Progressives Back Obama Push for Global Tax
AIM ^ | October 6, 2009 | Cliff Kincaid

While policymakers debate a few million dollars for ACORN and a few hundred billion dollars more for health care reform, those committed to one-world government are moving ahead with plans for a global tax that could extract trillions of dollars out of Americans' already depleted IRAs and stock holdings.

One can't exclude the possibility of such a tax being slipped into a health care or cap-and-trade bill that the Congress or the public could not have time to read before passage.

Bob Davis of the Wall Street Journal deserves a journalism prize for taking the time to read the recent communiqué issued by the G-20 countries meeting in Pittsburgh. He found they had assigned the International Monetary Fund (IMF) the job of studying how to implement a global tax on America and the rest of the world.

"The IMF assignment from the G-20 has been widely overlooked," Davis noted. His article ran under the headline, "IMF Mulls Global Bank Tax."

Hey, that’s a surprise.

Commies want to take money from Americans to give to others.

Taxing our IRAs and stock holdings to send to foreigners. Crazy. I think the UN has a plan to make ammo dry up also

I told you Obama will be coming after our 401k’s.

The problem is called “Career Politicians” and how they finance their campaigns.
We need throw out the old campaign laws and start over.
The new campaign law should start with “Only eligible voters can contribute to………..” along with total transparency, mandatory prison time, removal from office.

JOIN THE TAX REVOLT
STOP YOUR SPENDING
Don’t give to Washington
Don’t give it to Wall Street.
Don’t put it in the Local Bank
Take your extra cash and bury it in the “back yard”.

And above all tell your “career politicians” why you have stopped spending.
Tell Washington to stop their out of control spending.

What is driving the global taxation agenda is a Marxist view that the U.S. is exploiting the people and natural resources of the world. According to this perspective, international institutions such as the International Monetary Fund, the World Bank and even the U.N. must be restructured and provided with new financial resources to supervise and manage the redistribution of the world's wealth. The United States, being the leading capitalist state, has to pay the largest price.

This should be printed on handbills and given to every Marxism denier living in this country. You know the "oh that could never happen in the US" crowd. Lord help us..the sheep are asleep or watching the Yankee game as the country fades into myth.

This has happened before. Before the American Revolution.

Yes, the US taxpayer needs to pay more money because Robert Mugabe just doesn't have enough yet /sarc.

One thing the American people will not tolerate is paying taxes to foreign entities. This is clearly unconstitutional and if Obama signs the Copenhagen treaty he should be impeached.

There are trillions of dollars missing that the federal reserve will not disclose where it went. We may already be funding foreign entities. Large amounts sent to IMF also.

“It's easier to control people who are not financially independent”

Make no mistake. While the Wall Street Bankers were being bailed out and the Fed opened their windows to foreigners in order to hold them harmless for the ponzy scheme they invented, the FDIC was instructed to go out to main street and instruct community banks to restrict loans to local businesses. Beady eyed, bean counting accountants and auditors turned their attention to making sure their wouldn't be any small businesses left to fight the take over of our economy!!

From whence do these communists get the gall to label themselves “progressive”?
Progress is indicative of a move in a positive direction.
Since these clowns want to shed the “liberal” mantle, I suggest we refer to them as “REGRESSIVES”!!!

Yeah, but the welfare recipients won't be the actual ones voting for this. It will be the liberal elites, both Democrat and their Republican compromise lackeys. All with the aim of making the American middle class disappear or become in your words, not financially independent.
