Bank taxes?


Posted: Jan 16, 2010

Okay..so President Obama wants to start having taxes for the banks because he feels that these banks should pay back us taxpayers because we bailed them out.  Now...how smart is that considering that the banks are going to pass those taxes onto us and so basically taxpayers will be paying the taxes of the banks so the banks can pay the taxpayers back.  Now does that make a whole heck of a lot of sense!!!!?  Sheesh.  The only reason we bailed certain banks out anyway is because certain key members in Washington had some doings with those banks.  Talk about corruption!

I also heard that the president is padding the numbers for the jobs that he "created and/or saved."  This administration is including the people who aren't working but getting umemployment as "jobs." 

I've known for a long time that our government was corrupt but I have never seen a bigger group of liars, cheaters, and manipulators.  This administration takes corruption to a whole new level.

I am so with you! This was talked about somewhat below - too. Obama makes everything worse.

Does he ever think anything through? "First do no harm" comes to mind. He is actually stalling the recovery by these awful decisions. On the surface, what he is doing looks good, so ignorant people think he is the saviour, but in reality, he is hurting, not helping. His inexperience shows. He could never run a business. It would be bankrupt in a year. Putting taxes on these banks that will just charge the customers more to make up for it... another idiotic idea.

Some advice you might consider next time you post. Go back and review the posts you referred to below. Hello. Bankers raise their own fees. That would make them responsible for passing costs on to customers.

I have a question.  I haven't had a bank account in YEARS, because I just use a payroll card and have been quite happy with it.  I was finally deciding to save some money though, so went and opened a savings account.  I received a letter in the mail saying that my savings account had been debited $71.00 because I owed an old bill with the same bank I had gotten the savings account through.  I had a checking account with them back in 2007, but ended up closing my account ...

So it's not just minimum wage McDonald's workers, in this article it is bank tellers, rather similar to us. They need better clothes though, but then again we sometimes need equipment and access to high speed internet which eats into pay. I think years ago companies would have been ashamed to have their employees needing assistance. They try to blame this on President Ob ...

Late Payment/bank Advice Please! Sorry, Also Includes Mini-rantApr 21, 2012
Yesterday was payday and I was very excited, of course! My van payment ($242) and my personal loan payment ($95) were due on April 11th. Both of these are through my Navy Federal Credit Union account that I had since I was 16. Anyways, long story short Friday was 9 days late and as soon as I had that paycheck in my checking account they froze my account where I could not take anything out. They do that if you are 10 days late, which I was one day shy of. Technically today would have been 10 ...

So, More Taxes On The Way?Jan 28, 2013
Congress is poised to clear the final $50 billion chunk of emergency aid for Superstorm Sandy relief Monday — and in one vote, it will have used up all the new tax money President Obama won by raising rates on the wealthy in the “fiscal cliff” deal. The tax deal that Congress and Mr. Obama reached in early January cut taxes overall but let them rise on individuals making more than $250,000 a year and families with income of more than $300,000. Those increases brought the government som ...
