The problem is Obama will take $1 from Joe the Plumber and maybe end up giving a few pennies to someone in need. Big government doesn't work. When Carter left the White House he left a double digit jobless rate and high inflation. Reagan cut taxes across the board and jobs crew and inflation fell, meanwhile federal tax revenues ONLY dropped 1%. Obama says he's going to return to the Clinton/Reagan tax rates but that's not true, he's going to significantly increase payroll taxes and this will double the impact of his increase in the top marginal tax rate.

I just wanted to say that a lot of people are fine with people making over $250,000 getting the tax increase, but they shouldnt be.

Why were there more jobs before Bush took over? Why were middle class people getting better raises before Bush took over? With Bush's tax cuts, came lay-offs frwwe and smaller raises. The tax cuts to the wealthy businesses and corporations wanted to capitalize on their new found wealth, so the cut back and sent more jobs overseas.
