    1/4% Tax on all stock trades pushed in NY Times today

    "Big guy" exemptions make the whole Transaction tax totally pointless. The whole point is to collect massive revenues, and if the people producing nearly all the transactions are exempt, the govt will make hardly any money. Hence, there would be no reason for passing this tax." Yes there...

    Democrats now officially pushing transaction tax according to Erin Burnet

    Once again, the REASON these idiots can force this on people is because nobody takes it seriously. Friends, these socialists are quite serious, and if given the chance, they WILL DO THIS. It is amazing how confident many here continue to be given cap and trade, a HC bill totally...

    Democrats now officially pushing transaction tax according to Erin Burnet

    Really? Have you heard Jim Cramer, the guy who was either bought (most likely) or threatened? Ya know, it amazes me how people KEEP assuming this will not go anywhere, despite the momentum obviously building. These goons need revenue, and they can almost taste this, it is such an opportunity...

    1/4% Tax on all stock trades pushed in NY Times today

    See my other thread. Once big names that have been bought off or threatened (Cramer) the momentum will build with frightening speed. Couple that with most "conservative" bloggers like Redstate, Malkin, etc. are only on health care and have not taken the cause up, only traders like us, and it...

    Democrats now officially pushing transaction tax according to Erin Burnet

    Ironic that the tax will wipe out most the small business types like many of us with less than 250K size accounts for day trading. It will affect the super rich the least because A) they can afford it and still make green and B) connected exchange members will get their exemptions in exchange...

    Democrats now officially pushing transaction tax according to Erin Burnet

    Socialist Wall Street hooker Erin Burnet revealed moments ago that according to her, talking to Jim Cramer, that the dreaded "it will never happen!" tax that ET posters scoff over "not going anywhere except in Pete Difazzio's mind" IS being bandied about now. In fact, Cramer almost sounded ok...

    A must watch video made in 1948...

    It is our choice to allow them to keep up this attitude. We should have had this in the schools years ago, as now the critics will cry propaganda, but it is never to late to TRY to start. This video should play in every school, every workplace, every subway, every train station, every...

    "When will people in this country understand that the Democrats true agenda is to centralize power (via wealth grabs) under the guise of "fairness, compassion and going green"? Exactly. It is all about power and consolidation. It is all in Orwell's Animal Farm and based on human nature...

    Pelosi now wants GLOBAL transaction tax on individual stock trades!

    Yep, those who said do not worry may want to reconsider their confidence. There is NO limit to the damage these socialist spread the wealth around pundits can cause if given the chance. On CNBC this morning, a woman who teaches (!!!) economics argued for it, to "encourage long term...
