• Congress should enact a financial transaction tax
    A financial transaction tax -- as the US had until 1966, and as at least 10 European countries levy -- could raise billions of dollars to help reduce the deficit, would affect only the highest-income earners, and might help to slow the speculative fever of Wall Street.

  • Dump the Grover Norquist Anti-Tax Pledge
    The Grover Norquist Anti-Tax Pledge seems to be standing between parties attempting to negotiate a solution to the fiscal crisis our government is facing. Why in the year 2012 should it be legal for our elected officials to sign a pledge to serve any one or any thing other than their appointed duty -- to serve the wishes of the people who elected them.

  • Tax reform
    We hear so much about the "fiscal cliff," it's obvious that we need to find a way for the government to get more money so it can stop having to borrow.

  • Adopt the Warren Buffet Plan
    Friends and Fellow Americans: The looming fiscal cliff and the partisan politics at play keep compromise at bay. Resolution could come in the form of raising taxes for those earning well above the President's proposal of $250,000. Warren Buffet sets that bottom line at $500,000 to $750,000, but prefers the actual bar to be set at $1 million. His view is that the wealthiest amongst us have benefited the most and will always find ways to make money, regardless of taxes. It's time to support and adopt the wisdom and reason of Warren Buffet to resolve the fiscal cliff issue.

  • Renew Tax Exemption on Short Sales
    The tax exemption on short sales is to expire on December 31, 2012. This should be extended. Too many people are affected by short sales and cannot afford to pay taxes on balance owed of the short sale. My daughter has had an offer pending since May of this year and because the lender has been dragging their feet this sale may not be able to close before the end of the year. If this happens she would have to pay taxes on approximately $60,000. If she wasn't in a distressed situation in the first place, she wouldn't be selling on a short sale.
