[quote=livinincali][quote=flu]I wonder why Obama/Democrats didn’t go after the carried interest loophole that hedge funds and private equity managers enjoy…
I wonder why Obama/Democrats didn’t listen to Warren Buffett and try to propose the “Buffett Rule”, which would have been an explicit tax on the “rich”
Instead, they want to tax the 529 plan? Really?….[/quote]
529 plan holders are a small group and don’t have lobbyists to fight for them. Easy target that will produce little uproar and of course little income.[/quote]
So basically what you are say is Obama/Democrats are bullies that like to pick on the minority of financially responsible people that went out of their way to try to save/invest in their family’s future…because they are an easy target… no different than a classroom bully that goes after the kid that is the weakest in the class…knowing that no one is really going to help them….
