So.....at some point will you come back...and tell everyone you are an idiot?
An important aside: Because of the depression, government tax revenues which in 2008 were about $3T may be as little as $2T in 2009, and less after that.
The “+$250k wealthy” that the Democrats so abhor, are already making every effort to protect what is left of their wealth from the Democrats.
They will be making any number of adjustments to limit their tax exposure. Obama’s recent effort to attack the salaries and bonuses of high end businesses, have put these efforts into overdrive.
So if they cannot raise taxes on income, and get more money, or raise taxes on capital gains, and get more money, or any of the other usual tax suspects, what is left for them to do?
Simple. “WEALTH TAXES.”
That is not taxing new money, but money you already have.
If you have $10,000 in the bank, they will demand $2,000 of it. The same applies to other monies that you have already paid tax on once.
Think of it as a “windfall wealth tax.” Or “You have money and we want it, so we are going to take it.”
Does anyone seriously think they wouldn’t do this?
