Under the economic plan proposed by Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama, people earning more than $250,000 a year would pay more in taxes while those earning less — the vast majority of American taxpayers — would receive a tax cut.
Although Republican John McCain claims that Obama would raise taxes, the independent Tax Policy Center and other groups conclude that four out of five U.S. households would receive tax cuts under Obama's proposals
READ MY LIPSTICK - Wasn't anything said against the war or Bush "unpatriotic" for years. It seems the least the rich would want to do for their country.

As I stated in another thread. The so called (Rich) already pay
most of the taxes!. In a bad economy rasing taxes on anyone is bad enough. Two thirds of those so called rich are small business owners who will now be paying higher taxes. They will need to cut expenses somewhere to offset this and that will start with labor making matters even worse. A vote for Obama/Biden by anyone making less than 250,000 is a vote for a possible trip to the unemployment line.
