FishMan1969 Posted December 4, 2010 Report Share Posted December 4, 2010 Just wanted to address the potential two taxes that may have an impact on all of us: (it is my understanding that neither have passed yet, but still have time according to the last report).... `Subchapter C--Currency Transactions `Sec. 4475. Currency transactions. `SEC. 4475. CURRENCY TRANSACTIONS. `(a) In General- There is hereby imposed a tax on each currency transaction made by, or on behalf of, a United States person. `© Amount of Tax- `(1) IN GENERAL- The amount of the tax imposed under subsection (a) with respect to any currency transaction shall be equal to 0.005 percent of the value of the currency acquired in the transaction. THIS tax is negligible .... If you profit 100 million USD, your tax would be: $100,000,000.00 x .00005 = $5000.00 currency transaction tax or $1,000,000.00 x .00005 = 50.00 So 50.00 per million, Big deal.... If it passes, means very little to each person, but adds up amongst all daily normal transactions plus the windfall transactions of the Dinar investment. `(d) Currency Transaction- For purposes of this section-- `(1) IN GENERAL- The term `currency transaction' means-- `(A) the exchange of any currency for another currency, and `( entering into any currency derivative. Link: http://www.itulip.com/forums/showthread.php/16381-Currency-controls-on-the-way! The bank transaction fee may also be introduced as well which is 1% on all bank transactions..... (THIS IS THE BIG ONE, affecting everyone with a bank account) President Obama's finance team is recommending a transaction tax. His plan is to sneak it in after the November election to keep it under the radar. This is a 1% tax on all transactions at any financial institution i. e. Banks, Credit Unions, etc.. Any deposit you make, or move around within your account, i. e. transfer to, will have a 1% tax charged. If your pay check or your social Security or whatever is direct deposit, 1% tax charged. If you hand carry a check in to deposit, 1% tax charged, If you take cash in to deposit, 1% tax charged. This is from the man who promised that if you make under $250,000 per year, no new taxes......really, seriously..... H. R. 4646 This bill, spells it out that everyone will pay the Government 1% of their gross income DEPOSITED IN ANY BANK OR FINANCIAL INSTITUTION. Page 9 states the House and Senate shall convene not later than November 23, 2010 and Page 11 states the vote on passage shall occur not later than December 23, 2010 http://www.godlikepr....age1224454/pg6 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uncle Barkie Posted December 4, 2010 Report Share Posted December 4, 2010 To me this is just out and out double dipping , especially when it comes to payroll deposits ! They tax your income then they tax you when you deposit it ,then when you remove it ! When does it end ? Uncle Barkie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
