That is exactly what will happen if the Bush Tax cuts are cancelled..........you bracket will go from 10 to 15 percent and to 28 to 31 percent. That is what the Democrats and Hussein Obama want to pay for their social programs...........

Why do you always refer to Barrack Obama by his middle and last name? I can understand referring to him by his last name,which I do all the time with most political figures. I can understand referring to him by his first name,which many people also do.But the only people on the planet I know who go by their middle name are a couple friends of mine and that is due to the fact they hate their first name. So why refer to Barrack Obama by his middle and last name? Are you trying to make some correlation between Barrack Obama and Saddam Hussein? Are you trying to imply that since his middle name is Hussein then he must be some dictator like Saddam Hussein? Or are you trying to imply that he must be a Mus-a-lim since his middle name is Hussein? You do realize that this sort of **** makes other conservatives look like conspiracy loons?
 
Either the Bush Tax Cuts get renewed for everyone or taxes go up on everyone. Quid pro quo. This for that.

thank God the GOP has the house-the dems would send a bill that hikes the taxes on the most productive tax payers and use class warfare to try to pass it. boehner should say-all or nothing. that seems FAIR to me

Yeah, and Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan don't want to cut the defense budget or subsidies to big business in order to decrease the federal deficit.

:spin:
 
BS line. The majority of our current debt is Bush's unprecedented war time tax break.

Since when did every single dollar of our debt become solely Obama's fault?


Sorry Hussein Obama 6 trillion dollars, all the rest of the presidents in history combined 5 trillion dollars......Its been posted in DP a dozen times.........you need to try and keep up.

Or congress comes together and figures out another plan. But that wont happen so the Bush tax cuts will get passed (again).
 
and that absolves the lesser criminals? like the Bush clan who sacrificed many, many American lives at the altar of their collective ego?

I wonder if you have a clue how many lives LBJ sacraficed in Nam..............Probably not.....I can tell you it is thousands more then lost the lives in Iraq and Afghanistan.........Funny how you lefties alway ignore Nam.........
 
i vote no but if anyones taxes should go up it should be the masses who vote for big spenders

What is your point in referring to him by his middle name? Yes, it is his middle name... so what? It's not like he chose it. It's not like he uses it in daily life. It's not like he was born after people like Saddam came to power, and his parents chose it for that reason. Hence, it doesn't mean anything... AT ALL.

It's simply juvenile crap, and it clearly demonstrates a complete and utter lack of objectivity in your thinking. If I can't trust you to think logically on something as meaningless as their given name, then I certainly cannot trust you to put rational thought into anything that needs rational thought. Your failure is already demonstrated and proven.

As has been mentioned by others, all you're doing is painting your side of the political spectrum in a bad and childish light. You're doing more harm to your own cause than you seem to be aware.
 
or every president since Reagan took office......right?

not enough people get the proper feedback as to the cost of government. if everyone suffered more taxes when government spent more, spending as a means of buying votes would soon become extinct
 
Come on people lets see your vote...........50 people have viewed this thread and we have 3 votes......
You don't ask a complete question just a simple question that doesn't cover the issue. You also intend to extrapolate from the answer. Then you feign surprise.

If our govt had to prepay the wars, we would have less of them.....
tax rates would have to be hiked up front, then for the duration of the war, adjusted as needed, plus 50% to cover veterans benefits for those killed or maimed...

why do you constantly whine that others who pay far more taxes than you do ought to pay even more? I don't expect you to fund stuff I want, why do you expect me to pay for stuff you want?

Turtle...you have never EVER heard me say raise taxs on anyone...what I have said and meant was that YOU and your buddies do not need any more tax cuts...and they need to get rid of the loopholes so you actually pay what you whine you pay and you dont...none of you do

you aren't competent to tell me what I need. As long as I pay more than the average voter who gets the same rights I do, I need tax cuts.

My opinion is just as competent as yours...and thats all yours is....the tax rate means nothing, because no rich or corporations pay anywhere near it.....want to really fix the deficit...heres how to do it..

Let the bush tax cuts expire and let taxs go up for everyone....cut out all loopholes across the board and close all tax havens...so everyone across the board pays the tax rate they are supposed to have been paying all along.
Reform SS in a reasonable manner...reform medicare....then after the debt is GONE...go back and revisit taxs...but NO the right will have none of that....they want to murder medicare...raise the age on SS and diminish the benefits...end medicaid and GIVE huge tax cuts to the rich and corps...its hilarious....and if Obama wins you can thank Paul Ryan and all the idiots like him
 
Taxes should revert back to where they were gradually working it's way down. On the same note, we should have the lowest corporate tax rate in the world, along with tax incentives to keep companies in America.
