I normally don't lost email stuff.
President Obama's finance team is recommending a transaction tax. His plan is to sneak it in after the November election to keep it under the radar. This is a 1% tax on all transactions at any financial institution i. e. Banks, Credit Unions, etc.. Any deposit you make, or move around within your account, i. e. transfer to, will have a 1% tax charged. If your pay check or your social Security or whatever is direct deposit, 1% tax charged. If you hand carry a check in to deposit, 1% tax charged, If you take cash in to deposit, 1% tax charged. This is from the man who promised that if you make under $250,000 per year, no new taxes......really, seriously..... H. R. 4646 This bill, spells it out that everyone will pay the Government 1% of their gross income DEPOSITED IN ANY BANK OR FINANCIAL INSTITUTION. Page 9 states the House and Senate shall convene not later than November 23, 2010 and Page 11 states the vote on passage shall occur not later than December 23, 2010. SEND THIS TO EVERYONE YOU KNOW AND EVERYONE NEEDS TO CONTACT THEIR CONGRESSMAN AND SENATOR AND TELL THEM TO VOTE NO ON THIS BILL. If you don't know who your Congressman or Senator is, go to Google, type in "(your state) Congressman email address". When it comes up, click on "Complete E-mail address for Congress/House, Senate, Governors and get both e-mail and FAX info. The bill is HR-4646 introduced by US Rep Peter DeFazio D-Oregon and US Senator Tom Harkin D-Iowa. It is now in committee and will probably not be brought out until after the Nov. elections. Suggest that you pass this along and also to your state senator and representative and US Congressman and Senators. Some will say aw it's just 1%... remember once the tax is there they can raise it at will. http://www.standard.net/node/44797 Posted Via AR15.Com Mobile |

I did a bit of research. It was introduced in Feburary and has sat in committee ever since. Also, it does not apply to financial institutions, but instead imposes a 1% tax on any transaction except the purchase or sale of stock. http://thehill.com/opinion/columnists/lanny-davis/107351-a-debt-free-america-yes-its-possible snip... "One idea for raising taxes to pay down the debt is the bill introduced this February by Rep. Chaka Fattah (D-Pa.). His "Debt Free America Act” (H.R. 4646) would impose a 1 percent "transaction tax” on every financial transaction — whether paid by cash, credit card or any form of financial transfer, the only exception being transactions involving the purchase or sale of stock. Theoretically, everyone would pay one cent on the dollar for every such transaction in America every day — whether $3 million on a $300 million business acquisition, $300 on the purchase of a $30,000 car, or $5 on a $500 ATM withdrawal. " snip... I don't see this passing.... |

The pricks in the congress now pass bill so they can see what is in them. Fucking commie assholes. |
