Um, you dont pay capital gains on your primary residence if its under 250k profit.

That female reporter had something about her though; so that video was not a total waste of time.

2 year law comes into play, and its 500k for a married couple filing joint. I guarantee next year or the following, I'll be well versed in this rule.


And to B above. It's very doubtful Obama will ever raise the capitol gains tax over 20%. At that price it will discourage selling an incredible amount.

It's very low now, and from an economical standpoint, its fucking stupid. How can you finance a ridiculous war and expect to save your rich buddies money? I'm all about fiscal economics, and both mccain and obama aren't on par with my views for how the government should be financed. I strongly dislike regressive taxes, and capitol gains isn't 100% on par with theft, but defers from the fact that the money will be redistributed to other individuals, generating increased revenue for the government.

That's exactly what he complains about and is completely against. In fact it's his main running point.

that's the spirit. Anything that anyone has to offer "just sucks, dude" so don't vote

That's how democrats lose all the time. I mean, of all the black and white issues here (republican and far-off-center marxist) not one of them offers something that you can identify with ? Not immigration, foreign policy, budgets, supreme court nominations, gun laws, islamic terrorists... just .. nothin.

Dude.

There was this funny thing that happened in 92, this guy named Perot ran as a 3rd party guy and drew away Republican votes. The story ended with higher taxes and stained dresses.
