Hedge funds get the money that should be going to investors. Did you know that the top ten hedge fund managers last year each profited over $1 Billion each? But don’t tax them because they are “job creators”.
The difference Ahab is that Peterson is then rightfully denounced by the right, while the left continues to make excuses for and give jobs to Obama’s Chicago associations—as you call them—better know as terrorists to some of us.
It’s good to remember that those ‘$1 billion each’ are taxed at the capital gains rate of 15%, minus expenses and deductions and other stuff. They are also ‘small’ businesses per the tax code.-A substantial amount of the tax savings goes back to ‘tax deduction creators’ in campaign contributions and other bribes.-All nice and legal.-
Think about that the next time Boehner defends tax breaks for ‘small’ businesses. It’s not just the Koch brothers.

90% of Wall St. money goes to the GOP.

“Yep, and Obama got more money from Wall Street than McCain in 2008”
Proving only that even Wall Street has lost confidence in the Republicans ability to fix the economy.
