"Also the Bush tax cuts for the rich sock it to charities and actually DISCOURAGE creation of jobs because if the government isn't giving you a 50% discount for spending why bother? Just put it in a hedge fund."

Good, I can't wait to see all those fat baby boomers lose their cushy non-profit jobs. If you're going to donate to charity, donate it to someone you know in need.

And thank God for hedge funds (+4% last year on average)! I have no pity for the morons who got sandbagged by the mutual fund happy-talk complex.

>>My friend, I have been rich and "poor", done my taxes in different years from $25,000 - $400,000 and guess what? I paid about the same percentage at both ends, thanks to the many write-offs allowed the wealthy when you invest, create jobs and spend your money. Lowering taxes on the rich is just a gift to them now. They dont need it and many dont want it. They already do just fine and dont need help.
When you're a middle-class wager-earner they just take it out of your paycheck upfront and you're lucky if you get anything back. 50% of tax-payers under Bush will get about $100 back, 25% will get about $1000 and the top 1% will get $100,000 or much more. Bill Gates will get tens of millions.

Yeah, I have done some homework on this. And experienced it at both ends. In Europe tax rates for the rich are as high as 90%. The rich have it easy here.

Also the Bush tax cuts for the rich sock it to charities and actually DISCOURAGE creation of jobs because if the government isn't giving you a 50% discount for spending why bother? Just put it in a hedge fund>>

Once again, don't take my word for it. But do your own research. Apparently you have bought into the fraud and have, at least until now, been unwilling to read the code to understand how we've been deceived and lied to all these years.

Buy the video "Theft By Deception" over at www.theftbydeception.com. And if you don't want to spend the $15 dollars just post a request to my email address and I will be sure to ship a copy off to you.
