"""WASHINGTON (AP) -- Two of President Barack Obama's economic heavyweights said middle-class taxes might have to go up to pare budget deficits or to pay for the proposed overhaul of the nation's health care system........"""""



I can hear it now!
"but he promised to only tax the rich!"

[WiredGuy]

Is pushing healthcare reform really the best thing to do in the middle of a recession? Can't Obama do this in his next (if there's a next) term?

all boats rise with the tide of a good economy and there's more money to do things right in that environment but thats not really obama's goal. his goal is to make American's fully dependent on the government.

regardless of who you voted for, anyone that thought taxes were not going to be raised is an idiot..

It is hard to believe how easily people have been fooled by this charlatan. His radical left socialist agenda has very little popular support so I needs to try and cloak his real agenda in lofty rhetoric. Unfortunately at some point his actual polices have a price which will have to be paid by the same dupes that voted for him (along with the rest of us).

Hey the middle class should be taxed higher because they are fortunate enough to still have jobs while 15% of the country doesn't!



The government should be focusing on paving the way for small businesses, and big businesses, to start hiring again. More jobs = more tax revenue = everyone is happy. But hey, that makes way too much sense... it's much more fun to force the middle class to pay for five different reform programs, even though they already face financial uncertainty of their own.

[Sly]

not likely.

Not necessarily. Obama won over a lot of Independents and small businesses... why those people believed taxes would not go up is totally beyond me.

Of course we were all going to have higher taxes.....that's the situation we were in after the last decade of congress sucking ass!!!! No matter what party you side with, the congress on both sides of the aisle are responsible for where we are at. If everyone would realize that the lobbyists are and have been running the country and stop getting distracted by the emotional issues the powers that be use to keep us separated we might be able to do something about this mess. We should be done arguing over abortion and birth certificates so we can focus on getting the lobbyists out of our government.

Stop making sense! We're not allowed to do that around here!

The rules are:

1) hate Obama; or
2) hate the GOP

Never focus on the real issues. Just focus on how the retards or the black man is ruining your life.
