Wall-Street Casino Owners Hold Public Wallets (Fundamentals) Hostage
Wall-Street Casino Operators got drunk......Wall-Street should stop their whining and get over their self induced mental recession. Beware of Confidence Men! Remember - Fraud is Fraud; no matter how you slice it or dice it, a pig with lipstick, is still a pig!
In Los Vegas, not unlike Wall-Street, the house is rigged to always come out on top. This is not a solution, only a sturdier yoke...a new and improved mousetrap, if you will!

Talking Points | Tax Fairness for the Middle Class
September 18, 2007
Barack Obama laid out a bold and innovative plan to reform America's tax code so that it works for the middle class. Obama's plan provides a substantial tax cut for all working Americans, homeowners, and middle class seniors.
"""Under an Obama Administration, work will be rewarded, and opportunity will be advanced for all Americans.""
Barack Obama knows that the core principle of the American economy is advancing opportunity for individual Americans. But he made it clear that America is not keeping faith with the middle class. As new wealth is being created in our new economy, wages aren't keeping pace and costs are rising.
Obama made the case that our current tax code reflects the wrong priorities.
1. It rewards wealth instead of work.
A. Special interests have achieved huge tax breaks and loopholes that shift the burden from the well-off to working people.
B. This isn't good for Main Street or Wall Street. Because as Obama said – when ordinary Americans are denied opportunity, that pain has a way of trickling up.
2. Obama would restore fairness to the tax code to strengthen the American economy.
A. First, Obama would cut taxes for all working Americans. This income tax cut would be worth up to $500 per person, and $1000 for each working family. All told, 150 million Americans will get a tax cut. Because this credit would be greater than their income tax bill, the Obama tax cut would eliminate income taxes for 10 million working Americans.
B. Second, Obama would ease the burden on the middle class by providing a universal homeowner's tax credit.
NOTE; This will immediately benefit 10 million homeowners, who will get a break of 10 percent of their mortgage interest rate. The vast majority of these will be folks who make under $50,000 per year.
C. Third, Obama will eliminate the income tax for any American retiree making less than $50,000 per year.
NOTE: This would undo a tax increase on social security benefits that went into effect in 1993, and will eliminate income taxes for about 7 million Americans. The savings generated will be roughly $1,400 each year.
D. Fourth, Obama will simplify tax filing for middle class Americans. He'll put in place a system where 40 million Americans with a job and a bank account who take the standard deduction can do their taxes in less than five minutes.
NOTE: To save people time, worry and expense, the government will simply send these Americans prefilled tax forms to verify.
Barack Obama's plan will provide $85 billion in tax cuts to Americas' workers, seniors, and homeowners. Unlike President Bush, whose fiscally irresponsible tax cuts created record deficits, Obama has a plan to pay for his tax reform plan. He will close corporate loopholes
