Yea - I may not make up funny words to songs, and make crude jokes about a former war hero...but I can read and educate myself on the economy, foreign policy, Obama's horrible voting record (almost 50% "present" votes - which is unfortunate since Obama would actually HAVE to make a decision as president), etc... Don't LISTEN to Obama - investigate him - check how his plans effect you. Seriously - I used to think he was a great candidate until I actually make myself check what he said.
New government taxes proposed on homes that are more than 2400 square feet.
New gasoline taxes (as if gas weren't high enough already)
New taxes on natural resources consumption (heating gas, water, electricity)
New taxes on retirement accounts,
and last but not least....
New taxes to pay for socialized medicine (TO THE TUNE OF A TRILLION DOLLARS) so we can receive the same level of medical care as third-world countries!!!
OBAMA Restore the inheritance tax Many families have lost businesses, farms, ranches, and homes that have been in the ir families for generations because the y could not afford the inheritance tax. Those willing the ir assets to loved ones will only lose the m to the se taxes.
OBAMA 39.6% - (How will this affect you? If you have any money invested in stock market, IRA, mutual funds, college funds, life insurance, retirement accounts, or anything that pays or reinvests dividends, you will now be paying nearly 40% of the money earned on taxes if Obama becomes president. The experts predict that 'Higher tax rates on dividends and capital gains would crash the stock market, yet do absolutely nothing to cut the deficit.')
MCCAIN 0% on home sales up to $500,000 per home (couples). McCain does not propose any change in existing home sales income tax.
OBAMA 28% on profit from ALL home sales. (How does this affect you? If you sell your home and make a profit, you will pay 28% of your gain on taxes. If you are heading toward retirement and would like to down-size your home or move into a retirement community, 28% of the money you make from your home will go to taxes. This proposal will adversely affect the elderly who are counting on the income from their homes as part of their retirement income.)
