Ready for an increase in capital gains tax?

Alan Reynolds of the CATO Institute, a libertarian think tank, says "we need to focus more on getting the tax base to grow - meaning wages and profits to grow - than on trying to punish people for earning too much money."


President Obama plans on pushing the capital gains tax rate from 15 to 20 percent.

What gets me about this is they think this only hurts the wealthy, but what about the less wealthy with money in stocks or other investments?

Apostolic is defined on AFF as:


  1. There is One God. This one God reveals Himself distinctly as Father, Son and Holy Ghost.
  2. The Son is God himself in a human form or "God manifested in the flesh" (1Tim 3:16)
  3. Every sinner must repent of their sins.
  4. That Jesus name baptism is the only biblical mode of water baptism.
  5. That the Holy Ghost is for today and is received by faith with the initial evidence of speaking in tongues.
  6. The saint will go on to strive to live a holy life, pleasing to God.
