Good news for the lazy, ignorant, and unproductive. Bad news for anyone who actually works to better themselves.
I refuse to be scared until after Nov. 4th. Can anyone provide links, articles, history reports that prove this spreading is what makes nations grow? Oh and just to add to the plumber story, he's been interviewed since questioning The One: http://www.youtube.com/v/BpZLMPoQ8VI&hl=en&fs=1
This really is wrong and it seems to be a bad message I believe folks like this man should not be taxed to the point of strangulation, I mean he might not be able to hire someone, or provide a decent health insurance plan. No this needs to be reconsidered, people like this should be exempt from the larger tax increase IMO.
POBOYS SAID SOMETHING THAT I AGREE WITH! *faints* McCain needs to go all out on Obama about this during the debate tonight.
[sarcasm on]oh but the great messiah will allow this guy a $3000 tax credit per full time job he creates[sarcasm off]
Exactly. Now, out of curiosity, where would YOU draw that line, the line between people that should and shouldn't receive the larger tax increase?
This guys just starting out and to hit him with a large tax increase might hurt him, I would say draw the line at 1/2 a million But still provide tax breaks to all the companies who invest in new hires, and the new hires have to be on the job at least 6 months, that way if they just hire someone just to receive the tax break, and they lay them off they could collect UE benefits. I feel that the Gov. should provide an incentive to create jobs here, so we can all benefit .
Wish more people realized this.... People instead are blinded by promises of bliss and green pastures...This happened in Cuba 48 years ago
the only problem is that if we raise taxes on the largest corporations only, we still lose jobs because those corporations have the money to move their operations off shore to tax havens like the caymen islands. if we raise taxes on the oil companies gas prices, as well as all other prices are going to go up. that is the one thing that liberals forget to think about. they want to help the middle class with a tax cut, but cutting taxes on the middle class does no good if they dont have jobs, and food prices go back through the roof, as well as energy prices.
I love it when everybody FINALLY agrees that raising taxes is a bad idea. I'm going to call my mom and tell her I love her.
I think a compromise has got to come about, so that doesn't happen, because when you tax a company they in turn pass that tax increase on to us the consumer. I just would like to know where the jobs the tax breaks were supposed to create are? Where was that money spent or invested?
Thia is the real teller here. Bush's tax cuts for the wealthy were supposed to grow the economy and create jobs. They did neither. Add to that the drunken spending of the GOP for the last 8 years and you have the crap economy we got now. The reality is with all the debt the country has stacked up revenues have to be increased, if that means that a plumber making a 1/4 million a year has to pay a few more bucks than so be it. According to the tax policy center, Obama's plan doesn't have any real increases until you get over the $600k mark (ironically about the same place McCain's plan starts the real cuts)
But, when you cut taxes, they don't pass that along. Corporations now days are too greedy. They'll enjoy having the extra money for the big shots for a bit, then they'll want to find a way to get more money. There's too much greed in the world now days for trickle down economics to work effectively.
the problem is too many college kids not making any money and people who have no Idea how things work with taxes are blinded by Obama's tax plan. Jesus I am going to be hurting bad for the next 4 years. Lets see if it wrecks our family business or not...
Exactly. It's insane for anyone to think that after Bush's administration is done that will we not have to raise taxes, much less cut them. After all the tax cuts the rich got under Bush, I'm perfectly happy to let them take the brunt of the tax increases.
