FREE OUR GOVERNMENT OF GREED AND CORRUPTION
Tuesday, November 29, 2011
REMEMBER THE BALLOT BOX
Now corporations are people that can speak
from corporate media with unlimited money.
When The 99% of “We The People” assemble
to redress grievances they’re gassed, beaten,
robbed of their belongings, and evicted.
Too many have lost their savings, jobs and homes
and have no money with which to speak.
What is to become of us?
Stand up! Fight back! Again, and again!
Don't quit! Keep the faith! We can win!
Help the 99% revolution takeover congress!
Vote for a progressive congressional democrat!

RE: The US Nuclear Regulatory Commission request for NAS to investigate the cancer risks around NRC licensed facilities

We need to start negotiating from a position of strength not weakness
Dear Mr. Vice President: Thank you for your thoughtful, independent and robust defense of the American middle class. The following is respectfully submitted for your consideration.
----------------------------------------
The Wall Street Trading and Speculators Tax Act proposes a minuscule tax of .03% on financial transactions.That amounts to a tax of 3 cents on a $100 (.0003 x $100). The proposed tax is estimated to raise $350 billion over the next nine years. That amounts to about 39 billion dollars in tax revenue per year.
We need to start negotiating from a position of strength not weakness. After the 2012 elections the radical right wing Republican Congress may no longer exist.
Democrats should instead be proposing a 1% transaction tax that will raise 11.7 trillion dollars over 9 years or 1.3 trillion per year. That amounts to 33.3 times higher than the proposed minuscule .03% transaction tax. (.0003 x 33.333 = 1%).
A weak minuscule transaction tax system should not be instituted because it will perpetuate the greed and moral corruption of market speculators and manipulators.
A minuscule tax will definitely serve to perpetuate a system of market manipulation that will bring about financial crisis after financial crisis and eventually destroy the middle class completely.
Attempting to use the minuscule transaction tax as a revenue source does not consider the financial harm done to the middle class by wanton market speculation.
We've seen it happen! We get it! We've been there! The 99% are demonstrating in the streets throughout the United States.
Wanton financial market speculation by enormous hedge funds manipulate the markets to extract wealth from the middle class for the benefit of the 1%.
A 1% transaction tax is a win, win proposition.
Perhaps a 1% transaction tax won't stop financial market manipulation. Maybe a 1% transaction tax won't even slow down the market manipulators.
If it doesn't then a 1% transaction tax will raise 11.7 trillion dollars over 9 years or 1.3 trillion per year. That amounts to 33.3 times higher than the proposed minuscule .03% transaction tax. (.0003 x 33.333 = 1%).
Perpetuating the present system of financial market speculation can only give us more of what we got?
The proposed miniscule transfer tax, although seemingly well intentioned, seems to walk, look and quack like a right wing nut's dream.

LET'S STOP SUPPORTING MARKET MANIPULATORS
It is time to quit being nice to the financial market manipulators. They are destroying the middle class by manipulating stock and commodity markets. The Wall Street Trading and Speculators Tax Act proposes a minuscule tax of .03% on financial transactions. That amounts to a tax of 3 cents on a $100 (.0003 x $100). The proposed tax is estimated to raise $350 billion over the next nine years. That amounts to about 39 billion dollars in tax revenue per year. This minuscule tax can only serve to perpetuate a system of market manipulation that will bring about financial crisis after financial crisis and eventually destroy the middle class completely.
Let's try to stop financial market speculation now. Attempting to use the transaction tax as a revenue source does not consider the financial harm done to the middle class.
We've seen it happen! We get it! The 99% are demonstrating in the streets throughout the United States. Wanton financial market speculation by enormous hedge funds manipulate the markets to extract wealth from the middle class for the benefit of the 1%. A weak transaction tax system should not be instituted that will perpetuate the greed and moral corruption of market manipulators.
There's a popular phrase “a billion dollars here and a billion dollars there and pretty soon your talking real money”. Perhaps a 1% transaction tax won't stop financial market manipulation either. Maybe a 1% transaction tax won't even slow down the market manipulators. If it doesn't then a 1% transaction tax will raise 11.7 trillion dollars over 9 years or 1.3 trillion per year. That amounts to 33.3 times as much as the proposed minuscule .03% transaction tax. (.0003 x 33.333 = 1%)
Whose side is the Democratic Party on? Perpetuating the present system of financial market speculation can only give us more of what we got. It looks like We the People need a regime change in the Democratic Party.
