And, guess what?  HR 4646 pending in Congress if passed will put a 1% transaction tax on ALL financial transactions, i.e. every time a deposit or withdrawal is made in your bank account; and every stock, bond, etc. transaction in your portfolio, etc., etc.  Do a GOOGLE search on HR-4646 for details.  Scary!     How much more can we be taxed before we revolt?  My Congressman tells me HR 4646 doesn't have a chance in The House.
