Windfall Tax on Retirement Income by Nancy Pelosi [Snopes says it is false]

Posted on 03/23/2009 12:02:37 PM PDT by pantherskincreek

Just came across this and hoping it is not true but afraid it probably is:

Windfall Tax on Retirement Income

Adding a tax to your retirement is simply another way of saying to the American people, you're so darn stupid that we're going to keep doing this until we drain every cent from you. That's what the Speaker of the House is saying... Read below...............

Nancy Pelosi�wants a Windfall Tax on Retirement�Income.� In other words tax what you have made by investing toward your retirement. This woman is a nut case! You aren't going to believe this...

Madam speaker Nancy Pelosi wants to put a Windfall Tax on all stock market profits (including Retirement fund, 401K and Mutual Funds! Alas, it is true - all to help the 12 Million Illegal Immigrants and other unemployed Minorities!

This woman is frightening. She quotes...' We need to work toward the goal of equalizing income, (didn't Marx say something like this?), in our country and at the same time limiting the amount the rich can invest.' (I am not rich, are you?)

When asked how these new tax dollars would be spent, she replied: 'We need to raise the standard of living of our poor, unemployed and minorities. For example, we have an estimated 12 million illegal immigrants in our country who need our help along with millions of unemployed minorities. Stock market windfall profits taxes could go a long way to guarantee these people the standard of living they would like to have as 'Americans'.'

(Read that quote again and again and let it sink in.) 'Lower your retirement, give�it to others who have not worked as you have for it'...

Send it on to your friends. I just did!! This lady is out of her mind and she is the speaker of the house!

As far as I can tell, this is an unsubstantiated rumor.

This is BS

Get a source before you post. It’s been shown to be false on many websites.

Pelosi, like Obama, is a marxist ideolog and now they have the power to implement their marxist plans and "change" for America...and they are doing so.

We have to work hard for an initial turnaround in 2010 to limit the damage these people do, and then a complete turnaround in 2012 to ride them out of town on a rail.

THE AUDACITY OF TRUTH ABOUT BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA

NOW WE KNOW WHAT A COMMUNITY ORGANIZER DOES

OBAMA, THE STOCK MARKET, AND ENERGY

BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA IN HIS OWN WORDS

THE AUDACITY OF TRUTH ABOUT BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA'S UPBRINGING

IT'S TIME FOR A RETURN TO THE OLD SCHOOL

Usually, I’d make the standard quip about being in her “inner sanctum” with all sorts of Vlad the Impaler inferences and other such nonsense. But I’m too tired, and the insanity of this womans actual words and deeds, makes it too hard to top.

The woman needs to go. I think she’s overdue for a syche eval.

Aren’t posts other than vanities supposed to be sourced?

True or not, I believe Clinton proposed a 15% “one-time” tax on all 401k. So the precedent is there.

“Just came across this and hoping it is not true but afraid it probably is:”

It’s not....but she is a venomous, waste of skin, termagant of a woman.
