  RE: UN-IRS

  interesting…
  I heard something about taxing day-traders 80% on all their profits by the Canadian GOV’T
  Bat-shit crazy is what it is…

  In British Columbia, Canada,
  we are already dealing with the Carbon-tax Ponzi…
  Originally, it was touted as a means to ‘aid the poor”
  Yet, after the smoke cleared,
  and people stopped paying attention,
  (and cashed their Carbon Tax Credit teaser the BC Libs offered as a “greasing of the palm”)
  the Carbon-Tax revenues have become a trough for our
  Politi-pigs…

  Utter bullshit…

  What’s this I see on Max’s twitter about a banker being tossed out a window???

  @Giuseppe … ” Politi-Pigs”

  Good expression.
  We have had this “Eco” tax in Germany ( Green party ) since years .. didn’t change the auto-industry very much , just filled the Govts coffers with more tax.
  Same goes for the “Greenhouse” Bill in the EU .. Companies can buy and sell their vouchers .. just a joke .. will change nothing apart from certain industries moving to exploit poor countries that don’t have that regulation.

  Germany is discussing 25% VAT for 2011.
  Stock trades are now taxed ( since 1.1.2009 ) at a flat 25%.
  Just a joke … the Govt. thinks that people make profits on trading .. maybe in 10% of cases from what I’ve seen.
  BTW … the “bank” takes that Tax out of your trading account AUTOMATICALLY after EACH TRADE. Great way to reduce your trading capital !
  Good brokers ( like Consors for example ) will offset profits against losses and return subtracted taxes accordingly.
  A friend of mine was at another broker-bank, where they did NOT do this … he was totally p*ssed off, and wanted to quit completely ( which would have been good for him, as he has ONLY losses since quite a few years ).
  FWIW

  Here’s a chart of German VAT since 1968 :

  From 10% in 1968 to 19% in 2007.

  @ME .. yeah, the 60′s/70′s .. some good music.

  Doors / Yes / Deep Purple / Santana / Chaka Khan & Rufus / Joni Mitchell / Eric Clapton / Jimi Hendrix / Police

  All the commercial junk today gets on my nerves.
  Sting and Phil Collins and Joni are the few greats still surviving.

  I lived in Islington when Police played in the Hope & Anchor ‘s cellar – my local pub. Great days – Holloway Road.
  Went to Rocky Horror Show ( Theatre ) about 10 times – due to visitors always wanting to go there.
  Ah .. those were the days !

  @Youri Carma – thanks for the Palast piece. Now I finally understand why Obama had to force Larry Summers to call Stiglitz a few months back for consultation.

  I just read a Reuters piece about Capitalism, the IMF, and the World Bank being “under fire” at the UN that quoted Stiglitz:

  http://www.reuters.com/article/bondsNews/idUSN2530051720090625?sp=true

  Didn’t know that he is an adviser to Nicaragua’s foreign minister.

  @ all of the “audit the Fed” enthusiasts . . . you don’t want to miss this clip re: what Bernacke thinks of that piece of legislation:

  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rjULF_Xg6Ps

  Is he threatening future financial armageddon? Or is he just expressing that he views a Fed audit as a hostile act?

  You got me scared there for a moment cause I was reading China Retaliates instead of Reiterates Pfffffffffff ……..

  A link to an interesting look at the correlation between Iceland, Argentina, and the US: economic collapse, Central Bank insolvency:
  http://seekingalpha.com/article/109480-analyzing-the-crisis-in-iceland-can-it-happen-here

  “Now in Iceland, like in Argentina, the true breaking point came when its central bank became insolvent. The result was a complete lack of confidence in Iceland’s ability to repay; essentially, Iceland had defaulted. The result has been a run on the Icelandic krona, which has lost half its value in just a few months time.”

  How do we audit the Fed, prosecute Bernanke (and Geithner and Paulson), and not play into the globalist banker’s agenda? I like the link Mep sent: too bad we can’t dismantle the IMF and World Bank. China and the Bric countries are serving validity to the IMF by buying their bonds. It is a gruesome picture, especially when hunger strikes in the near future.
