So anybody here making some changes to their portfolio because of possible higher taxes next year?
Because of lower limits on death taxes, I know of one man who is distributing more of his estate this year than he originally planned. And I know a couple others who are choosing to claim capital gains this quarter rather than pay the expected higher taxes next year.
So we might get an unintended consequences effect here. The tax receipts could be larger this quarter than next when the higher tax rates actually arrive.

We all know we're not going over the cliff yet. The sky won't fall and the cities won't burn so we may as well just stick our fingers in our eyes and close our eyes and worry about this down the road... like Greece did. We still have lots of ink in the presses and our "rich" haven't been tapped out yet. Pour yourselves a tall one and continue living in the Matrix... ignorance is bliss.
The left is angry because they are now being judged by the content of their character and not by the color of their skin.
I have been a very good boy this year. I paid all of my taxes, donated 15% of my income to charity, volunteered at multiple events benefiting the poor, and apologize to the Wundermutt for yelling after every Broncos game...
Assuming that the end of the world doesn't happen on the 21st of December 2012, it would be awesome to find this single present under my Christmas tree!

P.S. - When you come down the chimney this year could you give a brother a little warning? Nothing elaborate, just announce yourself by name. I don't want the Wundermutt to tear you up. Besides, .45 caliber and .20 gauge holes won't look good on you.
I can explain it to you but I can't understand it for you.

If you want to be, press one. If you want not to be, press 2
Republicans are red, democrats are blue, neither of them, gives a flip about you.
Didn't the Denver Post have an article on gold panning this weekend. Might be a good way to dodge taxes...unless the IRS makes the assayer report your finds.

Best way is to barter... maybe WHEN the economy really does crash, Denver can be the firt "Barter Town" and we can turn the stadium into Thunderdome to settle our differences.
