I've got to put it this way: if you vote for Obama because you think he's going to tax someone making more money than you and give it to you, I hope he raises your taxes. That would be plain, simple poetic justice.
If you want someone else to pay more so you can have more stuff, it is only fitting that you should have to pay more so someone else can have your stuff.
There's ALWAYS somebody with less. If you make $42,000 a year, shouldn't you pay more so that someone who makes $20,000 a year can have a piece of the pie? And, if you make $20,000 a year, shouldn't you pay more so that someone who doesn't have a job have a piece of the pie?
.....
The logic is that 5% of Americans should be patriotic and pay more in taxes, while the other 95% should be unpatriotic and pay less in taxes. Don't believe that crap: Obama-Biden will give as many people as they possibly can the opportunity "to be patriotic."
To paraphrase the old garage-sale adage, "One man's trash is another man's treasure": One man's middle class is another man's rich. You may wake up and find out that you've just been classified as "rich." And God help you then, because the Democrats in total control of the government sure won't.

The Wall Street Journal crunches the numbers, and it turns out that Obama's tax plan is like Captain Crunch, the cereal that tastes good to ignorant children, but is terrible for you when it actually gets into your system.
