Default Re: OBAMA -- What WILL HE DO AS PRESIDENT - Questions/Answers

I did some research on taxes and found this infomation at this link. Some of the political candidates want to repeal the "Bush" tax cuts and "increase the taxes for the rich only" See where you fall in this table and determine if you fall into the "rich" who will have there taxes increased with the repeal of the tax cut. There are also other sources that support this same data and these are averages for those earnings.
