President Obama's finance team is recommending a transaction tax. His plan is to sneak it in after the November election to keep it under the radar. This is a 1% tax on all transaction at any financial institution i. e. Banks, Credit Unions, extra. Any deposit you make, or move around within your account, i. e. transfer to, will have a 1% tax charged. If your pay check or your social Security or whatever is direct deposit, 1% tax charged. If you hand carry a check in to deposit, 1% tax charged, If you take cash in to deposit, 1% tax charged.This is from the man who promised that if you make under $250,000 per year, you will not see one penny of new tax.
Keep your eyes and ears open, you will be amazed at what you learn.

Are you suggesting that Barry will impose this through executive fiat (executive order)?

Kick them out of the union.
I am not kidding either. If we the conservatives states dont stand up to this BS then we deserve what we get.

What? 48 percent of what I earn isn’t enough? I presume this is a tax on incoming AND outgoing funds, which makes “1%” a lie. It’s already double that if you take your money out. All I would do is cash my check. I have enough well-armed family for security.

Time to charge these loons with treason for deliberately trying to destroy the United States. They know better. These schemes are NOT done in ignorance, but with malice aforethought.

The UTTER LIE is the concept that these Brokers and Bankers will ‘pay’ that tax.
It will be passed on to the consumer, as it always is.

Spoken like a person who still lives under the delusion that the mere 51-49% Republican majority in his state means that somehow things like this will never happen at home. Wake up, please.

How about we eliminate 50% of federal government jobs and eliminate all pensions that would pay retired govt employees more than $35K per year?
I think it would be a good start.

“How do we allow the criminally insane to run our country into the ground while we sit and watch.”
That’s been the problem. Us normal folks go about our lives, jobs, families, etc., while these parasites dig in and do their damage unnoticed.
Well, the spotlight has been turned on them and they are running for cover.
May we run these maggots to the ends of the earth in November and again in 2012.
