Most on this board probably fall in the 60% category yet they don't want that tax cut because they want to change the abortion laws. Now the republicans have been in charge for years and nothing has been accomplished reversing Roe V Wade. They know deep down that it will never happen but vote to cut their nose of any way.

Light, I oppose the Obama tax plan because it punishes success and rewards mediocrity.
NOT because it offers me a tax break.
But the thing about Obama's tax plan that is bothersome isnt just the tax plan itself. with Obama you cannot seperate the tax plan from the spending plan!
Obama proposes somewhere between 800 Billion to 1.4 Trillion in new spending, but his tax plan can only raise an additional 136 Billion dollars.
Light, I aint too bright but I got thru 3rd grade math alright, and my third grade math teacher would say that dont add up.
Then when you consider the huge new tax burden he proposes for "big" business, it becomes a real problem.
Just taking those numbers. when you consider the impact on inflation for the things I buy due to expanded taxes on "big business" it more than off sets the tax break I will get.
Think about it my brother, Neither of us purchace much of anything from "Small Business".
Our clothes, food, fun, cars, gas, electricity all come from "Big" business. Barak Obama is going to raise their taxes by huge amounts.
But they dont pay taxes. YOU and I do! If Barak Obama raises taxes on big businesses, you and I will foot that bill.
