It is very important we get through this crisis and be definitively through it, but we\u2019re hoping to legislate this year.<\/p>\n<p>ROSE: Whatever you can do in terms of regulation and legislation will take place during the next three years?<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Hang on, listen.<\/p>\n<p>GEITHNER: Yes, within that period of time. Within that period of time. But, again, these things are about preventing the next boom.<\/p>\n<p>ROSE: Yeah.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Did you catch that? See, they have said that what they are about is ending the business cycle. They don\u2019t want any more recessions like this. Now, in their mind, what brought about the recession was the boom. They don\u2019t want any more booms. They don\u2019t want any more economic booms! They do not want any more economic growth! They want stagnant, zero-sum game economics. That\u2019s why they\u2019re limiting pay, that\u2019s why they\u2019re going to start putting all kinds of restrictions. There\u2019s probably going to be at some point a wealth tax proposed by this president. Let\u2019s say you\u2019re sitting out there and you\u2019re retired. And let\u2019s say that you are living off your municipal bonds, and you bought your AAA, you got good rated AAA tax-free municipal bonds, and let\u2019s say that those bonds at 4%, 5% tax-free income a year is what you\u2019re living on. <\/p>\n<p>I predict to you that the day is going to come when they\u2019re going to tax wealth, in addition to income, so they can go after really wealthy people who do not have earned income anymore, they\u2019re retired, they\u2019re living off the investment portfolio, which would be capital gains or tax-free municipal bonds or whatever, there will be a wealth tax. There\u2019s going to have to be. They\u2019re in debt, they don\u2019t have any money, and that\u2019s Obama\u2019s aim, sends his Treasury guy out there, &#8216;Our objective is to prevent the next boom.\u2019 That means no big boom in any sector that might lead to more employment. So, again, these things are about preventing the next boom. There you have it, straight from the Treasury secretary of the Obama administration. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: I have to think that Geithner blew it here.
