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

Your 1k would be better served pooled to hire someone to follow his ass and get a pic of him sticking it to a hooker/page/intern, because just looking at him and listening to his whining voice, he probably pays for it.

Someone should follow his dumb ass whenever he goes to the bathroom. He probably gets his rocks off there with other "men" like him like that chump from Minnesota or where ever it was. Get him out of DC fast. Get a camera and catch him with his pants down. The stupid prick.
 
That guy is such a fucking douche bag!!! But, we shouldn't worry, as this tax will never happen. Even Obama's top economic advisor Larry Summers recently stated that he opposes this tax. Bottom line, it will probably never make it out of committee, but even if it did, this bill is deader than dog shit in the house/senate. Hell, even Pelosi is not in favor on this tax right now, although she indicated it is something to explore a few years down the road.
Would this tax be part of Obama's plan on heavy regulations coming to the financial markets? Unlikely. If anything, I can see him wanting to raise minimum margins for everything on day traders, in an effort to curb speculation to a degree. It won't work, but the odds of him supporting a financial transaction tax is very remote at best. So, no need to freak out about this.

She should have also asked DeFazio why it is that he was proposing this VERY SAME TAX back in 2001?

I did not know this. Interesting. Discredits him even further.
