This is a no brainer. Obama wants to steal your money and give it to the lazy people and McCain wants you to spend, invest and save your money.
You will need to hide your wallet if Obama wins. His socialist plans are a dead ringer for nothing but the tax and steal democrats new motto.
I highly doubt you are one of the 129,000 households who would be taxed to make up for more money to the lower classes. (including you and everyone else) The very rich are very rare, so why do you care? That rhymed.
What about the effects on our COUNTRY, wow that's a profound thought. We are in more debt now than we have ever been. When Clinton was in office he all but erased a small amount of debt, the closest any President has ever gotten to erasing it completely. Which would you rather have? A tax on people you don't even know or a Country in debt?

And how would you know?
The more you tax the rich the less they have to invest to create jobs!
Newt and the rep are what made the economy flourish in the 1990's, not Clinton. Just like today, the rep congress had the economy rolling along great until 2006 when the dems took over, now look at it, devatation everywhere.
I am not for re distribution of wealth, which is what Obama wants to do. I am for more people working more jobs or getting the skills needed to make more money so the lower class can start paying their FAIR SHARE.
I am not for the Robinhood effect. I am for the get a damn job effect.
If we cut welfare out completely look at the gazillions we would have. If we force people to get a job the more taxes are collected.
I am not for taxing successful people more. I am for the non successful people to be forced to pay more into the tax base.
The system is being abused by the low to low middle class people who wont work, wont get a skill and wont show up if they did find a job. Time to change that.
Do you really expect the top successful people to pay 80-90% of all taxes?

Obama would be better for everybody making under $150K a year that does not own individual stocks (as opposed to mutual funds and 401K). Obama will be better for me.

The economy has been bad for a lot longer than 2006. It slowly declines, you don't just wake up one morning and realize the world has gone to hell.
I actually agree with your view on welfare for the most part, I don't want to pay for people not doing anything either. I work hard for my money. I don't however think you can abolish it all together. Obama has a tool in the works that allows us to see where our money is going. I would like to see where my money went for the last 8 years. It's not to our troops because they barely have the equipment they need. We are major debt, no jobs, if we have jobs we aren't making any money, at least not enough to pay for the cost of living.
I bet you'll be all for redistribution of wealth if we keep this up for another 8yrs. You, me and the rest of the world will be poor and living on the streets. But those 129,000 rare wealthy individuals will be living large. Good thing.
Considering that a McCain administration runs the REAL risk of hyperinflation and thus absolutely destroying the currency, I would say that McCain only benefits anyone who doesn't hold US dollars or can easily depart from the green paper stuff. While I would be considered a beneficiary, I still get paid in dollars so reluctantly speaking Obama is likely better for my wallet.
