Insight into how politicians think:
“Well, let’s see, the fact is, what we are talking about is a global transaction [tax],” she said, “something that we would do in conjunction with other G nations, whether it is G8, G20, whatever the current G number is. Because it is really a source of revenue that has really minimal impact on the transaction, but a tremendous impact on helping us meet our needs.”
Replace “needs” with “wants” and you truly understand their viewpoint.
BTW: Nancy Pelosi spoke the words above, advocating a GLOBAL transaction tax on stocks and bonds.
We REALLY need to get rid of, or strictly reduce, the 16th amendment.

Death by a thousand cuts..thanks, Nancy, you idiot. She really is as stupid as she looks. Evil, too. I would say that this country will be better off when she and her equally stupid counterpart in the senate are gone, but we can count on California voters to give us more of the same.
