I agree that we, as Americans, should be willing to pay the costs of maintaining our nation’s health, safety, and stability. However, the Congress best get busy eliminating tax shelters and loopholes for wealthy corporations and individuals, of which there are an obscene abundance. And, no, I’m not referring to people making $250K/year as “wealthy”, for any reactionaries in the peanut gallery….

I’m perfectly willing to pay taxes on my entire income when corporations and the rich begin to do the same. Hell, at this point, I’d be happy if companies like Exxon and GE would pay corporate income tax on SOME of their profits.[/quote]

True but can we also at least raise taxes on the poor? Dammit what Jesus doesn’t realize is that it’s the Meek who are the problem.

My sister has never really made much scratch, I used to do her taxes for her. I swear with EIC and everything else she was actually taking monies out of the system. Of course I don’t begrudge her that money, but that has to be a massive strain on the budget.

Nor-LA-SD-GUY2 let me ask this, and I thought I asked it once but might have forgotten.

Let’s say I am going to purchase a house and I have a very stable job expected to last another 10 years (hypothetical for sure). Furthermore I need to extract some cash from 401k to cover some of costs. Let’s say my 401k is 100k and use a 50k loan to cover costs. Paying the loan back of course is after tax, and without getting into Amort tables, let’s just say I am paying back 50k at 4.5% for 6 years.

Technically I’ve borrowed money, that I must pay back with interest. A catastrophic firing, or losing my job in some way where I’d have to either pay it all back or take penalties, could happen but let’s say it doesn’t and in 6 years I’ve paid the loan off.

If the Fed is indeed basically an arm of the government as NON-conspiracy theorists would suggest, is the US Debt the same thing as the 401k loan? By the way too bad they couldn’t just kill Sallie Mae as a company and burn up the debt. Imagine the $$$ floating in the economy. Obviously there are actual investors involved in SM and you can’t do that, but damn I can dream once in a while.

Tuition in most of the Florida publics about 5k/year. Kid will get some bright futures money knocking that down some more. Then I will recommend he go for JUCO baseball (more than double the number scholarships than NCAA) to pay roughly nothing for two years. I am dead broke and this is about all I can swing, and there is no sense my kid having the noose I have.

I’ve been with USAA since about 2000, and finally got approved a few months back to do the mobile deposit. Like Schwab I don’t have any kind of local B&M bank. I get reimbursed up to $1.50 per ATM withdrawal, and it used to be that covered the full expense, but these days you have to watch.
