Please read the piece below and remember how often American lunacy appears over here.Taking from pensions to improve the lives of people who have no entitlement whatsoever to be in your country?
Nancy [I-adore-botox] Pelosi (Democrat, CA) wants a Windfall Tax on Retirement Income. In other words, taxing what Americans have made by investing toward retirement.
You aren't going to believe this. Madam speaker Nancy Pelosi wants to put a Windfall Tax on all stock market profits (including Retirement fund, 401K and Mutual Funds!
Alas, it is true - principally to help the 12 Million Illegal Immigrants and other unemployed Minorities!
This woman is frightening. She quotes..." We need to work toward the goal of equalizing income, (Didn't Karl Marx say something like this?), and at the same time limiting the amount the rich can invest." (I am not rich, are you?)When asked how these new tax dollars would be spent, she replied:"We need to raise the standard of living of our poor, unemployed and minorities.
For example, we have an estimated 12 million illegal immigrants in our country who need our help along with millions of unemployed minorities. Stock market windfall profits taxes could go a long way to guarantee these people the standard of living they would like to have as 'Americans'."
(Read that quote again and again and let it sink in.)
I despair!
