So Kerry is going to raise taxes only on the rich and certain "bad" industries. Now how much for a married couple filing jointly makes you rich? And how much will taxes be raised on those determined to be rich? I recall the alternative minimum tax began as a tax only for rich people and soon 30 million Americans will be hit by it. And regarding the special taxes you say will be raised on certain designated industries - energy, HMO, drug, and defense - how much will taxes be raised on these industries?
