Let me ask you a question what money do you think I trade with? It is money that I WORKED for that has been taxed already. Right ?I mean you work or have worked right and you paid taxes on that money? Now when I make a gain I pay tax on that. Don't I ? Then money I have in the Bank that I earned by WORKING and the interest that I make on it (LOL the interest) I'm taxed on. Now you want me to pay a tax everytime I buy or sell a stock or financial instrument whether I make money on it or not. I'm a little guy I didn't cause any of the problems screwing this economy but you just want me to pay another tax ? WFT guy get smart pay more taxes so the Gov't can piss it away you can't be that lame
