    The guy wants to charge 30 percent on all capital gains. F that, if I sell my house and make 100k profit I will be damned if I am giving the government 30k.

    I am in completely agreeable with that, raising capital gains has an adverse effect on revenues.. lowering it actually encourages investment and usually brings in more tax revenue.

    Agreed. I'm honestly flabbergasted Obama is dumb enough to say he would do this, especially considering he apparently sees the fallacies of the proposed gas-tax holiday.

    Pandering rhetoric only perhaps? I don't know. Personally, after the FISA incident, I think he's a pretty big douchebag.

    Less of a douchebag than McCain, but definitely still on my **** list.
