So his big plan is to charge those making over 250,000 an additional $257. ???

How the fuck does that help anything?

charge those that make LESS than 250k extra $257, those that make OVER 250k will get fucked hard, will probably pay 1000s more than they do now... :2 cents:

Do you have any idea what I could do with $257 per year?

MCCain is so full of shit 9it's not even funny.

A) first of all he's running for President not King or Congress. The President doesn't enact tax laws CONGRESS does. If McCain wants to keep the Bush tax cut for the upper bracket he has to ask CONGRESS ot do it. Do you HONESTLY think a democratically controlled Congress will do that? Do you HONESTLY think a democratically controlled Congress will do ANYHTHING McCain wants without severe compromising on his part?

B) He talks about government giveaways and handouts and socialism. Didn't he vote FOR the bailout? yes. Isn't he proposing a $5000 tax CREDIT for his health care plan? YES. for those that don't know a CREDIT is not a DEDUCTION. A deduction you are just reducing your own taxes. A credit means the GOVERNMENT is giving you a check for $5000. Now where is this CREDIT money going to come from? Well he's going to TAX the HIGHEST income earners health insurance. So in other words he taking money form the wealthiest Americans and is going to REDISTRIBUTE it to everyone else. And this is different from Obama how?

He says Obama's health care plan is bad. Considering it's the SAME health plan McCain gladly accepts as being a member of the government and I find that laughable. If it's so bad why doesn't McCain get his own plan? It's not like he can't afford a private plan. his wife is worth over $100 million.

Also he says the government should stay out of healthcare. Last time I checked the money that you get from his health tax credit is coming form the GOVERNMENT. I about 100% positive the check will say "United States of America" on it somewhere. Is he seriously trying to tell us that he plans on giving everyone a $500 check and he's doesn't have any plan to make sure that check gets spent on health insurance instead of a HDTV or a vacation? If not then his "health" care plan is not only stupid, but won't solve the health care problem at all. If he does have some sort of accounting for the money then that IS in fact getting the government involved.

What I also find is that the Republican target voting base doesn't even understand how the US government works. That's why Palin can get away with spewing this crap...

Q: Brandon Garcia wants to know, ?What does the Vice President do??

PALIN: That?s something that Piper would ask me! ? [T]hey?re in charge of the U.S. Senate so if they want to they can really get in there with the senators and make a lot of good policy changes that will make life better for Brandon and his family and his classroom.

Here is the thing. They are all blowing smoke up your ass.

There is nothing either of them can do to fix shit or generate enough money to do anything. It's all a pipe dream and false promises to get them elected.

No need to worry.

Besides, if you are smart you do not pay much in taxes anyway. Let the poor uneducated people pay all the taxes.

Heres the breakdown as far as I understand it...

Obama wants to increase taxes by 3% for those making a profit of over 250,000... remember I said profit. So if someone is making 300,000 profit... 50,000 of that will be taxed at the higher level resulting in having to pay about $1500 more than they are now for that same amount. People who are making over 700,000 profit have a higher bracket and so on.

The problem is that there's a bad word for a government that supports it's people "socialest" (according to that pic).

There is no bad word for a government that borrows money until it's the poorest rich country on the planet and then creates money out of thin air that the tax payers have to pay back.

Create a governmental political word for that type of government and suddenly there'll be a new bad guy in town.

Yup its sad. Obama supporters dont even realize that he will continue to do this. We can not tax our way out of this problem. Obama will have to cut spending or print money.

They talk about how broke this country is yet they keep giving tax refund "stimulus" checks out.

How the hell is this country in an economic crisis if they keep sending families checks for a few hundred bucks each???

Look, if Obama wants to write me an affidavit saying that the extent of the increase in my tax obligations will be limited to an additional $257 a year, then I'll write him a check for $1,028 to cover his 4 years of idiocy and cast a vote for him.

But frankly, THAT has as much a chance of happening as does a "only $257/yr increase"

Also, I don't know if you noticed a little further past the claimed $257 increase:

"Under McCain, Joe the Plumber would pay $56,731 in 2011. Under Obama, Joe the Plumber would pay $58,371 in 2011. That means his tax liability would be about $1,640 lower under McCain compared to Obama in 2011."

czarina 10-23-2008 01:26 PM

I make under 200K a year, and it will take me a good while to get to 250K, so I'm not worried.
In any case, paying a few extra bucks is worth not having that pr*ck of McCain in office.

Um if you can afford $56,731 yo can afford $58,371.

Let put it another way. If his tax was $100 under McCain it would then "supposedly" increase to $102.89 under Obama. WOW $3. Big whoop. Of course this doesn't take into account that McCain would tax Joe's health insurance premiums.

It's actually a bigger gap because the rate is technically 15%. So the guy making minimum wage is paying 15% up front.
