone read or posted this article from 2 days ago but good read. http://news.alibaba.com/article/detail/markets/100210415-1-eu-official-says-%2522tobin-tax%2522.html

If you read up on Kahn he is a socialist. But since he is in the IMF he usually agrees with US treasury policy so we shall see what happens. He is also supposed tobe mentioned as a candidate in the next french election as well. Our next step is the imf, remember IMF has no law making or...

We need for them to differentiate on the word fee and tax, and Pelosi seems to be set on taxes for jobs while geithner seems to want a fee or tax to fund future crisis, whatever this is doesnt sound great!

No that is John Larsons bill from the summer, the new bill has not been posted online yet

There are no exemptions for products, just 100k total for transactions per year.

They could but doubt it would fly, they would alll have to compromise on something.

Got ya! He called himself an indie not me :) Before my time I guess!

I want to see him go more indepth on this and what Obama thinks will help us to understand what they are thinking. I also want it out of the mind of Pelosi. It seems that one senator is going to introduce a bill next week in the senate, with Bernard Saunders whom is an independent. Dam there...

http://www.foxbusiness.com/story/markets/geithner-fbn-b-bank-america-deal/ Later in the interview, Geithner told Liz Claman he does not support a tax on stock trades. On a transaction tax proposal that has been kicked around in Congress as a way to generate much-needed revenue, Geithner...

Larsons bill was not introduced just drafted so far, his bill calls for all OTC derivitives to be taxed .25% and nothing else

Obama just mentioned Blinder and Mishel 2 guys on tv this past week for the tax, but Obama mentioned the good idea from them were job tax credits nothing about the tax which is good so far. He is going over all teh good ideas from the meeting and has not mentioned that tax yet, so hopefully he wont!
