why the wealthy wants to get rid of capital gains tax
whats wrong with elminating the capital gains tax=Romney paid 14% on his taxes in capital gains tax=nothing in income tax! he made 13,696,951; a few years ago he would have paid 3,835,146;a few yrs before that 5 million -the right wants to elminate the capital gains tax-that means you the worker have to pick up the void! think about that!!! think hard!! because they have shifted the tax burden by 40% to you in the last 10 years!
vote your pocket book=it ain't "alec" or the heritage foundation picking up the slack! its you and me while the big boys skate!
my off shore account is "0" WHATS YOURS?
