As Vice President of these United States of America, former Halliburton CEO Dick Cheney has been forced to put al his investments into a blind trust.
is now coming out that Dick's blind trust, which still includes major shares of Halliburton and KBR, has increased more than 3000%!!!! Safe estimates from various sources say his net-worth when he leaves office will be $1.5 BILLION
That's all thanks to the war in Iraq that Dick helped create.

Well, if we can get Obama elected and he can raise the capital gains tax quickly enough, maybe the IRS can at least get a bigger portion of that $1.5 billion back.
I actually don't agree that raising the capital gains tax is the way to go, but it at least has one upside.
