Republicans are a stupid bunch.

Quote from jem:

they have chance to re invest the money to grow their businesses or investments.

surely as a trader you feel the pinch in a big way.

when I was full time.. I took the penalty and only paid once a year.

A fair point, but you would only enjoy that advantage for the first year.

Btw, I am not a trader. Not even a sole proprietor or, sadly, even a private owner.

You're not a trader? What are you doing on a trading forum? :(

I'm not, practically speaking, on a trading forum; I confine my activity to the politics and religion board. But I once fancied that I'd start trading full-time, back in the "bull" market of the dotcom bubble, and that's how I found this place.
 
Quote from Free Thinker:

hey maverick. i hope you trade better than you analyze people. dont hate the police. they have a thankless but necessary job. dont hate the military. they are necessary for protection of the homeland. some authority is necessary for a society to function. could you be any more wrong?

I like reading Maverick's posts about trading. Political or religious views probably don't have much correlation with trading.

Alright, alright...you can stay. Just simmer down now. :)

Quote from Free Thinker:

so warren buffet, who likes to brag that he still lives in an old house and drives an old car and spends very little on luxuries should be allowed to pay almost nothing?

he should be taxed on what he purchased, yes. i assure you, warren buffet purchases a lot, despite what he brags about. so too, does his company - which incidentally pays a LOT less tax than it should.
 
Quote from Free Thinker:

so, loopholes are ok for some things. interest is not deductable for other consumable items. why housing?
i recieve no benifit from interest deductions and i own a house. houses are bought for other reasons. i agree it would make it less attractive for some people.

why is it you receive no benifit [sic] from the house you bought?

as for interest being deductable on other consumable items, pray tell - what "consumable items" do consumers pay even remotely the same interest on as a house they've purchased? and the interest deduction isn't a "loophole". just because you think it shouldn't be in the tax code doesnt make it a loophole. a "loophole" is an accidental portion of the code that is interpreted or enforced in a different manner than how it is intended to be practiced.

also, if you're going to answer each one of my posts with two of yours, this is going to get difficult to manage in terms of discussion very quickly.

perhaps that's your intent.

Dude, do you not get how stupid you look when you type like this?

Learn the fucking difference between "you're" and "your". That's twice in a row now.
