Obama Explains His Tax Cut Plans To Plumbing Business Owner

[DennisfromDC]

Clearly this guy just doesn't want to be taxed.

[Censeo]

Hey good news republicans. Obama is not following through any of this. He is sucking up to the republicans, and you will have business as usual. Tax cuts for the rich! Congratulations to you I say. And to Obama I say, you need orthopedic surgery, if that is what it's called when someone puts a spine in you. You don't have any right now :(

[OmarAlQaseer]

That's right, the wealthy shouldn't have to pay taxes! They should be able to avoid paying taxes as much as possible so that the American economy can go straight down the shitter!

[ev1lcupcak3]

Joe the plumber for president!

[Auggie56]

The lawsuit is progressing against the state of Ohio, for three women in gov, who went into Joe's records, and handing them over to the left. Go Joe !

[lilsk8erkid]

yea except its not ten years ago i cant believe people voted for this guy -__-

[tazroc02]

haha cocky ass bamma you suck.

[pokerslut530]

LOL @ the title alone... this outta be entertaining :D

[Mulder84010]

It's called "change".

Enjoy it, hard working suckers.

[banklady25]

I make my own luck.

[jkjnt69]

The reason were doing that is for white trash and niggers who contribute nothing but a "vote" to soak the system. And now we will leagalize aliens from mexico so that Demogods can hold power forever. No change here !!!

[yojunkzfaded]

• If youre a 50-year old-with a college degree, you will pay approximately $81,000 over your working life just to pay the interest on the debt in the Obama budget.

• If youre a 40-year-old, youll pay $132,000.

• And if youre a 20-year-old, just starting out after college, you will pay a whopping $114,000 just to service the interest on the debt created by the Obama budget

[Avatarblackwolf]

Dont redistribute my wealth, redistribute my work ethnic

[MuckoMan]

Barack Rules! Man this guy is on top of things. Someone who actually gives a shit for a change.

[Liberalsareparasites]

are you realy this fucking stupid. this was 5mos. ago. do you still think this dumb nigger is on top of things.

[sniper034]

Wow my fellow Americans can be really stupid sometimes. Electing Barack Obama was one of those times.

[skull123456]

wow how can som1 not vote for obama after seeing this

[jotunPIKK]

True.

Can you imagine Bush actually debating with a citizen about a issue this deep. I mean can Bush actually talk at all, or just give a prewritten speech?

One can ofc disagree with Obama's opinions. But one can not deny that this video prove that the man have some character and integrity atleast.

Like Trump said, he never vote for the party, he votes for the president. Because democrat or republican, it doesnt mean shit if you've got an idiot as president.

[MissyFuck]

Bush can't even deliver a prewritten speech lol

[eufor2001]

I think he was planted by McCain and Obama jut kicked his ass!!!!!!!!!!

[TomCatScat1]

Well your an idiot! LMAO!

[racrx32]

never ending. How can he compare himself to a waitress that does not know how much she will have in tips at the end of the day and he makes more in a day than she will in a life time. I dont know, am i missing something? I have not heard that waitresses have ties to lobbiest and earmark requsts. Geez!!

[vanceibz]

Its amazing to see how people are still not voting for Obama. To grow in the economy and have more business you need to apply Obamas tax raises. Turn the Tv off and read!

[NunyaBobbyAtayoel]

I is a po dumb kneegrow and I don't be wantin to work fo no money. I gonna sell crack and rob convenient sto's and Obama gonna give me some of errybody else wealth. I love America. We gots freedom of speekin and if ya ignorent the gubment gonna give you a check.

[Scaredycrat]

He also does't mention to old Joe that he support lesislation that will enable unions to sneak into his company without his knowing it until they represent his employees. That's when Joe will have to say goodbye to his business. Oh and if Joe hangs in there and gets to big company status, and provides thousands of jobs he will be rewarded with yet higher taxes. Welcome to the new America Joe. where you are thanked for creating jobs with higher taxes. How can anbody resist that urge.

[rob66679]

Funny how old joe doesn't mention how he once was on welfare, and he needed that social program to survive.

What a hipocrite.

Long live the IBEW asshole. You need a history lesson about what it was like to work back in the old days for a big company, that would work you to death for a profit.

[Scaredycrat]

Union scum, I know what it was like in the old days. That is why there are laws to protect workers. Uions are outdated and reckless in today's world of commerce. And stop picking on Joe we was a victim in all of this. Obama will destroy this country...

[rob66679]

Picking on Joe? Go fuck yourself.

Joe put himself in the middle of all this, and then he was exposed for what he is, a hipocrite.

What do you do for work? Janitor? Trucker?

Outdated and reckless LOL. The gap between the CEO's and the average worker has never been greater. Laws LOL!!! They didn't stop big business from fucking America in the ass this time did they? GREED!

moron

[Scaredycrat]

Man you truly are an idiot, your trusty government is resposible for the ass wiping we are dealing with right now.

and there will always be disparity between the upper and the lower, As far as what I do for work, I don't do anything, I am sponging off the system just like you!!

I can't wait for my new federal welfare checks to start coming, Let the good times roll...

[rob66679]

Right, so i'm in a union that doesn't have any workers? Fuck off asshole.

[MissyFuck]

I personally think all labor should be unionized, even on a global scale.

[Scaredycrat]

American's voting for Obama are selling their freedom to Obama for an average of 1000./ year

What he doesn't mention is that if you sell your house under his plan 100,000 profit under McCain plan Taxes 15000.00 under Obama 28000.00 Almost double, why doesn't he mention they are working right now to take people's 401k's from them and force them into Social Security. This is for real People!! Google it.

[trevoreriksmoen]

this is a lie anyway, obama is going to raise everyones taxes, he is going to let the bush tax cut expire in 2010 which will raise taxes on the middle class, even those making "less that 250 thousand"

[ls1phsyco]

yeah talk about it I have a have a plumbing business for only three workers I pay like $2400 every three months, and it's hard to make money, it's not that easy.

[eydaimon]

my wife who's been wanting to start a business now doesn't feel like it. She doesn't want to work her ass off only to have most of it taxed to death. Welcome to the non-insentivised system of a socialized country! I've had lots of friends in Sweden who just don't work because the government takes care of them either way. Is this really the kind of country we want?

[d1stewart1]

After Joe reaches $250,000, his marginal income tax rate will rise to 39.65. Social Security: 12.4% (Obama plans to eliminate the SS cap above $250K). Medicare: 5.4%. If his state has income tax, he'll pay 60% of the state rate (after federal deduction on state taxes); @ 5%, he'd pay 3%. Effective rate of 60.4%. Joe would be allowed to keep $39.60 for each $100 he earns over $250K. If you think that's fair, you're consumed by envy and hatred. Which are what really motivates Obama's idiot voters.

[mrbreeze24]

Obama's website says he doesn't support uncapping to 12.4% but does want to tax 250+.

[Miserenz]

Man, he nailed Joe's question, Joe will be better off

[LowBudgetReviews]

That plumber was very respectful and simply asking some very relevant questions. Obama handled it very Presidentially!

[raulitech]

help the small guy out, don't let the big guys have too much of the market because they are the ones that get control over it and abuse it for too much profit.

[nonamelef]

So, let's get this straight. Joe works, Joe works hard. He works so much harder than other people that he makes more money. So, let's take Joe's money and give it to others that didn't earn it, and probably don't even work? WOW. That is called redistribution of wealth, that is textbook socialism. How does that incentify anone to work harder, to try to do more with their lives/ Stupid, and it didn't work anywhere else in the world. Only clueless sheeple that want handouts want that.

[Miserenz]

Ah I think that you should watch the video, if you have watched it then watch it again as he has explained why your stance is WRONG. As for Socialism not working else where, try FINLAND, SWEDEN etc. My own country was the most socialist and we were number 2 for standard of living, then you captialist took over and we dropped into the high 20 range, socialists back and now we are 19.

[itsMEpt123]

isn't it time for a change vote McCain/Palin

[BapticostalFreak]

we need change i agree we need a hunter in there that knows how to feel dress a moose:D we need someone as the leader of the free world that has fought in wars and been a P.O.W. what is sad since 9-11-01 we have been kept safe and President Bush has gotten no credit for it but if we had gotten attacked he would have been the first one blamed; but hey have sex in the white house and deny it and your considered the greatest president but keep us safe for over 7 yrs and your one of the worst.

[Scaredycrat]

Even worse yet is that hey forget we have had a democratic controlled Congress for the last two years, but they don't want to hear that. They also don't want to see the proof about who really caused the housing disaster. Barney Frank and his gang. The same ones that will lead the congress uncontested if Barack wins.

[lv3ddip]

Hey Joe!

Do you want redistribution of the wealth? vote for McCain/Palin. Our Taxpayer money for the big corporations in Wall Street.

Do you want to spread the wealth? so you can make more than your freaking 40K a year you're doing right now. Vote Obama/Biden

Douche Bag!

[jeffkeegs]

If you make over $250,000, you can vote for Mac. The rest of us will vote Barrack

[jeffkeegs]

The plumber is a plant!!!!

[CRJarvis]

and if your part time then you going to get laid off for sure. i know alot of people that work part time because they can not and Do not want full time. (kids school or helth problems.)

[CRJarvis]

Get Out There And Ask The Business, that have 10 Employees or more (not talking about family ran businesses that only have family working for them.) I have been asking them every day, and there all talking about the Obama's tax plain is going to make them lay people off. Some are plaining on laying them off the day he gets Elected, so they can save up the money they need to for when his new tax plain passes.

[cdidato]

This Clown JOE. Is Complaining about $1500.00 in Additional Taxable income for the year, NOT including the 50% TAX Credit on the 250,000. thats like 45k in Payable Taxes. CPA please check my numbers.

[Bassplayingboy]

39% instead of 36% tax - that is $7500 more in tax for $250k.

[nitagirl614]

If he taxes the company that I work for then I am FUCKED! I want to keep my job!

[nickmackone]

malignantpoodle, let me guess, your not a hard worker, your on welfare and you dont care to be rich because you expect the Government to help you?

[alibabita79]

Obama should be a fucking car salesman.

[malignantpoodle]

Because I'm against lowering taxes for the wealthy and against removing tax cuts for the middle class that must mean I'm on welfare?

...and of course we all know, the only people that would agree with me are on welfare.

Let me guess, you're a bimmer driving prick that will never be satisfied no matter how much money you make? Nah, that's giving you too much respect.

[nickmackone]

Im sure you sit back and drink 40's in the front yard untill the mail truck goes by with your government check,

No you fuckin idiot why do people that make more money to help the poeple who dont make a lot of money? Every one has a choice in jobs.

[malignantpoodle]

"to help the poeple who dont make a lot of money"

You moron, the money that rich people pay in taxes doesn't go to helping poor people. It's about making those that are able to pay do so.

That you pay more in taxes at $250,000/year doesn't mean you're helping out someone that makes less.

Do you really think that the government taxes rich people and gives poor people the money? Fucking retard.

[malignantpoodle]

Nevermind that "Joe" turned out to not even be a licensed plumber to begin with.

[malignantpoodle]

Social Security tax is 6.25% of up to $92,000 in income. Income after that is not subject to the 6.25% social security tax.

Therefore, this money that goes to welfare recipients is not coming from the demographic that Obama wants to tax. As a matter of fact, the rich pay the least percentage of their income towards social security. So this notion of the rich helping out the poor is ignorant talk.

[Bassplayingboy]

Obama's tax plan is trickle up poverty.

[Americanbeast14]

there is nothing more unequal then the equal treatment of unequals

[nickmackone]

Every freeloading piece of shit that thinks wealthy people should be taxed more, should not be Americans. "Tax Credits" are nothing but welfare, And there should be no welfare at all. There are to many people that want something for nothing.

[malignantpoodle]

no tax for the wealthy and remove tax cuts for the middle class?

Good thing you'll never be in a position to make such decisions.

[nickmackone]

malignantpoodle, let me guess, your not a hard worker, your on welfare and you dont care to be rich because you expect the Government to help you?

[escueladeleyi]

I am just sooooooo glad that I work for cash, so all of this taxes and where the taxes go does not even affect me.

I can just sit back and watch others fight over it on YouTube.

LOL*

[xeopi]

I like how this unedited video has 227 views but ones that are edited to make Obama look elitist or a communist have more...

ugh...I wish we would just have a media that actually reported one candidates said and let people decide for themselves.

[malignantpoodle]

This guy is talking about a 3% tax increase on revenue above $250,000 is going to keep him from buying the business? Give me a break.

"Wah wah, I make $270,000 a year and I don't want to pay taxes."

Give me a fuckin break.

[Americanbeast14]

wow

[andesteg]

How come people find it so hard to see that the extreme difference between top and bottom in the US is causing a lot of problems for the society? If you increase the taxes on people making a lot of money and decrease the taxes on poor people then you decrease the space between top and bottom. That would make USA a country that stands for good values such as helping people in need.
