And the tax man cometh...

Here's a piece of information from www.barackobama.com

 

Under the Obama Plan:

  • Middle class families will see their taxes cut – and no family making less than $250,000 will see their taxes increase. The typical middle class family will receive well over $1,000 in tax relief under the Obama plan, and will pay tax rates that are 20% lower than they faced under President Reagan. According to the Tax Policy Center, the Obama plan provides three times as much tax relief for middle class families as the McCain plan.

Straight cut and paste as of 9:38pm, October 29, 2008.

 

On the Barack Obama Half Hour Variety Hour, please allow me to quote:

 

"No family making less than $200,000 will pay higher taxes".

 

Which is it?

He’s now lowered the definition of “rich” from families making $250,000 to families making $200,000.

 

According to Joe Biden it's families making $150,000.

 

After all, paying higher taxes is patriotic.  We should all WANT to support our government and give it all our money so that they can redistribute it back to us in amounts that the government deems acceptable.  Because, you know, there’s apparently such a thing as “too much”, and the government Obama wants will make sure you don’t have “too much”.

 

"Ask not what your country can do for you, but how much your country will let you keep."
