You dont know his plan.

Factcheck.org

I was just looking at factcheck... Now Obama DID vote for a measure to take taxes back to the pre-2001 level. (which would have moved the 25% bracket back to 28%).

Now he's proposing tax cuts for those levels, which is a flip flop... but I'd rather him flip flop this way...

Here are both candidates plan...

The BIGGEST differences in the two plans, IMO, is that McCain wants to lower corporate tax $ and Obama wants to raise corporate tax $$..

The question I have... is if we increase taxes on corporations will us as Employees have less opportunities to get raises and better pay because my company will have less $$?

good research! one other question

the corporate tax also hits the small business people...that are not typically thought of when you talk of Corporate Tax. How would this effect them and their employment plans and their ability to provide good salaries and raises?

I do. As a lifelong registered Republican who has never voted for a Democratic president or senator in my life, I'm done with the uberconservative bullshit. The GOP screwed McCain, and insulted my intelligence, forcing that useless VP choice on him. Over the past many years, although I've liked the guy, I have never seen McCain as presidential material. And he still isn't.

I can't wait to cast my vote for Obama this go round.

Spoken like a true jumping bean.....or do you prefer setting yourself on fire and jumping through hoops?

Raises and better pay? Again, inflation adjusted, the only wages that have gone up in relationship to production over the last 30 years are CEO wages. Average wages adjusted for inflation have remained flat.

As far as far as tax policy, it is proven that Obama's plan IS NOT the same as McCain's. I will post the differences in a second.

You couldn't post the same in a second.

Despite our differences, much more unites us than divides us. We are fellow Americans, an association that means more to me than any other .

How can you argue with that :)

I wish someone would post the recipe for success...

I can say that vomit inducing posts do not become you.

How?

Commercials have taught us to spell Relief.....R-O-L-A-I-D-S.

I never ever said they were the same plan... and I posted both of the two plans with the link. I said IMO the biggest difference was the Corporate taxes.

If I got a 6% raise this year.. and next year my corporate company will have less $$ because they are paying more taxes.. Will I only get a 3% raise next year?

If that is the case I'd much rather have the higher raise than the $502 I'll save with Obamas tax plan.

I really have no clue how it will effect that.

Must have been the excitement that you have returned...but I digest.

Good one...thank you so much.

I return only to leave...I want one last shot at all the fucl< faces here.

If Companies suddenly decided to pass along all of those corporate tax breaks to the middle class (as supply side/trickle down econ suggests) statistics say that would be a big departure from what has happened since 1980. Do you really think that is going to happen? You seem like an intelligent person. Why would you believe this?

I run a business. If i were given a tax break i would not give my customers lower prices but I may keep my prices the same which over a period of years is in effect passing along my good fortune. This hatred of business is misplaced.

There is no hatred of business. I am a capitalist. Its just that i realize the failed experiment of Reaganomics. Supply side economics, Reaganomics or Trickle down has done nothing but erode the middle class and create enormous swirling deficit. What more evidence do you need that it doesnt work?

"I MAY keep my prices the same" isnt that the same as saying that you MAY NOT? And isnt that the problem? When given the choice, human nature tends toward greed. Not for all, but certainly for a majority. This is indisputable.

So basically greed is counteracted by heavy taxation? This is a global ecomomy now. The more you tax big business, the less incentive there is to keep jobs here. The middle class is pandered to and told how bad they have it yet the middle class lives far greater than it did 40 years ago.

nothing wrong with Reaganomics or greed, the only problem was that spending was supposed to be controlled, and that never happened.
