Why does B Hussein Obama want to increase capital gains to hurt private equity fat cats?
Posted by: admin : Category: Elections
Joe M asked:
Private equity fat cats are definitely not overpaid anymore due to the looming impact of the current credit crunch coupled with decreases in consumer spending; hence, they certainly shouldn’t be paying more than long-term capital gains on investments. Period.

I doubt it. His only interest is in making money and he is a nihilist so he will represent whoever presents him with the fattest check and that would be the private equity fat cats.

I believe he is just looking for ways to raise money to pay for the running of the country and the enormous interest on the big loans the repubs have obtained. since the poor and middle class are struggling to make ends meet, he doesn’t have a lot of choices of who to ask…
Maybe they should just tax people the same on all the money that comes in, just consider it all income.

No, Obama wants to increase capital gains taxes because when the “fat cats” trickle those taxes down to the middle and lower classes via price hikes and lower wages to cover the extra expenses, he and other “class warmongers” can use that to call for even higher taxes and as proof that you should vote for them to stop said “fat cats”.
Simple politics. Obama is more of the same. If he wasn’t he would take a clue from Bush, Clinton, Reagan, Kennedy, Nixon and Roosevelt and lower capitial gains to ease the inflation and help the little guy find jobs and keep more money, and to encourage industry rather than service, which is lowering our collective wages as we speak, and raising our trade deficit.
Here’s an example. If Obama really cared, he would rtalk about eliminating gas taxes. Oil Companies, which Obama has vilified, make 27 cents per gallon on gasoline. The federal gov’t makes 18.4 cents in addition to state taxes that average around 20 cents on every gallon. So gov’t makes more profit from gasoline than the “evil” oil companies.
Why doesn’t the agent of change oppose that? Because he feels that the gov’t SHOULD be gouging us. period.

The Dems are not really Capitalists, they are Communists. This tax thing that both candidates are proposing is the straw that broke the camels back. Our forefathers went into revolution mode over a tax on tea as in “No Taxation without Representation.” Anyone here really feeling represented anymore by the clown show in DC? The answer to all new programs and “solutions” is in your pocket and they want it bad.

once upon a time the democrats proposed a bill to exempt the first 100 million dollars from capital gains tax. It was of course defeated….by the republicans. Not because it was too much, but because it was too little.
do some research, and stop with the Foxnews baloney
