No One Wants the Capital Gains Tax Raised
Well, except for Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama.
A new Rasmussen poll shows that 65% of Americans are opposed to raising the capital gains tax and only 16% (presumably those who don't own stocks) favor it. Even 50% of Democrats oppose raising the tax. I really don't get why Clinton and Obama are pushing in the other direction.
If you haven't already read my column on Obama's rationale for raising the capital gains tax to 28%, I highly recommend it.
