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

The more taxpayers get screwed by these idiot politicians trying to prop up zombies like aig, the greater the liklihood of transtax becoming reality. Somebody has to talk some sense into gummint.
 
Who's on Pelosi's 'bad list?" Non other than Mr. Peter Defazio according to this:

6. Rep. Peter DeFazio (D-Ore.). The squeakiest liberal wheel in the House has always been more than willing to articulate his differences with leadership.

But his role as the lone Democrat to switch from “yes” on the original stimulus bill to a “no” on the House-Senate compromise was viewed as grandstanding in the speaker’s suite.

DeFazio, who chairs a subcommittee on highways and transit, makes a compelling counterargument, saying he was betrayed by Pelosi’s acceptance of lower-than-promised allocations for infrastructure representing 8 percent of the total package.

Just an FYI but pretty funny nontheless :)

Watched it too, he is absolutely clueless, but scary. I think the best way for us to make a statement is to all donate $1K a piece or so to whoever runs against him in his next election, which hopefully is soon.
