Puck you Britain! We left for a reason.
....Robin Hood fought against high taxes....
I feel like the most vulnerable in society with these knuckleheads at the helm.
Why does America continue to associate with countries who would be all too happy to implement a one world government? We need to dismantle the United Nations ASAP, and try its representatives from Socialist and Islamist hellholes as war criminals.
Hey G20 snapper-heads... Here is a news flash for you: it is taxes, socialism, and big government attempts to "manage" economies that are in fact causing the economic crisis and resultant job losses. Reduce taxes, reduce government meddling and regulation and the world economy will take off again.
reducing the unacceptably high rate of job loss,
Would triple the job loss...
I’m not opposed to the idea of a tax on international financial transactions, so much as I am opposed to allowing the UN to collect taxes on anything, period.
The only accountability the UN has is to its dependency on member state contributions. Allowing them an independent source of income would the greatest disaster that mankind has ever seen.
(And no, that’s not hyperbole.)
So are they going to send the money collected to CA?
Sure, that’ll work. Taking employers’ money away from them always results in more jobs being created, doesn’t it ?
more global taxes :
Raising $100 billion a year of climate finance by 2020 is challenging, but possible through mechanisms including carbon markets, domestic carbon taxes and a variety of international transportation taxes, a United Nations advisory group said in a report Friday.
Earlier this year, the UN’s Ban established the panel, which includes U.S. National Economic Council Director Larry Summers, billionaire financier George Soros and Deutsche Bank vice-chairman Caio Koch-Weser.
The financing will be used to support mitigation and adaptation efforts in developing countries—in particular, for the poorest and most vulnerable communities.(Excerpt) Read more at online.wsj.com ...———$100B/Yr Climate Finance Challenging, But Possible (global taxes!) - UN Panel (Soros), WSJ ^ | Nov. 5, 2010 | Selina Williams http://online.wsj.com/article/BT-CO-20101105-711365.html

I agree. It’s now up to the richest nation on earth China to take up the slack. Let’s see how they like it.
In principle its a good idea. The fact is, the deficit has to be paid off, because the only alternatives are hyperinflation and/or bankruptcy. Its as simple as that.
However, would the government repeal the tax as soon as the deficit was paid before revising the monetary system to go back on a new gold standard? I suspect not...

Umm, NO, not only NO but HEL1 NO !
A ‘Tax-Cut Denier’: mostly Democrats and their constituents who will not recognize that no matter what the tax rate, the Government will only collect an average of about 18% of the GDP,
thus, low tax rates will generate more jobs than high tax rates.-
Your usual Leftist NGOs seeking to capture money transfers offshore to “spread the wealth around.”
They are transparent, aren’t they now?
....won’t fund the global warming crowd anymore....let’s tax em.
Welcome to another step to one world government. One world currency. One world under the antichrist. If nonbelievers cannot see this, I suggest you read the books of Daniel and Revelation. These times are clearly spoken about. If you do not have any faith in Christ, this might be a good time to start investigating one. We are living in the end times. We are clearly in those days. Will it be today, next week or year(s) before the Lord comes back, only the Father knows. But we are getting there.
Didn’t congress float a similar bill earlier this bill or is it included in the finreg law?
I remember hearing something about a 1% tax on all transactions.
