  1. You seem to have forgot about the capitol gains and dividends tax increase that all middle class people invest in their retirements Mikey, Or do you not invest in your retirement ? Oh maybe not because you are young to worry about that shit right ? What about the raise in the death tax from 40 to 60 percent, I guess you should pay over half of your mothers estate in taxes when she has already paid taxes on her wealth. I suppose you support that tax as well. This something I have dealt with first hand, and is nothing more than the typical dems double taxation, should be the same as capitol gains tax !!! And here is another typical Democratic double taxation proposal: Under the tax increases contained in Obama's recent budget proposals, a married couple making $232,000 a year would be in a higher tax bracket than many unmarried couples making $370,000 a year. Simply by getting married, a man and woman making $170,000 each would be pushed up from their current level of 28 percent to 36 percent. But an unmarried couple making $340,000 a year ($170,000 each) would be taxed at 28 percent. And a married couple making $380,000 would be taxed at 39.6 percent -- not counting certain adjustments that bring the rate to 40.7 percent. (That's just the federal standard rate. You have to add to that state income taxes (up to 10.3 percent), and federal self-employment taxes, which many small business owners pay -- which could result in marginal rates of well over 60 percent). But he never raised taxes on the middle class, Like I said I am calling BULLSHIT... the middle class was hit the hardest of all as usual with the dems !!!! so all LLC's and S corporations most likely fall into this taxation that is directed at the middle class...ROFLMAO
  2. Once again I am shocked as I invest in real estate and individual stocks in the market for my retirement, notice that all who invest in any way now pay 10 percent more on there investments when they sell them. most middle class invest for retirement. so that in itself has raised taxes by 10 percent. not lets talk about sin taxes and other taxes raised that directly affect the middle class and, how much have they been raised under Obama, here are just few more examples Mikey: 1. A 156 percent increase in the federal excise tax on tobacco: On February 4, 2009, just sixteen days into his Administration, Obama signed into law a 156 percent increase in the federal excise tax on tobacco, a hike of 61 cents per pack. The median income of smokers is just over $36,000 per year. 2. Obamacare Individual Mandate Excise Tax (takes effect in Jan 2014): Starting in 2014, anyone not buying “qualifying” health insurance – as defined by Obama-appointed HHS bureaucrats -- must pay an income surtax according to the higher of the following: 1 Adult 2 Adults 3+ Adults 2014 1% AGI/$95 1% AGI/$190 1% AGI/$285 2015 2% AGI/$325 2% AGI/$650 2% AGI/$975 2016 + 2.5% AGI/$695 2.5% AGI/$1390 2.5% AGI/$2085 The Congressional Budget Office recently estimated that six million American families will be liable for the tax, and as Americans for Tax Reform has pointed out, 100 percent of Americans filing a tax return (140 million filers) will be forced to submit paperwork to the IRS showing they had “qualifying” health insurance for every month of the tax year. Bill: PPACA; Page: 317-337) 3. Obamacare Employer Mandate Tax (takes effect Jan. 2014): If an employer does not offer health coverage, and at least one employee qualifies for a health tax credit, the employer must pay an additional non-deductible tax of $2000 for all full-time employees. Applies to all employers with 50 or more employees. If any employee actually receives coverage through the exchange, the penalty on the employer for that employee rises to $3000. If the employer requires a waiting period to enroll in coverage of 30-60 days, there is a $400 tax per employee ($600 if the period is 60 days or longer). Bill: PPACA; Page: 345-346 Combined score of individual and employer mandate tax penalty: $65 billion/10 years 4. Obamacare Surtax on Investment Income (Tax hike of $123 billion/takes effect Jan. 2013): Creation of a new, 3.8 percent surtax on investment income earned in households making at least $250,000 ($200,000 single). This would result in the following top tax rates on investment income: Bill: Reconciliation Act; Page: 87-93 Capital Gains Dividends Other* 2011-2012 15% 15% 35% 2013+ (current law) 23.8% 43.4% 43.4% 2013+ (Obama budget) 23.8% 23.8% 43.4% *Other unearned income includes (for surtax purposes) gross income from interest, annuities, royalties, net rents, and passive income in partnerships and Subchapter-S corporations. It does not include municipal bond interest or life insurance proceeds, since those do not add to gross income. It does not include active trade or business income, fair market value sales of ownership in pass-through entities, or distributions from retirement plans. The 3.8% surtax does not apply to non-resident aliens. 5. Obamacare Excise Tax on Comprehensive Health Insurance Plans (Tax hike of $32 bil/takes effect Jan. 2018): Starting in 2018, new 40 percent excise tax on “Cadillac” health insurance plans ($10,200 single/$27,500 family). Higher threshold ($11,500 single/$29,450 family) for early retirees and high-risk professions. CPI +1 percentage point indexed. Bill: PPACA; Page: 1,941-1,956 6. Obamacare Hike in Medicare Payroll Tax (Tax hike of $86.8 bil/takes effect Jan. 2013): Current law and changes: First $200,000 ($250,000 Married) Employer/Employee All Remaining Wages Employer/Employee Current Law 1.45%/1.45% 2.9% self-employed 1.45%/1.45% 2.9% self-employed Obamacare Tax Hike 1.45%/1.45% 2.9% self-employed 1.45%/2.35% 3.8% self-employed Bill: PPACA, Reconciliation Act; Page: 2000-2003; 87-93 7. Obamacare Medicine Cabinet Tax (Tax hike of $5 bil/took effect Jan. 2011): Americans are no longer able to use health savings account (HSA), flexible spending account (FSA), or health reimbursement (HRA) pre-tax dollars to purchase non-prescription, over-the-counter medicines (except insulin). Bill: PPACA; Page: 1,957-1,959 8. Obamacare HSA Withdrawal Tax Hike (Tax hike of $1.4 bil/took effect Jan. 2011): Increases additional tax on non-medical early withdrawals from an HSA from 10 to 20 percent, disadvantaging them relative to IRAs and other tax-advantaged accounts, which remain at 10 percent. Bill: PPACA; Page: 1,959 9. Obamacare Flexible Spending Account Cap – aka “Special Needs Kids Tax” (Tax hike of $13 bil/takes effect Jan. 2013): Imposes cap on FSAs of $2500 (currently unlimited). Indexed to inflation after 2013. There is one group of FSA owners for whom this new cap will be particularly cruel and onerous: parents of special needs children. There are thousands of families with special needs children in the United States, and many of them use FSAs to pay for special needs education. Tuition rates at one leading school that teaches special needs children in Washington, D.C. (National Child Research Center) can easily exceed $14,000 per year. Under tax rules, FSA dollars can be used to pay for this type of special needs education. Bill: PPACA; Page: 2,388-2,389 10. Obamacare Tax on Medical Device Manufacturers (Tax hike of $20 bil/takes effect Jan. 2013): Medical device manufacturers 409,000 people in 12,000 plants across the country. This law imposes a new 2.3 percent excise tax on total sales, even if the respective company does not earn a profit. Exempts items retailing for <$100. Bill: PPACA; Page: 1,980-1,986 11. Obamacare "Haircut" for Medical Itemized Deduction from 7.5% to 10% of AGI (Tax hike of $15.2 bil/takes effect Jan. 2013): Currently, those facing high medical expenses are allowed a deduction for medical expenses to the extent that those expenses exceed 7.5 percent of adjusted gross income (AGI). The new provision imposes a threshold of 10 percent of AGI. Waived for 65+ taxpayers in 2013-2016 only. Bill: PPACA; Page: 1,994-1,995 12. Obamacare Tax on Indoor Tanning Services (Tax hike of $2.7 billion/took effect July 2010): New 10 percent excise tax on Americans using indoor tanning salons. Making matters worse: According to a Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration report, the Obama IRS didn’t bother to issue compliance guidelines until three quarterly filing deadlines had passed: “By the time [IRS] notices were issued, tanning excise tax returns had been due for three quarters." Bill: PPACA; Page: 2,397-2,399 13. Obamacare elimination of tax deduction for employer-provided retirement Rx drug coverage in coordination with Medicare Part D (Tax hike of $4.5 bil/takes effect Jan. 2013) Bill: PPACA; Page: 1,994 14.

Phases in gradually until 2018. Fully-imposed on firms with $50 million in profits. Bill: PPACA; Page: 1,986-1,993 18. Obamacare $500,000 Annual Executive Compensation Limit for Health Insurance Executives (Tax hike of $0.6 bil/takes effect Jan 2013). Bill: PPACA; Page: 1,995-2,000 19. Obamacare Employer Reporting of Insurance on W-2 ($min/takes effect Jan. 2012): Preamble to taxing health benefits on individual tax returns. Bill: PPACA; Page: 1,957 20. Obamacare “Black liquor” tax hike (Tax hike of $23.6 billion/took effect immediately). This is a tax increase on a type of bio-fuel. Bill: Reconciliation Act; Page: 105 21. Obamacare Codification of the “economic substance doctrine” (Tax hike of $4.5 billion/took effect immediately). This provision allows the IRS to disallow completely-legal tax deductions and other legal tax-minimizing plans just because the IRS deems that the action lacks “substance” and is merely intended to reduce taxes owed. Bill: Reconciliation Act; Page: 108-113 President Obama’s many tax hikes will send taxes as a percentage of GDP as high as 19.3 percent in 2015, before falling to 18.9 percent in 2017. From 2009 to 2017, taxes as a percentage of GDP will have risen 3.8 points, a larger tax hike than any other American president since WWII.

  3. Eagle don't make me laugh, I guess he could steel from the American people a couple trillion like Obama did to bail out the banks and auto industry, those were his only accomplishments in the his six months with a democratic congress, He would not address the failure that is the ACA, nor would address the TAX reform except to tax the fuck out of the middle class, nor would he even try to get infrastructure addressed...
  4. I think I am going to have think twice about your actual intellectual level Mike Not shit that affects the economy. Are you realty that naïve ? Do you really believe the rally in the stock market would have been sustained if Hillary was elected, no it would have stayed stagnant, just like it was. I am sure that these actions have had nothing to do with the economy. and you would give that fool Obama credit.... I think not because he and his far left administration imposed all this shit on us the American people: Trump Admin Has Rolled Back More Than 800 Obama-era Regulations I am calling bullshit on you both you fools ! The Trump administration is following through on its vow to roll back the federal government’s regulatory footprint, announcing Thursday that it had stopped more than 800 regulations proposed under the Obama administration. I have to say no, Obama had a small hand in this rally. Obama’s economy grew, at a slow rate. Obama holds the record for the first president to have an economy not reach 3% growth in his entire term. There is no question: President Donald Trump has been great for U.S. markets. Since he took office, the Nasdaq composite index has experienced an historic streak of growth, swelling from 5555.33 points on Inauguration Day to a year to date high of 6321.76. The index has dipped in the last few days, but it is still charting above 6,000 points – an all-time high – and has been since April 25. The S&P 500, the Dow Jones Industrial, and others have seen similar trends. The market phenomenon has been dubbed the “Trump Rally,” and I expect it to continue. Success on the Nasdaq is specifically important, because the Nasdaq composite is one of our best measures for investments in innovation, since it tracks nearly 3,000 mostly technology-focused firms including our nation’s five largest tech companies – Amazon (AMZN), Apple (AAPL), Facebook (FB), Alphabet (GOOG, GOOGL), and Microsoft (MSFT). I spoke with Nasdaq’s Senior Vice President and Chief Marketing Officer Jeremy Skule during a Facebook Live stream Tuesday about how the President’s agenda is going to help innovators and businesses like the ones that list on the Nasdaq lead the United States into a new era of prosperity. It’s not surprising that these leading companies – and the people who invest in them – are optimistic about the economy. Entrepreneurs and investors are not fazed by made-up scandals or liberal hysteria directed at the President. They recognize that, as I wrote in my new book Understanding Trump that was released Tuesday, President Trump is: An entrepreneur, not an academic. To him, knowledge is a tool used to accomplish a goal – it’s not valuable if it’s not useful. A builder, not a financier. Financiers sit in offices and theorize whether projects will be successful. When you build a building, it must actually stand up. Success is the only option. And a pragmatist, not an ideologue. President Trump is going to find solutions to problems based on what is successful, not what is politically popular. He has practical, not theoretical, knowledge about business. He spent his entire career producing tangible products and services that people want to buy – from large, luxurious buildings and resorts to ties to bestselling books. He understands how the economy works, and now he is working to get the government out of its way. The CEOs and shareholders at our major companies see this and have begun to bet on America again. COMMON SENSE: Surprisingly, so far in his Presidency, Donald Trump, the successful businessman, has been more successful in foreign policy than he has with his domestic agenda. There is a reason for this. Other nations worldwide, having been adversely impacted by the absence of American leadership under Obama, are anxious for our new President to restore order throughout the world, which he is doing. In the Middle East, President Trump has gained the cooperation of fifty Muslim nations to fight terror at the grassroots. In Asia, he has confronted North Korea head on, and has also eased tensions with China—no small task. Now, he is in Belgium, addressing the problems of NATO, our primary alliance in the world. At this point, 24 of our 29 partners are not keeping their commitments to spend 2% of GDP on defense, while we are increasing our indebtedness by spending nearly 4% to defend them. Instead of begging our allies to pay their fair share, like George W. Bush and Barack Obama did, Trump should demand that they pay up or leave the alliance. That will get their attention. Why should we pay for defending them, when we are in debt and they are thriving? Trump’s domestic agenda isn’t doing as well, primarily because the Progressive Democrats have forced him to remain on the defense. Led by the media, who have viciously opposed Trump and everything he wants, Trump hasn’t gained the traction he needs to move us forward. Despite this, so far this quarter, our growth rate is above 4%, something Obama never came close to achieving. You guys should take off your fucking blinders and see things for what they are. not your so called self imposing leftist views I DARE SAY NOT Independent views. that is for god damn sure........ Once again the leftist democrats have lost over 1000 seats and 14 governorships nationwide in just 6 years and you wonder why Trump is where he is and where he will stay for the next 7.5 years !!!! That is because OBAMA sucked ass and the American people said so in the election and will again in the next election. Mike you are out there with those leftist DemS in Cali you should travel to the rest of the country and you would much better understand the sentiment of the people. I suppose you believe in Sanctuary cities too ?
  5. 3 nights in row the little girl teases the boy and then leaves him with BLUE BALLS And this is what he looks like now... If a woman only knew what it does to a man.
  6. Well Eagle lets see, the economy is growing at 2.6% , and we haven't even addressed tax reform !!! Stock market is up how many % since Trump was elected 30 % can that really be true ?, and BTW so are my retirement funds Unemployment levels are holding at very sustainable levels, Have made great strides in removing the gangland MS13, and illegal border crossings are at lowest levels since I can remember. When was the last time the US congress gave up a vacation to try to get some legislation passed ? Pissed off his best friend in the world so much he is sending out of Russia 755 diplomats. Assad is scared to poison his own people. Isis is fastly become only a thought. Iran is beginning to understand that they are not the real player they thought they were since Obama gave so much power to them, We now have a great supreme court that has upheld his power to stop anyone from coming to the US if he feels they are a threat to the American people over ruling all the leftist liberal judges. This president reins over the largest republican majority of State governments in my adult life. which by the way will continue to grow, if you just ask the people instead of the mainstream media. Overall in six months of work he has done very well. I live better now than I did six months ago.
