The Rinos and Obammy went in front of the judge, both claiming to be the adopted parent of the baby (the USA).
Since the judge did not know who the real parent was, he offered to cut the baby in half - one half for the Rinos and one half for Obammy. They decided to chop the baby because they could blame it on the judge.
It’s a good idea. Is there a chart somewhere that would show me how much we’d save if we were single?
“And just what brilliant strategy do they suggest you take to make a dazzling response to this to realize your retirement dreams?”
Very simple: VOTE REPUBLICAN!!! Romney, Republican House, Republican Senate.
I intend to but if you think things are just as simple as that to rescue the fading future for retirement savings ... well.
I understand the death tax goes from affecting those with a $10 mill. estate down to a $1 mill. estate, and the tax rate is around 43%. Can someone verify this?
n 2013, the death tax will revert to its antiquated, pre-2001 form. The applicable exclusion amount will plummet to $1,000,000, and the top marginal rate will leap twenty points to 55%. A 5% surtax will also return, to be levied on estates between $10 million and $17 million. This raises the top effective rate of the death tax to 60%.source:http://atr.org/dont-die-confiscatory-percent-death-tax-a7051
More money into sterile assets such gold, purchased with cash and unregistered, which can be passed on w/o estate tax. More underground economic activity. Of course, less government revenue.
