  • Six Ways to Cut Our Debt and Advance Obama's Agenda [View article]
    Hmm ...Interesting. I agree with the oil drilling. Solar cellsare still not efficient enough to replace the energy it takes to build and distribute them unless they last ten years problem free. I have yet to have any solar cells last that long. I skip the Gaming, for I have feeling both ways. Drugs are a problem. I think the lure of feeling better by taking some substance is greater than most humans to live through reality. The gain in taxes may not equal the loss in effectiveness in life. Who knows? Social security is not called retirement security. Why do you think that is? I can not argue with the tax going to higher incomes. I think no limit should be on that tax. The capital gains is where I find the most disagreement with most financial people. I think the capital gains under $10,000 net per year should not be taxed and can be accumulated for an individual. But I think numbers above that should be taxed at the going tax rate until goods demand exceeds supplies. Then another capital gains tax can be implemented. Capital Gains for stocks just rewards holding investments in paper. The real company will exist either way. Capital gains should be for producing what the society needs until supply exceeds demands.
