Let's Talk Taxes

Let's talk taxes. The Republicans will tell you that Barack Obama is going to increase your taxes. As in "everyman's" taxes. Like...ALL TAXES. Below is a link to the Alchemytoday Obama Tax Calculator. This calculator is based on numbers supplied by the Tax Policy Institute. The TPI is a non-partisan tax think tank which analyzes tax policy and net effects thereof. Also, I'm attaching a link to the TPI Homepage. The calculator is an easy tool to determine the real tax burden Obama's tax plan would impose.

I see this as very good method to dispel the myth that Obama will increase "everyman's" taxes.

Of course, if your annual gross is over $250,00.00 you pay. Sorry about that. Just remember that the motor in that luxury sedan that you're speeding gloriously down life's highway is fueled in part by the day to day toil of the true middle class, those that will be buoyed by Obama's tax plan and those same that will keep shopping so you can keep driving.

The Republicans like to talk trash about "tax and spend" democrats. As my good friend John Hooe says, "Both parties tax and spend. It's more a matter of where they spend it." I suspect that you can fill in the blanks.

Be good in your lifetime,
