u been misinformed obama is only raising tax on 5 % 95% make under 250000 unless your an idiot then you would kno what his agenda is. oh by the way mccain oposed tax cut for the rich lmfao and now he wants to lowere taxes and pass a 3.3 trillion dollar tax cut money we dont have what a fucking joke. mccain is pullin shit out of his ass to try and win . its common sense.
lmfao socialist then you must want to be communist because thats the direction mccain is heading. there is a big gapp between rich and poor and its getting even bigger and with mccain given 58% of the rich tax cut there getting richer and the porr is satying the same. by the way mccain opposed tax cut for the rich and now he wants to cut their tax. he opposed a 400 billion dollar tax cut and now wants to pass a 3.3 trill tx cut good luck in our econmy.
Been there already bitch...Semper Fi asshole.You want my money,give me your address i'll bring it to you fucking rat,ignorant fuck...bet you don't even know how to describe socialism or anarchy, wich is exactly what you have now idiot.Retard,Dumbass,hope you get cancer or Aids.Bottom line ,hope you die and blacks and Hispanics pee on your fucking corpse...Ja Ja!
Fuck joe the plumber and all of this Republican racist White collar assholes.This fucker doesn't represent Americas voice.Obama will be president,be ready racist pricks!...The first Black president.The end of Fucking White supremacy is over,next; you'll have a president named PANCHO ,RACIST MOTHERFUCKERS....Keep fighting for an empty cause,go back to Ireland or any fucking part of white Europe you belong to Fuckers!..
did Obama say he pays allot less taxes then the rest of us at 3:08, and wants to keep paying less? how about you reinstate those taxes and lead by example you elitist fuck
What irks me.....All throughout the conversation, Obama's essentially telling Joe to stay UNDER $250,000 a year, even though Joe the Plumber clearly WANTS to GROW the business when he buys it.
Obama tax ideas amount to a "success tax" (neatly packaged and unmarked as that of course).Spread the WEALTH around senator,but let that wealth be "EARNED"
Most Americans (police officers, fire fighters, nurses, teachers, janitors, social workers, students, secretaries, psychologysts, etc) DO NOT make more than 250K a year and that make up 95% of Americans. Their taxes won't be increased under Obama's plan.
McSame , ON THE OTHER HAND, wants the MAJORITY of people to pay taxes and give the richest of the rich (CEOs and corporations) tax breaks.
If you are NOT as wealthy as Bill Gates, Obama is your man.
Fuck that. I don't plan on owning a business. I don't have the know-how to run one. What would work for me is if there were more jobs which means if businesses get tax breaks, they have more money to hire me and millions exactly like me. Trickle-down economics works. Want proof, check the stats from when Reagan was president. Can't argue with the facts. Just because you say the sky is purple, that doesn't make it purple. It's still blue and there's no arguing with it. You just look insane.
@gunslingerRolan19, well if you don't plan to own a business then you are better off under Obama's plan too because he will give you a tax cut. That way, you can spend more money like in car, education, books, medicine, houses, appliances and guess what? when you spend your money, you are helping the business grow and they will hire more people to keep up with the demand.
So if you are not as wealthy as Bill Gates, Obama is your man.
How am I gonna make that money if there are no jobs because all the money I spend buying product from businesses is pocketed by the government because they're taxing the hell ouf of their in-come? You can't argue with trickle-down economics. Hell, I'll agree with you. I want a middle class tax break. But don't screw over the business owners and give them tax cuts also so I can make more money in the process. It just makes sense. People with ambition should be given incentive.
We are such peons! For the past 8 years wealth was spread around FROM THE POOR TO THE RICH! Our 401K's are almost gone, our homes are going into foreclosure, banks R going bankrupt! They didn't call it taxes this past 8 years, but the cost to the middle class has been devastating! Want to know who are the guilty here? FOLLOW THE MONEY, it is most likely in REPUBLICAN'S HANDS!
A capital gains tax (abbreviated: CGT) is a tax charged on capital gains, the profit realized on the sale of a non-inventory asset that was purchased at a lower price. The most common capital gains are realized from the sale of stocks, bonds, precious metals and property. Not all countries implement a capital gains tax and most have different rates of taxation for individuals and corporations.
If Obama really want to spread the wealth; it will have to start with himself first. He is rich. Not to mention that his goons went after Joe hard afterwards.
he is right for askin why HE is taxed more. but the matter of the fact is UNDER OBAMA'S PLAN HIS BUSINESS'S CAPITAL GAIN WILL NOT BE TAXED. he is askin about his personal devident tax, and yeah! if he is makin a stagerin 250,000 then its fair to tax him than to tax a familly man who makes 100,000
but OBAMA WILL NEVER TAX SMALL BUSINESSES CAPITAL GAIN!...MOST SMALL BUSSINESS OWNERS MAKE LESS THAN 250,000 AFTER THEY PAY THIER BILLS!
(darn laptop) ...subsidies that certain industries get is socialism!

In Australia we have a socialist, democratic, capitalist, economy/ society. At present we are one of the best economically safe countries in the world. We have surpluses in the multiple Billions, no national/ federal debt. 4% unemployment, universal health care, public funding for university education, government funded colleges and other technical. We have a great society with real social security.
There is luck is business, some good judgments can turn bad because of bad luck,or things out side of a persons control. Um...like the economy...things unforeseen.

Why you Americans are so hell bent scared on any form of socialism is beyond my understanding. You have a corporate socialism, the subsidiary
The far left loonies are trying to dig up dirt on Joe the plumber. They are screaming blue murder because Joe has not paid some taxes. Let's see if the MSM and other far left crazies are worried about Obama's campaign treasurer, Martin Nesbitt -will it be reported that he has a tax lien for over $4,000. These are the people to vet.
and one last point i'd like to make, if you give tax breaks to the rich, they acumulate money and less of it is paid to lower workers, and less money is available to people who work in the DMV and Fire Dept. Thats where the tax money is going. More taxes have to be paid by the low income people and therefore the business that is making the rich man all his money will have much fewer customers from which to get money. thats what has happened in this country. too many tax breaks for the rich
Do you know what REVENUE is? Its whats left over AFTER all the workers are paid. that's the revenue, and that's what is taxed. say a business makes 500k in a year, and 250 of it was paid out to employees, and another 100k is overhead. thats 150k thats taxable revenue. secondly, there IS a capital gains tax on businesses. and thridly, even though the richer businessmen have greater financial obligations, they also have a greater margin of cashflow to fulfill them.
Yet some Joes fell like they should not pay anything and live for free... well there is no free rides. And by the way, all those who are so concerned about being taxed more, look at how your money has been spent on the last 8 years.Look at how much has been spent on the war on Iraq and helping Halliburton (not an American company by any means). That money could had been spent in greater causes like your kids education.
Me particular do not mind paying higher taxes, as long as it goes to a government that is doing its job. Its job would be to aid educational programs, help people with disabilities (welfare), government jobs, improvement to highways, etc, etc.
It looks like Jeremiah Wright was just the tip of the iceberg. Not only did Barack Obama savor Wrights sermons, Obama gave legitimacy — and a whole lot of money — to education programs built around the same extremist anti-American ideology preached by Reverend Wright. All this is revealed with a careful study of documents from the Chicago Annenberg Challenge, the education foundation Obama and Ayers jointly led in the late 1990s.. through ACORN.. ever hear of it?
Joe doesn't look like he wants to run a businesss under an Obama administration and neither will other small businesses or large corporations which run this country through employment. Obama wants to increase taxes for them to "Spread the wealth" while spending their tax dollars on programs that are not necessary. This will cause small businesses to close because it will be more costly and large corporations to go overseas where there is lower taxes. Obama wants to kill this country w/ SOCIALISM
Turns out that 'Joe the Plumber' is Joe Wurzelbacher, a close relative of Robert Wurzelbacher of Milford, Ohio. Who is Robert Wurzelbacher? Only Charles Keatings son-in-law!!
Now I guess we know why Joe is telling the press that Obama is a 'socialist' and that the Obama tax plan 'infuriated' him. After all, it would hit families like the Keatings and their minions the hardest.
McCain's 'Joe the Plumber' campaign trick just blew up in his hypocritical face. Poetic justice.
And another thing, Under the Obama plan, Joe will receive $3,000 tax credit for every single job he creates, offsetting any tax increase. Rewarding job creation in America and not overseas, what a concept!
Details matter, read the minutia and the whole plan before assuming a position.
The higher you are in the tax bracket, top 1%, your taxes goes up 3 measly %. Where is the outrage of Bush and McCain doubling our debt from 5 to 10 trillion dollars??? Increasing our spending and budget deficit to a half of a trillion dollars???
JOe is a registered voter OK. He is not yet earning $250K he is planning to buy a business that could earn that on an estimate.
So now you Obamabots are concerned about connections?
McCain was exonarated in that Keating 5 case where he was the only Repub among all others who were DEMOCRATS OK? That case has been closed a loooong time ago and he was exonerated check the records.
Hey Joe the plumber...how come you aren't out working? If you are making $250K a year working for a company your making $961./day...thats over $100./hour. I think you're overpaid as it is. Go back to your fox news...
For the guy who posted this video: I was thinking about rebutting all of your comments on this video but I realized that I would be justifying stupidity. I'm actually going to ask you a question. What experience, expertise, or prior knowledge do you have in regards to economics on a business stand point? Please provide proof because this is the internet and anyone can say anything. Thank you.
He was born in Hawaii because he says it or because he's proven it (?)
point about the controversy is that McCain has already proved his birth place when asked by the simple deed of showing his BIRTH CERTIFICATE,...Obama has so far refused to do this and it has legally challenged it.
He did show a shitty birth certification which is not the same as a formal BIRTH CERTIFICATE if you doyour research.
check sync1959 channel for instance if youhave anydoubts about the subject.
Joe the plumber would be better off not buying or starting a business. Welcome to the new USA, where u dont have to work hard or even work smart! The govt will spoon fed u, from cradle to grave, as long as u behave and follow their instructions.
Exactly. The thing is that Joe is an idiot and doesn't realize or doesn't have an accountant that could adjust his income by writing off his expenses bringing his income way lower than $250k. I know plenty of people who make well over $250k and still only declare a 5 figure income. In reality they pay less taxes in propotion than middle income people working a 9 to 5 because they don't have the write off ability.
What's REALLY is amazing is that these "Joe Average Americans" are so ignorant, greedy, and self-destructive. The Neo-Cons and Internationalists are F-ING THEM UP THE ASS outsourcing jobs, destroying unions, building the NAFTA Superhighway, etc., and yet THEY ARE STILL SO BRAIN-DEAD THAT THEY THINK OBAMA IS THE PROBLEM...!!!
Wasn't the rape of our country by the Wall Street Banksters system a wake up call for you dumb fucks...???!!
Joe don't buy that business, BO will slap you down, if you become successful. You are guaranteed failure! I don't see how he can say 39% with a strait face! That is outrageous!
whaa whaa whaa so your employees probably subcontractors will get the tax break and you won't whaa whaa all the way to the bank your not a plumber Joe your the guy who rips him off its about time you started to pay for something !
what a bullshit video, twisting it into something its not. $250,000 is alot of money, not alot of people make. You can't please everyone & this video is trying to make up my mind about the whole thing,,,, screw you i can make up my own mind.......OBAMA 08
Sat makes a good point. The American Dream isn't necessarily all about "Hey I want to be rich, and screw everyone else". It should be more aimed at making everyone successful. Hell, I'd much rather be making $250,000/yr with a slight tax increase, than be making 30k/yr and living paycheck to paycheck with a tax break. So, if you're rich and have a problem with it, maybe you should be a little more grateful.
My dad owned a plumbing business that cleared about $200K per yr, before taxes. He was willing to pay whatever taxes he needed to keep the afnily biusiness going. He wasn;t so self-possessed that he would simple-mindedly vote for the guy that gave HIM an advantage.
The ignorance surrounding all the issues that Obama raised in this conversation is incredible. The cute red counterattack text is just as flawed as anything we've heard during the debates.
Joe the plumber must make very very good money, to be able to buy a company whose revenues are $250,000. It seems to me that he must have or be able to get financing at or above 1,000,000 dollars. Because I can't imagine someone selling a company that has revenues of $250,000 for anything less.
A plumber making over 250K a year! The damn company generates 250K NOT THE PLUMBER. These are the EXACT companies Obama believes moves out economy and WILL BE GIVING TAX CUTS.
Is this too dificult for republicans to understand? Maybe it's just to complicated for a 72 year old and a Jockey "mudd mouth" mom to understand
What Barack could have explained is that under his plan, Joe's CUSTOMERS would be getting more money in tax breaks, therefore becoming more able and inclined to hire Joe for some plumbing. The more financially secure you are, the more likely you are to hire a plumber, rather than trying to do it yourself. Call it, "Trickle Up Theory" if ya like... It makes sense. It is logical.
Joe would benefit financially from wealthier customers. That benefit would offset any tax increase.
First off Joe is going to have to raise his rates to meet his bottom line to deal with the increased tax. Also Joe's customers are going to have employers who's taxes have been raised by Obama so they're employers are going to be less inclined to give Joe's customers bonus's or not make cutbacks which could mean some of Joe's customers lose their jobs. Joe will have to charge more to people making less money, get it??
The red backround comments are simply greed based. Joe is not going to the gallows you moron, he's just going to have to pay a little more for the low balled wages he's most likely going to offer his employees. The republican mob are just zombies -- use your brain, listen and stop being brainwashed by Limbaugh,Hannity O'Reilly and Coulter ...hillbillies -- sheez.
start up businesses will not be discouraged. if you are a start up business you won't be making much so you will see TAX CUTS only. also, there IS a CAPITAL GAINS TAX on small businesses. i am proud that obama is going to be our next president. liars like you would be the death of our great country.
the rest of your claims are just as far fetched so i'll summarize my stance against them. you mentioned the waitress. if we're talking ratios here, as in the ratio of her income to her rent/bills/living expenses vs. the ratio of someone who makes plenty money and their income to expenses. the waitress is barely getting by while the other guy has loads of petty cash to splurge with. also luck has plenty to do with success, and obama was talking poitics anyways.
8)continued.. Just because she is a waitress does not mean she does not pay rent, insurance, car loan, utilities, etc. 9)Learn the tax code, lower taxes on everything up to 250k, and higher taxes on the 30k above that. Its a net tax cut. 10)Lower taxes encourage business start ups. 90% of business take 5 years to turn a profit, therefore, no tax on a loss. 11)There is a cap gains tax on business. If they invest in their business and increases in value, they pay tax based on that increase. READ!!
Whoever entered the slides is an idot. 1)50%, not 15%. 2)Companies that MAKE more than 250, not VALUED at. 3)Business owners are inherently more wealthy than employees, its kinda the point. 4)That 5% already have the means to better themselves, its why they're in the top 5%. 5)He said "flat" tax. and it takes people unevenly. 60im sorry, did you skip 6? 7)Any successful business person (myself included) will assure you there is some luck involved. 8)Your argument makes no sense and has no basis.
Desperate republicans are trying to play bait and switch, trading issues for attacks! It's cause they don't want you to know that SARAH PALIN IS AN AIP TERRORIST PLANT! Her BRAINWASHED, KOOL-AID swilling AIP PALS HATE AMERICA!!
SARAH PALIN is a one woman TERROR CELL! If elected, she will destroy the USA!
3.joe would NOT be better off. joe is going to be making so much more than than he did as just a plumber. regardless of taxes.
4.i don't even know how to respond to you on this one. the dream is killed because you're being taxed higher so people in need can have a chance? you make a ton of money, it's not as if you're going to be taxed beyond your profit margin.
5.i don't understand why flat tax sounds like fair tax to you, but ok. obama did not say he wants that, but hes open if it can help us.
i commented too early. just watched the entire video.. you amaze me. in the worst possible way. do your research, because you have no idea what you are talking about. i said my piece on your first point, now i'll finish.
2. he said SMALL business. and the average small business DOES make/is worth less than $250,000. i used the "/" because both aspects worth and income for small businesses will benefit from obama's plan.
Get rid of taxes for the rich people - Let the trashy poor people of the world just die... Poor people are useless. They don't need health care. They are just stupid baby makers and should just shut up and serve the rich. That is what they are there for, to serve the rich. If they get sick, they should go shut up and die. They can't afford health care so they should quit complaining about it and die... THAT WOULD MAKE THE WORLD BETTER, RIGHT???
And I don't get why republicans are pro-life ??? I thought the whole idea was to get rid of the poor stupid trash that gets pregnant in some trailer and wants to get rid of the baby because she's too lazy to stand in the food stamp line... Wouldn't the republicans want to let her kill it off??? Never understood that.........
Hey Joe, as Obama says, you're "lucky". So, Obama just wants to 'spread the wealth around', ie: your hard-earned wealth. America will wake up in the next two weeks to Obama the Socialcrat.
50% tax credit. not 15%. 50% will cover a lot, 15% won't. which is why its 50%. let me say it again.. 50% we need better health care in our country. mccain's plan is not going to make things easier on anyone. obama's are. i feel bad for whoever edited this video. but even more i feel bad for our country. because the same guy who's making videos without checking facts is going to vote without really knowing what is going on. it's pretty sad, actually.
Fuck Joe the Plumber and Joe Six Pack, how the hell does a plumber make over $250 K? If that's the case I'm gonna start scrubbing toilets and fixin' shit in bathrooms. If you like Bush vote for McCain, otherwise VOTE FOR OBAMA, I did (early ballot)
Income is hardly a basis of intelligence. And though I'm happy you enjoy such success, I hope you realize "lazy ass people" take your money, America does, which is predominantly the middle class. And its rather odd that the "MSNBC...LIBERAL STATION" shows the predictions of the deficit increase while the conservative stations don't show anything because they'd rather hide the truth than hurt their favored candidate.
this is silly. this is a blog of liberals and right-wingers hating on each other. Like anyone is going to change their minds cause a YouTube post. I'm going to vote for whoever I feel will do our country as a whole better regardless of silly insults by repubs and cocky comments of liberals. Everyone is so angry because they can't stand a change of view opposed to how they were raised.
Wow. Obama is brilliant, eloquent and truly believes in helping the U.S out of the slump it is in. I feel pity for all of those who are too racist, bigoted & uneducated to see how brilliant a leader Obama will be for all of us. I just don't get how people cannot see that.
Obama's plan will stunt economic growth. Business owners teetering between 200k and 300k will just say 'ok you drew a line so I'll stay just below.' why would they strive to do better if their gov't is going to take more of their money and spread it around? This is the same philosphy taken by many people in all entitlement programs too. The only thing that grows is the gov't. VOTE McCain - because everyone can't be on welfare!
That really doesn't make any sense. If that was true, people would never try to climb the economic ladder. They would just stay below $8,025 (after deductions and exemptions), so that they could only pay 10% of their income.
A waitress doesn't have the financial obligations of a career position? Hell no! Just child care and medical bills and trying to make the rent payment on a waitress's wage and tips. Give me a break.
you have obviously been a spoiled bratt all your life, do you know that a career position can better handle the obligations. the waitress has to truly "grind" and might even be more stressed than a career position person. there are ppl out there living from paycheck to paycheck, not b/c of debt but b/c thats all they make, and their obligations take all that up, how many career ppl do u know with a 250,000 business that are living from paycheck to paycheck?
Let me make it a little more clear for you. I was responding to the slide in the video that state a waitress likely doesn't have the financial obligations of a career position. I was not in agreement with that statement. I was pointing out that waitresses likely have a tougher time getting by on wages and tips than a person in a "career position." I am supporting Obama and his tax cuts for the lower income. Does this make sense now?
wow, these ppl think that a waitress has less obligations to take care of than Joe the plumber. Another key issue these republicans cannot get through their dull minds is that a tree is built from its roots, from the bottom up, if you strengthen the roots( the middle and lower class) it will in turn strengthen the tree ( the country/ everyone) as a whole, a elementary school student can see this analogy, why are most republicans narrow minded?
barak obama is a stupid ass. and anyone who thinks other wise should watch this clip over and over. i am very sucessfull and own a small company that makes well over 250000 & just because i went to school and got my education i should be punished for hard work and pay more taxes so lazy ass people like u guys can loaf around & live of us sucessfull people yall are dumb and its people like u who cause higher taxes so the government can take care of u GET A JOB & WORK HARD AND & ULL GET SOMEHWERE
Did you know that as successful as you are, you still need ppl who make so much less than you, the ppl who collect your trash every week and so forth, if u neglect them and cut them off, who is going to do their job. we are all a system, and if we strengthen foundation, the structure as a whole is stronger, i guess your schooling skipped the fundamentals!
Actually there is a capital tax gains. And McCain's tax program would bring the deficit to $1 Trillion while Barack's program would only increase it to $737 Billion. This is according to the Truth Squad of MSNBC. Look it up.
What do you mean a "TYPICAL OBAMA SUPPORTER"? You're supporting the stereotype of generalizing, elitist, passive-aggressive McCain supporter. I would avoid insulting a whole group of people based on YouTube posts.
After voting for the corporate socialist Bush TWICE, the PSEUDO "conservative" Republican establishment ditto-heads will NEVER again be able to label their opponents as the "socialists".
I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United Socialist States of God Damn AmeriKKKa,
And to the Banana Republic that is to be,
One nation, Two standards, under our New Messiah and his Audacity of False Hope, Lies and Shattered Dreams of past Liberty and Justice for all my Homies.
Wow... If you really don't like it here so much, fuckin leave. You know what the ONE biggest mistake America has ever made? Slavery. Slavery was America's BIGGEST mistake EVER. You know why? Because if my ancestors knew what we have to put up with today, they would have just left your ancestors in that third world petri dish they boosted you off of in the first place. Goddamn my ancestors. Goddamn them.
If it wasn't for slavery you would have your Michael Jordan, Michael Jackson, NBA, NFL and every thing that the White man create to enrich you niggers...It was blacks selling blacks to the White man. You should be Thankful to the White man for bring you niggers out of the jungle. No black person is born a slave today so get on with it, ASSHOLE!!!
This video is stupid...More tax breaks for middle class means more money in their pocket to spend on services such as plumbing so it would in the long run be good for the economy as a whole.
I understand his intension, but I worked very hard for my money and I do a lot of charity in my free time but still I don't want to just hand my mone to those less fortunte. I'm sorry but that's my problem.

2) McCain bought "joe" up at the debates as a abberation from the issues.
3)Colin Powell now endorses Obama, so Obama now reaches across the aisle.

You can't argue with trickle-down economics. Hell, I'll agree with you. I want a middle class tax break. But don't screw over the business owners and give them tax cuts also so I can make more money in the process. It just makes sense. People with ambition should be given incentive.

We are such peons! For the past 8 years wealth was spread around FROM THE POOR TO THE RICH! Our 401K's are almost gone, our homes are going into foreclosure, banks R going bankrupt! They didn't call it taxes this past 8 years, but the cost to the middle class has been devastating! Want to know who are the guilty here? FOLLOW THE MONEY, it is most likely in REPUBLICAN'S HANDS!

Joe isn't even his name. He makes 40k a year and is going to buy a company that makes 250k a year. Where is he going to get the loan.
His name isn't joe...He owes 1100 in back taxes and has a lien for medical bills. Sounds like he is looking for a sub-prime loan.
Joe is a deadbeat pretending to be a small time bigshot businessman.

A capital gains tax (abbreviated: CGT) is a tax charged on capital gains, the profit realized on the sale of a non-inventory asset that was purchased at a lower price. The most common capital gains are realized from the sale of stocks, bonds, precious metals and property. Not all countries implement a capital gains tax and most have different rates of taxation for individuals and corporations.

but OBAMA WILL NEVER TAX SMALL BUSINESSES CAPITAL GAIN!...MOST SMALL BUSSINESS OWNERS MAKE LESS THAN 250,000 AFTER THEY PAY THIER BILLS!

and one last point i'd like to make, if you give tax breaks to the rich, they acumulate money and less of it is paid to lower workers, and less money is available to people who work in the DMV and Fire Dept. Thats where the tax money is going. More taxes have to be paid by the low income people and therefore the business that is making the rich man all his money will have much fewer customers from which to get money. thats what has happened in this country. too many tax breaks for the rich

Do you know what REVENUE is? Its whats left over AFTER all the workers are paid. that's the revenue, and that's what is taxed. say a business makes 500k in a year, and 250 of it was paid out to employees, and another 100k is overhead. thats 150k thats taxable revenue. secondly, there IS a capital gains tax on businesses. and thridly, even though the richer businessmen have greater financial obligations, they also have a greater margin of cashflow to fulfill them.
JathTech 3 years ago
Yet some Joes fell like they should not pay anything and live for free... well there is no free rides. And by the way, all those who are so concerned about being taxed more, look at how your money has been spent on the last 8 years.Look at how much has been spent on the war on Iraq and helping Halliburton (not an American company by any means). That money could had been spent in greater causes like your kids education.

Joe doesn't look like he wants to run a businesss under an Obama administration and neither will other small businesses or large corporations which run this country through employment. Obama wants to increase taxes for them to "Spread the wealth" while spending their tax dollars on programs that are not necessary. This will cause small businesses to close because it will be more costly and large corporations to go overseas where there is lower taxes. Obama wants to kill this country w/ SOCIALISM

He did show a shitty birth certification which is not the same as a formal BIRTH CERTIFICATE if you doyour research.

In reality they pay less taxes in propotion than middle income people working a 9 to 5 because they don't have the write off ability.

What Barack could have explained is that under his plan, Joe's CUSTOMERS would be getting more money in tax breaks, therefore becoming more able and inclined to hire Joe for some plumbing. The more financially secure you are, the more likely you are to hire a plumber, rather than trying to do it yourself. Call it, "Trickle Up Theory" if ya like... It makes sense. It is logical.
Joe would benefit financially from wealthier customers. That benefit would offset any tax increase.

First off Joe is going to have to raise his rates to meet his bottom line to deal with the increased tax.

the rest of your claims are just as far fetched so i'll summarize my stance against them. you mentioned the waitress. if we're talking ratios here, as in the ratio of her income to her rent/bills/living expenses vs. the ratio of someone who makes plenty money and their income to expenses. the waitress is barely getting by while the other guy has loads of petty cash to splurge with. also luck has plenty to do with success, and obama was talking poitics anyways.
isayyall 3 years ago
8)continued.. Just because she is a waitress does not mean she does not pay rent, insurance, car loan, utilities, etc. 9)Learn the tax code, lower taxes on everything up to 250k, and higher taxes on the 30k above that. Its a net tax cut. 10)Lower taxes encourage business start ups. 90% of business take 5 years to turn a profit, therefore, no tax on a loss. 11)There is a cap gains tax on business. If they invest in their business and increases in value, they pay tax based on that increase. READ!!
