A Tax on Excess Wealth Creation
Obama’s Recipe for Tax Disaster
You Can’t Tax the Rich. They’ll flee the country before you can. – Thomas Sowell has another refresher course on the real world results of hiking up tax rates. Lower tax rates actually result in more money for the government because high income individuals don’t see as much need to pay people like me to help them legally avoid taxes.

More Warren Buffett hypocrisy…

From today’s episode of NewsBusted:
Obama to Propose ‘Buffett Rule’ for Millionaires – What an achievement. Warren Buffett must be so proud that his name has become synonymous with Marxism.
Paying more tax will get us nowhere very fast – From England, with the following great quote, as mentioned by Jay Nordlinger.
…the effect will be as a duck farting in thunder.

The terms of the Social Security plan are always subject to drastic changes (and not for the better) by our corrupt rulers in DC. Any private sector investment firm that made such drastic retroactive modifications to a retirement plan would be sued out of existence and its managers thrown into prison.

2010 Estate Tax Returns
Posted by taxguru on September 13, 2011
It’s an understatement to say that the entire issue of estate tax returns for people who passed away in 2010 is a confusing mess. IRS is even more confused and behind than anyone, so they just issued this news release.
Form 8939, to reflect carryover basis info, isn’t even available yet; but it’s now due to IRS by 1/17/2012 instead of the previously announced deadline of 11/15/2011.
Form 706 and its instructions were finally published last week, on 9/8/2011.
IRS Notice 2011–76 has more details.
Luckily, the estate tax for 2010 decedents only applies to estates of over $5,000,000, so it won’t affect most people, including our clients who passed away last year.
