Obama's first proposal raised taxes on those earning as low as $42,000 per yr. As with all other issues, he switched the plan after perceiving a negative backlash, and now claims he'll raise taxes on only those earning $250,000. It's a crock--there's no way he can afford gov run healthcare and all his other socialist programs by taxing only a narrow segment of the US population. No doubt Obama would revert to his original agenda if he were ever given the chance to do so.

Obama's numbers do not add up. We know that he plans huge new government growth and expenditures, and if people would realize that his campaign states that he is only going to tax a very small percentage of taxpayers, they will realize that he of course is going to tax them too, and in many different ways. Posters would rather post about stupid issues than actually care and post about the facts. I know it is for most just a way they want to live by arguing all day about absolutely nothing, but the posters do reflect the ignorance in our country today by not paying attention to the details and are irresponsible as voters.
