Obama's ploy saying he will only raise taxes on those making over 250k is bogus. Why not extend the Bush tax cuts for everyone, better yet, why not reduce our taxes even more!!! Because this is a time for government to take OUR money, guess what, the government will also be taking money from all of us too if they tax those making over 250k.
Giving a tax break to those who really need it,,,,the hard working middle class!!! What is the incentive to work when we all pay such very high taxes? NATURALLY, A tax break to help small businesses possibly hire more employees, a tax break to buy work related equipment, expand you business, I CERTAINLY would not stick my neck out financially when the government is constantly in my pocket book TAXING me what I've earned, I just couldn't take the chance when I'm just barely paying the bills and employees the way it is.... it's almost to the point that I'm spinning my wheels busting my a$$ and not having much money to show for at the end of the week.
The current economic crisis is like a MONOPOLY game but you know someone is cheating, the game is fixed and really not worth playing.... there's hardly no money in circulation for the other players that can be used, the bank (gov.) can print their own money for their own agenda, come and take our money and our property whenever they want, give your money and property to other players,
but all of the properties and monies are limited and all owned by the government before the game even starts, and it's your turn to roll the dice..... What I personally do is flip the board over, and let all the game pieces hit the floor all over the entire room and say screw it, I'm not playing anymore, I'm done, game over, I quit. So, if the government can't help us help ourselves, then they will be getting NO (ZERO DOLLAR) tax revenue from me. Raising TAXES now would be a kick in the teeth for all of us, even those making over 250k annually will affect everyone indirectly. The 787 Billion dollar stimulus bill scam is one fine example as what they did.... screwed us. The stimulus bill is a pork barrel earmarked spending spree to legally misappropriate our money for their own need. Read some of the bill and SEE where our money is being wastefully spent that doesn't help us.... it's a scam people, a scam.
