A NEW "GAS TAX AND VAT TAX" COMING SOON

Get ready to pay even more for gas. If Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham, Democrat Sen. John Kerry, Independent Sen. Joe Lieberman, and “moderate” Republicans get their way an additional 15 cents per gallon will be added to the gas tax.

Market analysts predict the price of oil will continue to rise for the rest of the month. “U.S. stockpiles of crude oil fell for the first time in 11 weeks in the week ending April 9, the Energy Department reported April 14,” Newsweek reports today.

Graham, Kerry, Lieberman and the Republicans are attempting to sell the gas tax increase to Congress as a climate bill compromise. “The Senate climate bill’s sponsors also appear to want the revenue raised from the tax to fund a variety of programs that would reduce industrial emissions, including helping manufacturers reduce energy use or boost wind and solar power installations by electric utilities,” Newsweek reports.

Earlier this week it was reported that wind turbines that are considered part of Obama’s “renewable-energy initiative” will be manufactured in China. The initiative is funded in part by Obama’s $787 billion economic stimulus plan.

Congress is exploiting the widely debunked climate fraud to increases taxes on Americans.

In March, analysts predicted $3.00 per gallon gas prices in the weeks ahead. “Seasonal influences are strong this time of year and account for much of the expected increase that many analysts say will push gasoline to a nationwide average of at least $3 per gallon this spring,” the Associated Press reported on March 2.

“The higher prices come at a time when most Americans’ incomes are stagnant. Incomes edged up 0.1 percent in January, below analysts’ estimates, according to the Commerce Department,” AP added.

Additional financial burdens on the American public obviously do not concern Graham, Kerry, Lieberman and the Republicans. Congress is determined to push through punitive taxation schemes under the guise of phony climate change.

Cut Payroll and Capitial Gains Taxes To Help Stimulate The Economy

The incentive program cash for clunkers has become a popular program for new car customers across America and is helping stimulate car sales in a bad economy. Therefore, I personally believe that the best way to stimulate the overall economy in America is a cut in the payroll taxes and capital gains tax cuts. If you cut payroll taxes in half you will stimulate jobs but also, help keep existing jobs in America. The deficit early in the payroll tax cut program will jump but it will be offset by creating more jobs and more revenue for the federal government. Payroll tax cuts would not be my first choice as a stimulus measure like personal income taxes, but there is a strong case for including some tax-side measures in the stimulus package and they would probably be my first choice of tax cuts included. The key concept by Conservatives and Moderates in Congress seem to be that it is crucial to avoid spending any stimulus money on helping people in financial need, so this what you get a terrible Stimulus plan. This stimulus plan By Democrats is indefensible that a plan worth a trillion dollars of taxpayers money does not include any FICA provisions. A payroll tax holiday would be is tremendously stimulative, it puts money back in the pockets of those who are employed and it makes a new hire much cheaper for anyone considering the same as well as overall business cash flow in a way that could allow for jobs to be saved, meaning higher household income for Americans than otherwise would be the case leading to more spending. Capital Gains Tax cuts could be one of the best ways to jolt a sick economy. Capital Gains tax cuts will also, increase the revenue towards federal and state governments. This will also, put more money in the hands of investors so they can create jobs for the American people. The Democrats will argue that capital gains tax cuts only help the rich but helping the rich also, helps the average American because they create the jobs in a struggling economy. The Democrats will say that only 7-10% of all American can take advantage of capital gains tax cuts. But I want to remind Democrats if you invest in any way in the stock market with a 401k the capital gains tax cut could help your nest egg grow with new investment in the markets. Finally, a good tax incentive program always works in America so, just put money back in the hands of average Americans and they will jump start a sick economy.

Obama's Broadway Junket

The first couple spent our limited taxpayers dollars on a Broadway Junket to New York City to eat dinner and watch a Broadway play. The White House refused to say how much the trip cost the taxpayers during this difficult recession. The first couple went to the West Village for dinner and proceeded to go see Joe Turner Come and Gone at the Belasco Theater. There are plenty of shows in Washington D.C. Theater District like Arcadia, Looped, Rent and Design for Living. If the George and Laura Bush would have pulled this stunt during a deep recession the liberal media would have been outraged. The liberal media would be saying on every newscast, talk show and blog that the Bush's were out of touch with middle America and there everyday problems. Finally, the liberal media will not criticize the Obama's they will actually celebrate the trip to New York City because, they are the new "King and Queen"of America. There will be no stories about wasted dollars on MSNBC, NBC, ABC, CBS and CNN because, they are the new Soviet Style Pravda Media Organization in America. This trip is a outrage to the average tax paying American.
