Why are capital gains taxed at a lower rate than actual labor?Bullshit
There are billions of transactions a day. Each pays some broker a service fee. The government getting a percentage of each sale will not scare anyone away
They are too greedy
There are less and less brokers every day thanks to our technology. The fee is minimum and doesn't affect the bottom line. Taxes are different. Why do you think they keep capital gains lower than other taxes? Because they want people to be attracted to the market. If taxes get too high, those investors go elsewhere.
Because of the Golden Rule: He who has the gold makes the rules
Does taxing labor dissuade people from working?
Most people don't have a choice but to work. Investors have multiple choices in where they invest their money.
Yes ...I can see them bailing on the stock market because of increased fees
Same old fear mongering....if we are not nice to rich people, they will run away
It's not fear mongering. It's happened repeatedly. See all those American jobs go to China? Why did they do that, because we were so nice to them?

Has nothing to do with my point
Americans can't work for $10 a day
The stock market can withstand a tax on transactions. Just like it withstands brokerage fees
why claim you don't want deficit spending?It will only enable the government to spend more money on stupid ass senseless projects like shrimp on treadmills.
You stupid liberals will vote for it and see NONE OF IT. It will be blown on wasteful spending just like the vast majority of your taxes
Worse, the discrepancy between what they actually pay and what they are supposed to pay is huge. Republicans go with what they are supposed to pay and say they pay the most in the world. Only they don't.Why are capital gains taxed at a lower rate than actual labor?BullshitBrokerage costs are nothing compared to taxes. If you increase taxes on investments, investors look for lower taxed investments such as those overseas. In fact we have record amounts of people giving up their citizenship over taxation in this country, and those aren't even the very rich people.

Pubcrappe. Illegals don't vote, they have enough problems already. BTW, in 2007, Pew found that 84% of illegals worked, 67% paid taxes, and 35% owned homes. Nobody can actually throw them all out- that's just for the haters. It's not their fault Pubs give them an open invitation to come (no good SS/ID card).If you don't, and they have an accident, it's a disaster for the Americans. Same with health care. Pass the gd bill. Pubs just use the whole problem as a wedge issue. A-holes!!If they can't work, they'll stop coming. Only way.I just did. Pass the bill, the unworthy will be thrown out and NO MORE.
Stop fucking letting immigrants in PERIOD!!!!!!
When we have an America that is fully employed fine let in some immigrants in as needed.
But if they do come anyway, your liberal Mayors and Governors will give them drivers licenses.
If they don't have a license, they shouldn't be driving. They have no right to drive a motor vehicle in this country. Besides, Democrats give them drivers licenses so they can cheat elections easier.

That shrimp project was no joke if you looked into it, and cost basically nothing. You hater dupes think it's all waste until you find out what actually happens...why claim you don't want deficit spending?It will only enable the government to spend more money on stupid ass senseless projects like shrimp on treadmills.

Just another bs wedge issue to get the haterdupes voting. The Pubs have done nothing to stop them coming, a fence won work because they just overstay visas. PASS THE GOD DAMN BILL and stop the bs politics.Pubcrappe. Illegals don't vote, they have enough problems already.

Republicans are trying to stop them, it's just that Democrats keep promoting them to come to this country and stay.
And don't tell me they don't vote. In California, they gave them drivers licenses at the beginning of the year. Little did we know it was just a piece of a larger more dastardly plan. Now they are trying to push for motor-voter which will automatically register all those illegals to vote.
Are you stupid??Taxing the wealthy more will have little to no impact on your life or anyone around you
Did you get your job from a poor person?
If you tax away enough of the wealthy's money, what do you think they will have to cut as a result?
Yet we have had much stronger economies when the rich were being taxed more.
The more the wealthy businesses are taxed, they just pass expense onto their service/products.
Are you saying we haven't had much stronger economies when the rich were being taxed more? Because we have, it is a fact.
An income tax is unconstitutional...
And you'd pay for your military how without it?
Somehow we managed before 1916. There's a good argument that without the income tax we would have never gotten involved in WW I. It would have been financially impossible.
We didn't spend anywhere near as much on the military then.
Republicans controlled the country for eight yearsPubcrappe. Illegals don't vote, they have enough problems already.

The federal government can never assess the "strength" of an economy, their assessment is always politically conditional.Are you stupid??Taxing the wealthy more will have little to no impact on your life or anyone around you

The fact that Republicans still bring up that $10,000 shrimp experiment shows how little they know about scienceThat shrimp project was no joke if you looked into it, and cost basically nothing. You hater dupes think it's all waste until you find out what actually happens...why claim you don't want deficit spending?It will only enable the government to spend more money on stupid ass senseless projects like shrimp on treadmills.

Eisenhower taxed the wealthy at 91% and corporations at 50% and presided over the biggest economic boom time in America in the past 100 years.

Why didn't they stop them then?
If you want to consider 330 million people ticks on the ass of society, you are welcomeWe the people are rewarded...you just don't understand.
The federal government has no skin in the game, why should they be rewarded??
It is your entry fee into the game
Being looted is being rewarded? When you say "we the people" you really mean "we the ticks on the ass of society."
Investment should be taxed the same as labor
And then you have less people investing. Is that what you want?
People investing already pay brokerage costs
Doesn't deter them in the least
The 40's, 50's, 60's, and 70's, dingbat? The taxing in the 30's made THAT corrupt Pub World Depression survivable at least. Thank god the Dems got in fast this time, dupe.Are you stupid??Taxing the wealthy more will have little to no impact on your life or anyone around you

Yeah, we had a real strong economy in the 1930s.
