You're arguing apples and oranges.

Olberman, I agree has tried to become the Bill O'Reilly of the left, but comparing the NYT to FOX is not even close.

Iam not a Glen Beck fan by any means but you sound like a moron who drinks the left wing kool-aid by the jug. Communism/Marxism is a failed ideology.

Dinosaur Trader said...

A communist stock trader? Okay...

I will have to write a post about my political platform. I am far from a communist.

And again, Jon Stewart points out the hypocrisies of the left and the right. Watch his show.

You promoted Obama, correct? Obama is a Marxist. Maybe you dont mind trading 6 and a half months a year to pay much higher taxes to subsidize social engineering programes but i do. I hated fuckin bush, but i hate paying higher taxes even more.

Dinosaur Trader said...

I did promote Obama but I disagree that he is a Marxist... I think that's kind of funny, in fact.

He wants to raise the top tax level to what percent? 39.6 I think. That was the top level when Clinton was President too. Here's an article about it. How were the 90s for you? Pretty good I'm guessing. They were great for me.

Here's the thing and I guess it changes from person to person. Back in the day when I was in that top tax bracket, and as naive as this may sound, I was actually thankful to pay those taxes. I come from a middle class background and never thought I would make as much money as I did. I simply remember where I came from. And if government is working right and the taxes are going to the right places (i.e not to preemptive wars in the mideast) then I'm happy to pay them.

Too many people in this country vote with their wallet. That's very short term. You die but your kids remain. Money is very small in the grande scheme of things. What's a few percent on the TOP bracket if things are going well for the entire country? Nothing. You're safe, you're free who gives a damn about a few percent... I would rather pay 75% and have the market not tank by 50% during my term in office... that's the true tax that we've paid. That and the tax we've paid as we've undermined the morals we reportedly live by.

Oh, and how many rich shitheads do you know who cheat on their taxes? I'm sure all the rates could be lowered DRASTICALLY if rich people actually started to pay their taxes... and how about those corporations? That's another whole can of worms.

left or right, Glen Beck is indeed an gigantic douche

laughs at his own jokes, which suck too

looks like biff tannen from back to the future

I hope he dates Chris Brown and catches a "love tap"

Dinosaur Trader said...

BIFF!

I just wrote a twitter thing (which I'm so far awful at) and was trying to think who he reminded me of... and you nailed it. Biff.

DT - you got to get your facts correct - Obama is raising the tax rate to 39% and change but he wants to reduce the deductions so the rate is like 42% but wait we add the Cap and Trade in where the companies will pass the increase to the comsumers and Obama will give rebates to the poor so the rich rate goes to 45% but wait the second phase of nationalise health care and the rate goes to... and on and on until we run out of rich people. I expect my taxes to go up 15 to 20% before it is all done and I am not even in the top 10% wage earners.

And so far all the new spending equals about 3% of GDP but he has only raised or wants to raise taxes by 2% of GDP making our built in US debt even worse.

I wish I could make this stuff up.

Dinosaur Trader said...

Denarii,

My facts were right, he's raising the top rate to 39%, that other stuff you mention you brought up. Deductions, etc... you know as I mentioned earlier that many people who have real money don't end up paying anywhere close to their real tax rate. Is that fair?

As for the spending, don't forget why it's going up, and don't forget who got us here in the first place. Wouldn't it be nice to have 600 billion right now to throw into the US instead of Iraq?

You keep talking about "Remember who got us here shit" we are here, thats all that matters right now. Obama is also reducing charity deductions, is that fair? you compare the 90's which doesnt make any sense cause it was a totally diff market and much more money was made with spreads overall. You will be paying much more then 39% when all said and done. Oh and Fair? since when was life fair? and whos says whats fair, you? obama? liberals? why should people who are smart enough to make more be punished? Oh, and i come from a POOR background, now is that fair.

I've worked on Wall Street for 10 years... for a lot of dudes, it has nothing to do with smarts.

Denarii said...

I love DT - you just like avoiding the facts. Obama wants to spend in the neighborhood of 4 to 7 Iraq wars. Please look at what they are doing in the numbers. You seem to avoid them at all costs.

He is currently growing the structural budget debt with his spending. He is not raising taxes fast enough even if he end Iraq when he ends it.

I get more entertainment reading the comments than anything else - amazing how the loud mouths always post under anonymous, even when you can just make up a name.

Hey DT - I saw you on film over on Trader-X's blog. I always wondered what you looked like.
