Since all the people who support and vote for Obama are so eager to pay more taxes, then why not just tax THEM as opposed to singling out the wealthy unfairly?
In fact.....just put a large tax on all Obama bumper stickers, T-shirts, and other Obama paraphernalia.
We already know those who want higher taxes never put their money where their mouths are and cut and extra check to the IRS.
It's only FAIR that ALL those who think it's a great idea to pay higher taxes ought to actually DO IT!
I don't think that will work. After Obama is elected, he would veto this type of legislation. So it is really a moot point.
Obama's proposed raise in taxes on the wealthy would net $86 Billion per year.
$86 Billion would run the US Government for a total of 8 days.
Some morons actually think it would lower the deficit...LOL @ the SHALLOW-MINDED!
86 Billion is a lot better than ZERO.
Ironically, despite all of your , most Obama supporters who are wealthy have welcomed the (return to the Clinton era rates) slight increase in taxes. Amazingly, wealthy conservatives have poor and middle class conservatives doing their dirty work. YOU PEOPLE are some loyal servants.
I do pay taxes, and I want to make sure everyone else pays their fair share, especially the wealthiest in our country. I fail to see the issue here.
And I suppose that you are extremely concerned that 48% of Americans pay no income taxes.
