General Discussion

This might be of interest. It’s a graphical representation of McCain and Obama’s tax plans,m from the author of “freakonomics” http://freakonomics.blogs.nytimes.com/2008/09/16/competing-tax-plans-two-perspectives/#more-3083 Who gets an increase and who gets a decrease

I have to admit I’m really getting sick of the “feed the rich” mantra of the neo-com tax plans, sheesh, "trickle down’ was a falicy under Reagun, it still is today, keep it up another 4 years and the motto might change to:

Talk to any number of my friends that make less than 50K and tell them they don’t pay taxes. You’ll get the same response.
