I think capital gains should be taxes (with some limited exemptions) to encourage lazy bastards to get off of their asses and actually earn income.
Of course, I also believe corporate profits should be taxed (something which KH no doubt has nightmares about) and trade should be tariffed if the other party isn't behaving equitably (as China currently isn't) or if they don't observe the same labor, environmental, or other standards. IF businesses don't like it then they can move, but due to the tariffs they likely won't be able to sell **** to the first world so they'll be forced to actually comply or go bankrupt. The choice is theirs.Try http://wordforge.net/index.php for discussion and debate.

Originally posted by Oerdin View PostCATO is one of the first right wing astroturf groups founded by the Koch brothers. Like all Koch brothers' astroturf groups it's job is to lie and spin in the popular media in order to shift public opinion towards supporting right wing policies which benefit mainly just the super rich, people like the Koch brothers. I can understand why the Kochs want public policy designed to enrich themselves but I will never understand how the dirt poor dumbasses in the trailer parks agree to back policies which are against their personal self interest.

For the record, I want more trade but I want it on a level playing field and I want cheaters punished not rewarded. Our current system rewards cheaters, punishes the honest, and that needs to stop.Try http://wordforge.net/index.php for discussion and debate.

I haven't read everything Matt Taibbi has written so I can't say. Of his works which I have read I have found them to be EXTREMELY well annotated and factually correct. You can disagree with the man's opinion but you can't pretend facts aren't real no matter how much you dislike them. I know how you wing nuts do like to ignore reality.Try http://wordforge.net/index.php for discussion and debate.
