They are already sucking the savers dry.

No interest at the bank.

So people take more risk and buy dividend paying stocks.

So they want to tax dividends at a higher rate so they can suck the responsible retirees more dry.

Not a lot of cap gains left to pay tax on anyway but you can only take a net $3k loss a year.

They need it to pay for unfunded pensions.

The stupor committe can't even make cuts. Military included.

They want it all John...
