Windfall Tax!!
Windfall Tax on Retirement Income

Adding a tax to your retirement is simply another way of saying to the American people, you're so darn stupid that we're going to keep doing this until we drain every cent from you. That's what the Speaker of the House is saying. Read below..............

Nancy Pelosi wants a Windfall Tax on Retirement Income. In other words tax what you have made by investing toward your retirement. This woman is a nut case! You aren't going to believe this.

Madam speaker Nancy Pelosi wants to put a Windfall Tax on all stock market profits (including Retirement fund, 401K and Mutual Funds! Alas , it i s true - all to help the 12 Million Illegal Immigrants and other unemployed Minorities!

This woman is frightening.
She quotes...' We need to work toward the goal of equalizing income, (didn't Marx say something like this), in our country and at the same time limiting the amount the rich can invest.' ( I am not rich, are you)

When asked how these new tax dollars would be spent, she replied:
'We need to raise the standard of living of our poor, unemployed and minorities. For example, we have an estimated 12 million illegal immigrants in our country who need our help along with millions of unemployed minorities. Stock market windfall profits taxes could go a long way to guarantee these people the standard of living they would like to have as 'Americans'.' (Read that quote again and again and let it sink in. 'Lower your retirement, give it to others who have not worked as you have for it'.

I can't stand Nancy, and she's said plenty of stupid things, but this isn't one of them. This was so left field I figured it must be out of a Comedy Channel routine.

Almost, seems it was satire by the New York Times, another words, even though she's a socialist at heart and has probably thought about it, she never said it in public.

This campaign season is going to be comical enough. War Hero versus Lawyer for the Poor. Quite a difference between these two guys. You'd almost think we have a socialist running for president.

McCain: wiki

John McCain's started two and a half years of training as a naval aviator at Pensacola. McCain was then stationed in A-1 Skyraider squadrons on the aircraft carriers USS Intrepid and USS Enterprise. He survived two airplane crashes and a collision with power lines.

He requested a combat assignment, and in December 1966 was assigned to the aircraft carrier USS Forrestal flying A-4 Skyhawks. He was almost killed in the Forrestal fire, while helping another pilot escape his plane, a bomb exploded injuring him.

October 26, 1967. He was flying his twenty-third bombing mission over North Vietnam, when his A-4E Skyhawk was shot down by a missile over Hanoi. McCain fractured both arms and a leg, and then nearly drowned, when he parachuted into Trúc Bạch Lake in Hanoi. After he regained consciousness, a crowd attacked him, crushed his shoulder with a rifle butt, and bayoneted him; he was then transported to Hanoi's main Hoa Lo Prison, nicknamed the "Hanoi Hilton".

His daddy was commander of all U.S. forces in the Vietnam theater, so they offered to let him go. But, McCain refused to go without the other prisoners.

McCain was subjected to repeated beatings and rope bindings, at the same time as he was suffering from dysentery. After four days, McCain made an anti-American propaganda "confession". He has always felt that his statement was dishonorable, but as he would later write, "I had learned what we all learned over there: Every man has his breaking point. I had reached mine." His injuries left him permanently incapable of raising his arms above his head. He subsequently received two to three beatings per week because of his continued refusal to sign additional statements.

McCain was held as a prisoner of war for five and a half years. He was released on March 14, 1973. McCain served as the Navy's liaison to the U.S. Senate, beginning in 1977. Worked and secured the super carrier program. Retired April 1, 1981, as a Captain.

1982, elected to the US House of Representatives. 1987 till now US Senate.

McCains son John Sidney IV ("Jack") is enrolled in the U.S. Naval Academy, son James has served with the Marines in Iraq, and son Doug flew jets in the Navy. Wow!
