Obama’s Curious Capital Gains Tax Epiphany

Back to blog

I agree with Larry Kudlow, but it would be nice that once in a while, Obama would actually stick to his principles, assuming he has any. High taxes are the utopian of leftist individuals who thrive on class warfare. For the rest of us, we understand that high taxes, especially on those who are rich, eventually find their way to other individuals who are not so rich (by the by, Obama clarifies that someone who is "rich" is anyone who makes over $250,000 and anyone who is middle class is anyone who makes $150,000 and less. You have to wonder: what about those schmoes who make $150,000.01 - $249,999.99?)
