Biden: Tax the middle-class to death I had to laugh when Joe Biden said Obama wouldn’t increase taxes on the middle class. “Only” those paying more than $250,000 or more would pay the Obama tax increase. In Taxifornia, where I live, $250,000 means you are middle-class. Even with housing prices dropping, only people making more than $120,000 a year even can afford a home. And that home is barely larger than an outhouse in Kentucky. At $250,000, you’re barely making enough to take our kids out of the crummy government schools and

On top of that governments across the world have been springing into action. Late yesterday the UK government approved a suspension of the takeover rules that en

Resolution Meeting - Fast Money Recap (9/18/08) Recap of CNBC's Fast Money, Thursday September 18. Dylan Ratigan started off the show with a discussion of the news that the Treasury is planning to use the Resolution Trust Corporation (RTC) to allow banks to take bad debt off their balance sheets. That action could save the housing market. Karen Finerman said that the concept isn't a bad idea. "I am really unclear to the specifics of this plan, but something needed to be done," she said. Pete Najarian says the reaction today was "unbelievable

Gold is Still the Refuge of Choice for Savvy Investors Oh my... Wednesday, the earth shook. It was an important day. The Dow dropped another 450 points.

Re-thinking Some Issues It seems as if the new Paulsen Plan , a deal being worked out right now in the late hours, has alleviated most of the panic in the markets. The tax-payers again are being asked to foot the bill for not only Fannie, Freddie, and AIG, but any bad paper that may still be out there. Lawmakers want to erase all of this bad debt, put it all in a clearinghouse for assets that are basically junk, and this will encourage people to invest again in financial institutions with complete confidence. I don't
Possible financial crisis fix sends stocks soaring The stock market finally found reason to rally Thursday, and Congress promised quick action as the Bush administration prepared a plan to rescue banks from the bad debt at the heart of the worst crisis on Wall Street since the Great Depression.
