What is stopping you from overpaying your taxes? You could donate to the government now. You would be the most patriotic person I know if you did

[LTSTUDIOS]

LAWGAL1 I should have also pointed out that since you income is UNDER the $250,000 level you would be paying LESS in taxes under Obama than you would under McCain, but since you are so upset about the Democrats you go right ahead and vote to INCREASE your taxes!!!!!!

[titletrack]

titletrack..............So my assumptions was right. you are part of the top 10%. It is quite obvious that only a top 10%, business, self interest-motivated person, and a country bumpkin will vote republican. the difference is you know why you want the republicans to win, unlike the majority of your party. they don''''t even realize that obama tax plan would aid them.

Indeed - I just really do not agree with the leftists unamerican ideas.

But perhaps you will have your day and we can relive the depression. Good times ahead...

[LTSTUDIOS]

LAWGAL1 So you make under $100,000 a year and you want to vote REPUBLICAN? Well that is fine with me as evereyone has the right to vote for whoever they like. I don''t mind telling you that I am a DEMOCRATE and in the entertainment industry. Last year I make just under a million dollars and frankly, I DON''T MIND PAYING MORE IN TAXES since I consider it only fair. Believe me I WILL NOT GO BROKE!!! In fact, the more taxes I pay the more I like it becuase the MORE MONEY I AM MAKING!!! Unlimited GREED is what is destroying our nation. Anyone who says I am NOT going to work hard to achieve my goals and make more money for my family because I would have to pay more taxes is not only nuts but completely CRAZY and undeserving to say the least. OH and by the way NO MATTER given the reality of our economic mess CREATED BY THE REPUBLICANS John McCain would have to increase taxes a LOT more than he is tellying youi so you are NOT going to win either way!!!!!

[tincup356]

What makes anyone think we have been told the truth about anything by any of them...both parties. they can''t govern, all they can do is lie and get rich selling influence.And the craziest thing is they have 80% of America thinking they can still save us by being re-elected, What a joke.people I''m sick and tired of being ripped off and not being represented by any of them from either party.I ask one question ....what has your party done for you?

[titletrack]

I KNOW THAT YOU DON''''T CARE BECAUSE YOU ARE PROBABLY PART OF THE TOP 10% AND PLAIN SELFISH AND SELF CONSUMED, BUT WHY IS OUR ECONOMY SO DOWN RIGHT NOW WHILE THE RICH IS THE RICHEST IT HAS EVER BEEN WITH THE BIGGEST TRANSFER OF WEALTH EVER (BEGINNING IN 2000)?

Good use of the caps lock. I d have many employees I care about. We pay competitive wages and offer great benefits. Now, by raising corporate taxes, capital gains taxes etc - we are going to consider taking money out of the market, less investing, raise prices to cover costs, and unfortunately cut jobs where necessary. You are right, it won''t hurt me as much as others, but I am sorry you don''t realize the macro effect.

[tincup356]

we can''t change the mistakes either party has made to get us here but we can change the idiots who made them,VOTE OUT ALL INCUMBENTS.

[jesuit12]

Thank God US is NOT part of the OECD countries. These countries get US banking since securities that have their backing receive an indirect gov''t guarantee.

[titletrack]

titletrack.............whatever amount will get us out of a deficit in a reasonable manner.

Posted by unbiased11 at 07:10 PM :

OK, since you do not have an amount handy, how about a percentage? Listen, I want to be the most patriotic person I can and am willing to pay extra taxes to do it. You do that right?

[tincup356]

I don''t know about Joe the plumber but I can tell you about me the taxpaying, lower- middle class worker.I can tell you now I don''t support either party, to do so would be insanity.neither party represents the people, their allegiance lies to those who supply the lobby dollars period.I don''t know why they don''t call themselves Mis-representatives because that describes them better.I think they should be labeled as failures and liars.these are the same people who caused the mess and will not take responsibility for it.Shame on any American voter who gives support to any incumbent or the presidential candidates from either party, a vote for any of them is a slap in the face to America.

[titletrack]

titletrack...............NO. Not true. Obama''''s taxes will lead to more tax revenue because more of the tax will come from the rich who hold 80% of all income. Obama will not become a protectionist- he will actually turn the tides around on the world''''s negative image of America due to the Bush administration reckless business plans (the GOP is a business if you didn''''t know).

Posted by unbiased11 at 07:09 PM

Wrong - higher taxes will lead to less jobs, and higher costs passed down to the consumer. More companies will move offshore (as we are considering) and take advantage of the global markets. Sorry that will mean less jobs for you and your friends, but don''t worry ACORN still has openings.

[jesuit12]

Obama is trying to pull off the biggest hype over the American people. He loathes people from rural America and put divisive policies in place if elected. He lies about taxes and will raise them just as he has voted for throughout his short term as a Senator. His tax structure will make small businesses lay off fold or move out of the US. He met with the Canadian delegation to assure them he would not take action against NAFTA. He wants to raise taxes to be on par with the OECD countries that purport Socialism. France cannot compete with business in America because their tax rate is high to support social programs. The OECD states that taxes must be raised in the US so the rate differential does not harm France.

p.p.s Oh and for you oh small minded WISDOMFIRST - I finally make about 68k a year after 17 years of practice. See I have been working doing public interest law and you don%u2019t get that much in that area. I grew up raised by a single mom who knew how to feed a family on a package of pinto beans, hamhocks and 13 cent a box Jiffy corn bread.

CORRECTIONS:

1) Senator Obama did not come to Joe''s door. He was on the street talking to people and Joe came to him.

2) Senator Obama did not bring Joe''s name up in the last debate. McCain did. 21 times.

3) If Joe wants to blame anyone for this sudden fame, he ought to blame McCain for using his name and his occupation to attack Obama''s campaign.

[lawgal1]

joe 2009more - 12 years in russia and the only thing you can come up with is one AP article by Babington? Really?

Men-moto-scutr - what the heck does that handle stand for? You say:1) You can''''t beat barefoot, pregnant and in the kitchen -
well buster many of my friends who are also lifelong dems have lapsed into that wasteland regarding Palin. Seems to me that is the last thing democrats should be doing.
2) I absolutely want you to vote for McCain/Palin. I would be embarrassed to be seen with you. I would be insulted to be associated with your ideas about womens'''' rights, childrens'''' rights, or the rights of the elderly, the infirm, the outcast and the forgotten. -
What have you done menmotoscutr in the last 20 years for these groups fella? You can be insulted all you want. Frankly, I don%u2019t give a d*mn. I have thousands of abused children, women, the elderly and disabled that have counted on me and will continue and a close minded neanderthal like you won%u2019t change that.
3) One question: once you''''ve pulled that level or marked that ballot for McCain/Palin, how are you planning to get the stink off? Ingest it? -
The only stink that I have to get off is the stink of close minded testosterone hypocrites like yourself that call yourself a liberal, but truly hate real liberal ideas. Those that revert to sexism, race and class warfare as well as namecalling when you don%u2019t get your way. I know 6 year olds with more common sense and manners!

[jesuit12]

What a bunch of crock. The poor guy was in his own yard when Obama walks up tro him and asks his opinion. Just because he didn''t agree with the so called messiah they investigate him. This does not bode well for an Obama presidency.

Obama''s drug use is not even brought up. This was not the casual use of pot but a hard core drug that if he were caught would have been a felony and disqualify from even running for president. In many countries he would just be getting out of jail.

[scottyusa]

It''s the media stupid. The media is clearly on Obama''s side and has dug up and published all kinds of bad things about anyone connected to McCain. It is disgusting. They brush of Reverend Wright and all the other Obama connections such as Farakhan and Ayers but grind Joe the plumber into the sewer pipe.

the consequences of "no" taxes and anarchy.

Posted by unbiased11 at 07:01 PM :

I am do not mind paying taxes for necessities. I just need to know how much will make me patriotic.

[titletrack]

From my statements, it obvious that i am not stupid and i don''''t depend on the government. You are not smart enough to know how the nation works, and how you are able to make the money you make- its because of the collective consuming power of the american people which leads to a strong treasury (due to tax) which then is entered into loan programs that lend the companies you and I work for, so that employees can be paid. You are so self consumed and selfish, that you don''''t even realize the consequences of know taxes and anarchy.

Posted by unbiased11 at 07:00 PM : Oct 21, 2008

Then is Obama stupid? Because raising taxes will lead to decreased tax revenue - then couple that with his increased spending proposals and protectionist ideas..here comes the depression you all want so bad. Praise Obama
