Joe Walsh on MSNBC says he's for a 0 percent Capital Gains tax

DERP.

never did hear what happened there
I am sure he got away with it like all Repukes do

on the vast majority of his 'income'.

and settle somewhere in the middle?

and we settle somewhere in the middle? Much more to my liking, and compromise is a good thing, afterall.

...for retirees who live on pensions who also pay the 15%. Careful with wielding those broad brushes...

Romney is nearly a senior citizen. So your belief he should be taxed at 15% is repulsive.

I'm on record here for wanting to have a graduated captial gains rate...15% or even less for those who earn $100k a year or less...and then upwards to 20% at 250k, 25% at 500k and 30% or higher for those with 1 million or more a year in adjusted income. So under my Mittens would pay a lot more than he is right now while those on with fixed incomes wouldn't suffer...

I had this same kind of argument when I became a tax preparer back in 1986.

I argued with the partners in the CPA firm I worked with saying that money is money.

They countered back with the risk factor and I said well the sky is the limit for gains so why should they be awarded more for potentially getting more...

I'm going to be so happy to have the opportunity to vote against him this November.

Here's hoping Tammy Duckworth gets the pleasure to mop up the floor with him...

Cheers...
