Quote from andohmeeta:
Host leaders use the G20 stage to push their own agendas â 2012 Mexico, 2013 Russia, 2014 Australia, 2015 Turkey.
dwrowley: âI'm not quite sure why people don't universally see a FTT as both impractical to manage as well as an insanely bad idea...â
clearinghouse: âThere are web sites out there, advocacy groups, and grassroots operations focused around this one issue. I think the elites are definitely financing this because it has all the markers of a propaganda operationâ
zdreg: âthe response to congress has to have a mathematical example which shows that the FTT would put you out of business. more importantly the tax will never be collected because traders will withdraw from the market.
I don't believe that fazio or harkin understand this point.â
These comments highlight absence of a âNON-trader-biasedâ (anonymously composed) FTT website compiling simplified analysis of the stealth tax, demystifying its dangers and complexities. Ordinary, mass-dudded people have no alternative, truthful, readily understood resource.
Persuasion requires clarification using the KISS principle. The deceivers are applying this tactic.
Ready links to excerpts from original IMF report the recent EU report (that debunked their own proposal), points from yesterdayâs Chance 14 questions etc. etc. are hidden truths and factually important.
In any campaign the public (and political researchers/advisors) must be facilitated with facts. It's too easy for them to receive and believe the loudest, most insistent voices.
e.g. "Financial Transaction Tax - the Hidden (Ugly) Truth". The link to an educational, NON-trader-biased resource could become the gold standard go-to for journalists, politicians, news comments etc.
