Alright, so lets do another Bush term.


When you can't find a job, living out on your ass, and your parents are broke because of health problems, then you'll be wishing that monkey got in.

Enjoy your RFID and 6 bucks a gallon gas.

actually obama's tax plan closely resembles bush's. funny right?

anyways, obama wants to tax anyone (aka a family or business) jointly making 250,000 or more. this means:

1) it will slow economic growth
2) it will increase unemployment
3) you will still be paying that tax in the long run--customers pay taxes, not businesses, they just collect taxes for the government.

(check out how markets are reacting already: http://www.nypost.com/seven/10132008/postopinion/opedcolumnists/an_obama_panic__133374.htm )

also, he wants to tax the rich more, who are already paying a great % more than the rest. some people pay NO taxes. how is this fair?

please remember we are a global marketplace. you might not have a higher education than highschool, but i'm sure you've heard of outsourcing, a response to globalization. well, if you tax the big businesses more they will just leave out country and set up a pseudo headquarters at a tax haven (island or country where they pay little to no taxes). this means we will be forcing business outside of the united states. that is not good for our economy, and we would receive little to no taxes from them that way.

another note: government is inefficient, unlimited resources and are not required to make a profit is a setup for disaster. ( http://mises.org/story/1471 )


last point: socialism has failed many times in history. capitalism has never failed.


p.s. when you said $6 bucks a gallon gas... i guess you don't realize that obama is against drilling for oil and wants to solely rely on foreign countries with foreign interest... this means higher prices. if we could tap into our own oil reserves we could get gas much cheaper. see how fucking rich the saudis are. it really is liquid gold.


basically by your points, you are voting for the wrong fucking person.

Corps are out sourcing and avoid taxes by having there headquarters over seas and using that an excuse for not paying taxes. Any time we send shit to China we gotta pay them tax, but when they ship to us, they dont pay shit. How the fuck is that fair?

If you outsource jobs you WILL pay more, but the tax breaks by employing more domestic people, with those tax cuts they'll be paying a hell of a lot less than they did before the Clinton administration.
