[edit] Short-term capital gains

I know you liberals don't want to expose how much taxation occurs in the USA. (Liberals = 90+% of wikipedia editors.) But, Wikipedia is sort of...you know...an encyclopedia.

So, how about SPECIFICALLY STATING what the tax is on Short-term capital gains? Thanks! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.238.68.127 (talk) 22:00, 25 November 2007 (UTC)

The article in fact states the tax rate: "Short-term capital gains are taxed at a higher rate: the ordinary income tax rate."EECavazos (talk) 22:47, 25 November 2007 (UTC)

• • Short Term Cap Gain Rate: Securities held 1yr Or LESS: Taxed @ Ordinary income (Investor Tax Bracket)

[edit] Libertarian soundbite?

Under the criticism section there is a pretty gratuitous plug for the Libertarian Party. There's really no reason for it to be there, but as long as it is, I will make sure the socialist position stays there as well.

I don't really know how to make external links as the Libertarian editor did, but if someone feels they should be there, here are some American Socialist parties that could be linked to:

Democratic Socialists of America http://www.dsausa.org/dsa.html

Socialist Party USA http://www.sp-usa.org/

World Socialist Party (USA) http://www.wspus.org/ —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.108.14.52 (talk) 05:03, 17 April 2008 (UTC)
