What workable plan does she have except for a wealth redistribution? Why hasn't Obama implemented it already?

How many immigrants are you sheltering personally?

Does you house have front door with a big lock and a monitoring system? Do you hold your money in a secure bank account? Does your car have anti-theft protection? Why not let the immigrants live with you?

Clinton has no economic plan other than taking money from people until they drop dead: short-term gain, long-term pain.

Legal immigrants - yes, illegals - no! I guess you are living in a country with open borders and in a house with no walls and you are proud of it.

Expect the FTT put back on the front burner.

If you want to apply it only to financial markets but not to any other market then your logic is deficient. Financial markets with their strong mathematical foundation and efficiency represent the model of how the free markets of all kinds are operating. I am sure your profit margins are much...

What fight? I am just trying to find a logic in your logic with your help. If the govt wants to charge cancellation fees for financial transactions, so why not do it for any business like the one you own. If you feel like it's an uphill battle for you, forget about it.

I do trade cancellations quite a dozen times a day. But what does it have to do with the govt? Are you ok if the govt would tax all business inquiries of your potential customers of your computer services business?

I've explained it in my post: majority of small business owners I know do cash transactions that go underreported in tax returns. FYI, top 1% of people pay 40% of taxes in America. I guess you are the minority in terms of taxes. Just curious what kind of business with no cash transactions do...

Do you have a cash business? Many people I know who do cash transactions under report their taxes. It would be interesting to know that top 1% of people pay 40% of taxes in America.

Financial institutions and large corps are the only ones who pay taxes in America. The FTT would be like killing the goose that lays the golden eggs.

Don't trade forex.

Impressive. You are a perfect candidate for raising capital.

I like nothing about FTT. Only capital gains should be taxed and capital losses should be deducted immediately. That's the only fair taxation I can think of.

Not at all. Are you?

Yes, that's the idea of wash sales rule: pay taxes on profits now but delay deductions on losses until later. You will have to wait for 30 days before starting trading next year to avoid wash sales rule.
