Robin Hood Tax: I support it - could you? Let Wallstreet and the wealthy help pay for the US recovery.

I SUPPORT THE ROBIN HOOD TAX!

This is a transaction tax (very small - less than 1%) on Wallstreet which would raise over 350 Billion Dollars.  These are the folks who crashed the economy and they should help pay for it's recovery.  This seems totally reasonable.

I also feel that Billionaires and Corporations should pay at least 20% income tax on their income.  That would still be less than I pay.  (Any taxing of wealthy or corporations less than 20% would only be allowed if they provided living wage jobs HERE IN THE US.)
