See your tax cut under Obama’s plan, and compare it to the McCain plan.

“Obama is not proposing to raise taxes for most Americans. To the contrary, he would triple the earned-income tax credit for low-wage earners, increasing work incentives at the bottom. He would cut taxes on people in the middle — indeed, he would do so more aggressively than McCain would.” [Sebatian Mallaby, Washington Post, 9/8/08]

Rea Hederman Jr., a senior policy analyst at the conservative Heritage Foundation “said the middle class would likely pay less under Mr. Obama’s plan than Mr. McCain’s.” [NY Sun, 8/15/08]

Obama’s tax calculator is “a very simple gadget that’s the most useful thing I’ve seen on any political website in a while.” [Forbes.com, 10/08]

The misinformed should read this post. If people continue to listen to the GOP’s rhetoric, they’ll be walking into a trap.

Here is the heart of what Obama is intending to do. Not will it benefit 95% of the country, that’s just the carrot to get votes.
It’s the “redistribution of wealth” ideology that says the government will take the income from those who earned it and give it to those who didn’t. Never mind the fact that those in the top few percent already pay the lions share of total tax revenue and a large percent of the middle and lower incomes don’t pay any taxes at all and those that do pay very little. This is a sham ! This is a way to buy voter loyalty so they can stack the congress and turn every liberal and anti-christian ideology into law and take away our liberties and Constitutional safeguards. Have you heard what Obama thinks of the Constitution?

Roger, hon, you need to do a little research. Every aspect of this comment is so off-base that I don’t even have the inclination to argue with you.
