Pelosi Congress 2006 to 2008------there was no decline in the market until Pelosi's Freshman came in. Read It and Weep for folks in their retirement years beginning with age 50 to a 100. Pelosi Wants Windfall Tax on Retirement Income Adding a tax to your retirement is simply another way of saying to the American people, you're so darn stupid that we're going to keep doing this until we drain every cent from you. That's what the Speaker of the House is saying. Nancy Pelosi wants a Windfall Tax on Retirement Income. In other words tax what you have made by investing toward your retirement. This woman is a out of touch with Americans. 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 - all to help the 12 Million Illegal Immigrants and other unemployed Minorities! She quotes...'We need to work toward the goal of equalizing income, in our country and at the same time limiting the amount the rich can invest.' 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 profit taxes could go a long way to guarantee these people the standard of living they would like to have as 'Americans'. Kenneth, read that quote again and again and let it sink in. What it says is 'Lower the retirement of millions of Americans, give it to others who have not worked as they have for it'. Pelosi's approach is tax them, the retired Americans, and let them eat cake! So uncaring for our retired American people. Equalizing income------------another catch phrase for big government SOCIALISM. MJ
