Paying taxes is punishment? I always figured paying your taxes is supporting your country. You forget all the tax loop-holes that the wealthy use. Your also assuming people making over 250k per year are business owners. And show me anytime in the US when taxes have been raised that jobs were lost.but punishing those who succeed with higher taxes causes them to cut jobs.
Wow... your really grasping there aren't you. 6 out of the last 8 were Republican control. 4 out of the last 8 the republicans had Both the white house and the congress.And if you dems will pay close attention here...it's been over the past 1-2 years that our economy has taken the biggest plunges. Uhm...when was it that Darth Pelosi and the dems took over the house? Oh yeah...two years ago. And what has happened to our economy since?
This mess did not happen in 2 years. Even McCain says he warned of this happening over 2 years ago. Guess what? That was while republicans had the white house and Congress. Your just giving them dems the shaft because they inherited this crap. Although I'm not all that happy with them either.
