Taxes on Wall Street

You all realize when the Dems talk about taxing wall street or the wealthy corporations, those *taxes* are passed on to the consumer?

So if you tax banks, your fees for doing business at the bank are going to go up, is that what we really want? Higher fees on loans, accounts and other products and services that banks offer. Oh, it may take awhile for that to happen, sure, but in the end we know who really pays for all this!

When they tax corporations, of any size, small businesses go OUT of business and large corporations start moving out of the U.S. taking needed American Jobs with them, is that what we want?

So how does that hold the irresponsible who got us into this mess, responsible and that includes Congresspeople who pressured lenders to make all these bogus loans!!

For example in the 1800s and early 1900s, traditional religious ceremonies were outlawed and it was mandatory for children to attend English speaking boarding schools where native languages and cultural traditions were forbidden. The Dawes Act of 1887 , which allotted tribal lands to individuals and resulted in an estimated total o...

Wilma Mankiller's daughters Felicia and Gina Olaya speak at their mother's funeral Saturday. TAHLEQUAH, OK -- Former Principal Chief Wilma Mankiller wrote a message four days before her death that was delivered at her memorial service by her daughter, Felicia Olaya. I think what helped my family and friends is to see that even though I don't feel well, my mind is peaceful. I know that many people around here believe in burial. I've decided that what I want is to be cremated and to have my ashes be part of the land around the spring at Mankiller Flats where I grew up, the place I love and that will always be. But I would like them to bury something after today. I would like them to bury any unkindness or anger or hurtful things I may have done. Bu...
