Just think how much things have changed under Obama. You should be afraid. The possibilities are endless and I dont see them showing any restraint.
Now you really are starting to sound like a Rush Limbaugh or Hannity.

Japanese made cars are already taxed along with just about everything else imported into this country.
Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States
If you have issue with that concept, you'll have to travel back 250 years to take it up with those Commie-colonist bastards.

"taxes on investing in securities outside of the US?"
Gonna have to go back in time again on this issue as well and take it up with the Republican's hero, Ronald Reagan for getting the ball rolling on this concept.

I hope they further tax offshore investments. Let's keep the money in *this* country so that it provides jobs for the people in *this* country.
