Accoring to what obama told "joe the plumber" if a small bussiness earns more than $250,000.00 dollars, it will be paying more taxes.
I've instructed my accountant to stop doing bussiness once i've reached that much money earned, then i will contribute $1.00 to my favorite charity: Acorn,
so they can give this dollar to a homeless in exchange for a vote.

LOL That's not a half bad idea. Every small business should do that, and then see how much "wealth" there is to spread around! Oh yeah, in case you didn't know, that 250,000 a year is GROSS income, not NET income.

Actually, I'm not sure if you guys have heard about this yet, but the "rich income level" is no down to $150,000 according to Joe Biden. It's funny, 6 months ago it was 300k, the 250k, then 200k, and now it's 150k? I wonder what they actually consider "rich" people? He!! if they drop it again I'll be rich!!! Hot dang guys, I'm gonna be rich!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think thats is one of the most warped demographic out there. Most people want to believe they are middle class, but they arn't. If you read the press, the median house hold income in the us is around 49,000. I call BS. First, lets eliminate all the non working people on welfare and unemployment. Ya'll all remember from high school what the effect of one zero would have on your grade point average, adn how many perfect scores it takes to offset it. The middle class thats taking all the weight of the taxes is the 100-200,000 class before taxes(theres a lot more of them that you think). I'm not talking gross adjusted, or after deductions, or shown income. I'm talking actual greenbacks crossing your palm(or offshore bank acount). This class is getting taxed to death. These are your proffesionals, Doctors, Managers, Small Company Owners, The guys who wear off teh shelf suits as it were.The rich people that everyone is talking about are the 200,000 and up, these are the custom Italian suit guys. Problem is, these people show less income on their taxes than I do. They are the ones with the tax shelters, loopholes, investment incentives, tax caps( yeah, and whats up with that?). These are also the guys who are making the rules in washington, and paying the attourneys to keep it all legal. And yes, there are a whole lot more of them that you wold ever expect, and they are not paying their share, and never will. I have had to concede that I'm just po white trash

Spare that's because most business owners don't really "earn" an income. They recieve "dividends" from their corporations. That's a huge "loophole." Their paychecks are tiny, but their actual dividend income, what's leftover from the profits from their company's stock. Which, by the way, for a small business is all owned by one person. Poof big money from little paycheck.
