Taxed too much?

If we cut funding for Big Bird, you can keep every control tower in the USA fully staffed. So do you want to keep Big Bird or the Air Traffic Control Towers and airline safety?

"The best time to waste money is when it belongs to someone else and the best time to save is when it is your own. When politicians spend guess whose money it is."

Walter E. Willams

When the parties are trying to cut spending and balance the budget, I find it amusing that every special interest always quotes some statistic saying well this or that program is only “2%” or the budget or 3% of the budget or 1/1000% of the Fed’s budget. If we cut funding for Big Bird, you can keep every control tower in the USA fully staffed. So do you want to keep Big Bird or Air Traffic Control and airline safety?

"It now goes to the House, where it is expected to be shot down."

Munster, you get wealthy by WORKING FOR IT..!!!

If BO had a plan to increase employment, there would be more tax payers. More tax payer’s increases revenue. If we had better employment number, Bernanke could raise interest rate a little to help the fixed income people. BO’s focus on raising taxes on the rich is a misplaced priority. It makes low-lifes feel good but does not solve the problem. Having more taxpayers solves more problems than just increasing taxes on the rich does. The libs feel good programs vs. problem solving is a lose lose game.

“Tiredofit” . . . is it too much to ask that you please refer to my login as R1KRA8 and not by some made up pet name as the union cyber thugs do.

Qualified Dividends Qualified dividends are the ordinary dividends subject to the same 0% or 15% maximum tax rate that applies to net capital gain. They should be shown in box 1b of the Form 1099-DIV you receive.

Qualified dividends are subject to the 15% rate if the regular tax rate that would apply is 25% or higher. If the regular tax rate that would apply is lower than 25%, qualified dividends are subject to the 0% rate.

To qualify for the 0% or 15% maximum rate, all of the following requirements must be met.

•The dividends must have been paid by a U.S. corporation or a qualified foreign corporation. (See Qualified foreign corporation , later.)

•The dividends are not of the type listed later under Dividends that are not qualified dividends .

•You meet the holding period Source : IRS

Never said that so you are lying. Federal income tax. Get it

1 in 5 (20%) of the 47% who pay no federal income taxes are citizens who are disabled, you know blind, cerebral palsy, a 4 year old needing a heart and lung transplant, check out letters to Autumn, and senior citizens whom spent a lifetime paying payroll taxes, and of course 37 of the largest corporations in the U.S., who pay no income taxes, and an effective corporate tax rate of 0%, fair share, corporate taxes on these 37 "citizens", were 1.16% of GDP, historic lows, wonder why so few at the top pay so much in federal income taxes, because that is where the concentration of wealth is, hence the wealth gap is growing.
