Mr Obama wanted to extend the cuts for the middle classes but let them expire for families earning more than $250,000 (£160,000) a year.
Saying he was "very disappointed" at the vote, the president said: "It makes no sense to hold tax cuts for the middle class hostage to permanent tax cuts for the wealthiest 2 per cent of Americans."

He said he would not have signed the bill if it did not include "other extensions of relief that were also set to expire." Among other provisions, he cited the extensions of unemployment benefits and tuition tax credits, as well as new tax incentives for businesses.

I suppose it is because he is black
He has denied many times being of any African ancestory, so no he does not have that privilege.
But dividends are literally pennies per share, so to really profit from dividend stocks, one needs to be buy in VOLUME. But then, you're not a small time investor.Originally Posted by JohnnyRedStorm
Raise the dividend tax and me the small time investor gets screwed when companies stop growing their dividends. In the age of virtually 0% interest for savings accounts, I need those dividends and I need them to continue rising.

Doesn't add up.

aaahhhh no.
Please excuse him.. He has no idea that the policies that Obama wants to implement are are a complete contrast to those in Europe. UK fell back into recession due to the policies that Romney wants to put in place. It's called Austerity.. you cut basic needs for people out of the budget such as Medical services, education, housing and other programs needed to keep people from falling into poverty. While at the same time giving tax breaks to the richest Earners and expect for them to somehow create jobs and stimulate the Economy. Anyone thinking of voting for Romney just needs to take a look overseas and see all the crap that Conservative politicians put into law over there.
Bloomberg hasnt done anything to improve living conditions in nyc.... i cant list 100 things he's done to make himself money but i wont even get into that...Originally Posted by ninjahood
im old enough to remember da david dinkins days...NYC used to look like da first ninja turtles movie...grimey, gritty, etc. cool and all if your a hoodlum like myself, but it wasn't generating da billions it does during his administration.Originally Posted by Dimelo

Me and you might be the only new Yorkers that like Bloomberg
there's a reason he's on his 3rd term as mayor....ill tell you what, if a democrat takes office in NYC, taxes are gonna rise like no one's business and we're gonna go back to those times when NYC was a mess.
what put me off about obama is his utter disgust for coal, oil, and gas....i mean seriously, when we owe 40 cents of every dollar we spend to china cuz we're spending more then we have...and yet we can't access our own resources..welp, its time to change
da script...

No need to look overseas. Just look back at the great depression, what did president Herbert Hoover do? Tax breaks for the rich because "it would create more jobs." What happened? The rich got richer while the poor got poorer.Originally Posted by VoidEmperor
