Title: [Politics/Religion] McCain speech
Post by: gleek on October 29, 2008, 08:03:21 AM
McCain is at a klan rally talking *feces* about how the democrats are thinking about tax 401-K contributions. (I'm assuming it's company-matched contributions, but whatever.) He says "This is the time we need to be encouraging more investing--not taxing it."

How will sinking more money into the stock market do ANYTHING about improving the economy?

"He (Obama) thinks taxes are too low, and I think spending is too high."

Uh, Grampy, those are not polar opposites. What is opinion on taxes specifically? Do you think taxes are too high?

Aren't 401k/403b contributions taxed upon disbursements anyway?

Yup.

Here (http://www.ireport.com/docs/DOC-126202) are some details about changes that Congress is considering.
