Is this the mentality we want running our country?

Unbelievable, might as well just stay where I am, lower-middle. What incentive does this give anyone to work hard? This blows! I truely feel bad for my kids the most.

I agree, let's keep the same principles and policies we've had for the last 8 years so the super rich elite 5% can get richer and send even more of our jobs overseas....sounds good to me!

Sorry, I'm gonna have to raise the flag on ya'll...

so youre telling me that if we tax the elite more, that they will just sit there and not do anything about it?? somthing tells me that they will do somthing about it. that might be firing some of their workers, raising their prices on things. ultimately socialism/marxism does not help out the little guy.

What I'm saying is look who is in power, look at who's tax plan is in place and has been for 8 years. So do we fire the coach or go for two more losing seasons? Its a no-brainer.

i like your anology but it would actually being firing the General manager to replace him with one that would actually bankrupt the team can cause them to merge into other teams in another league. but hey this is america where we all have freedoms, so we all need to go and vote for who we want while we still have more than one choice for president. i started to call all my friends comrades lately just to get used to the future.

The upper incomes have always been taxed more. It has been this way since 1913. it's just that the repubs have given the uppers more tax breaks. If this is socialism then we've been socialist for a long time.

Well said Mac. If a 3% tax increase amounts to socialism thats like comparing the little rascals to the hell's angels.
