I just received this E-mail TELL ME IT AIN'T TRUE :-[ :-[

Windfall Tax on Retirement Income

Adding a tax to your retirement is simply another way of saying to the American people, you're so darn stupid that we're going to keep doing this until we drain every cent from you. That's what the Speaker of the House is saying. Read below................

Nancy Pelosi wants a Windfall Tax on Retirement Income. In other words tax what you have made by investing toward your retirement. This woman is a nut case! You aren't going to believe this.

Madam speaker Nancy Pelosi wants to put a Windfall Tax on all stock market profits (including Retirement fund, 401K and Mutual Funds! Alas , it is true - all to help the 12 Million Illegal Immigrants and other unemployed Minorities!

This woman is frightening.
She quotes...' We need to work toward the goal of equalizing income, (didn't Marx say something like this), in our country and at the same time limiting the amount the rich can invest.' ( I am not rich, are you)

When asked how these new tax dollars would be spent, she replied:
'We need to raise the standard of living of our poor, unemployed and minorities. For example, we have an estimated 12 million illegal immigrants in our country who need our help along with millions of unemployed minorities. Stock market windfall profits taxes could go a long way to guarantee these people the standard of living they would like to have as 'Americans'.' [Read that quote again and again and let it sink in. 'Lower your retirement, give it to others who have not worked as you have for it'. ]

Send it on to your friends. I just did!! This lady is out of her mind and she is the speaker of the house!

Yeah Oldbikers; I agree with Misunderstood; this one is false.

Regarding Nancy Pelosi as a whole... well... that's another story for another day all together.

It's easy to fall prey to these emails, I get them too and they look pretty convincing. And when I do, a quick check on one of the many "urban myth" debunking websites will usually verify my suspicions.

I find this one to be pretty good: http://www.snopes.com/
