Now that the election is just a few weeks away.... We are getting really nervous!!
Why?? The back ward's thinking of the liberals on the economy and taxes!!
What gives? I don't get it! Of course a lot of my middle income families like this idea of making the people who make more than $250grand pay more taxes!! It isn't going to affect their incomes!
It makes more sense to cut taxes across the board... OB*** wants to keep jobs from going to China??? Hello! Then don't tax the s**t out of big business so they HAVE to move their companies for cheaper labor! Instead he wants to tax them more. So I have no idea how the heck he is going to get all those companies back.
Here is how this directly affects my family! WE are self business owners! Small business! Our business makes just right around $250grand a year! That is NOT what we get to bring home for our own personal use! We have overhead! paying rent, bills, business loans, employees, maintenance, et c.!!! We paid almost $20,000 in taxes last year!! Let me repeat that $20,000!!!! That was after we filed we had to come up with that amount and pay! Not what they took out all year!
I heard some "bob" guy on American Newsroom this morning say that people in this income bracket could "afford" to pay a little more in taxes!! Why doesn't he come on over to my house and lets talk about how that tax affects my Personal income. The more we have to pay the less I get to bring home that year.....in turn affecting the economy! I have to pinch pennies for groceries, clothes and for all the necessities. I buy less gas and try not to drive anywhere! Plus my mortgage went up an extra $200 a month, Why? Because of TAXES!!!!!!
Our solution: either make less money and make major cutbacks, therefore affecting the economy(and not in a good way)
OR work our aces off to make up for the taxes. ( that would mean we would NEVER EVER see my husband!) Then it affects the relationships of our family! gezzzz!!''
See why I'm scared!
So, to all the liberal "thinkers" ! You have it backwards! Tax less! So that EVERYONE benefits! Tax the big business less so that you can keep your employees and they can have their jobs and feed their families! IT IS a trickle! That works! It does not make sense to have all of these people loose jobs and get "assistance"??! How does that help the economy! Fund all the programs for handouts!! Put all these people on a "fixed" income! Yea! That really works?!!!
Instead let's PUNISH those who work hard for their money! He says to share the wealth!! Yes, that doesn't mean that we should hand out to every person who "chooses" to live off of the government! I do my share of charity and contributions! We pay our tithes, give to charity, WE GIVE to those less fortunate! But not to the point where it is going to put us on the streets ...all "for working hard".
He acts like every American that makes enough money to support their family and then some! Should "share the wealth"...and that means to be taxed to death and that money goes to funding for ...I don't even need to say it!

2 PUCKERED UP HERE!:
I am nervous because I think Obama is going to win. I think there are too many people dissatisfied with the current situation that even though they would normally vote Republican, they are going to vote the Democratic ticket for the sake of "change."
I personally think he could be a charismatic leader, but I have lived in a country where people "share" everything from health care to government handouts and what you have is a people crushed by apathy and a lack of goals or desire to better themselves.
What worries me even more is the "value system" of that party. If you actually have values and stand up for them, then you are close-minded, bigoted, homophobic, etc. etc. But it is fine for them to trash someone else's way of thinking, but not for someone to challenge theirs? I don't get it. Democrats think they are so liberal and accepting in their way of thinking and in reality they are just as close-minded and judgmental if that person does not see things their way. It drives me crazy. In our country's quest to have "equality" we are breeding mediocrity and, frankly, sin.
Great post. It is very scary. I don't make anywhere near $250,000 so supposedly I should love this idea- but I don't. I think it makes absolutely NO sense at all. Why reward people for being lazy and punish those working hard?
Well said Sister as well.
