What 40 Dollars Means To You

Share what losing 40 dollars a paycheck would mean to you and your family on WhiteHouse.gov or on Twitter with the hashtag #40dollars.
If Congress doesn't act, taxes are set to go up on 160 million hardworking Americans, and the President believes that lawmakers must prevent this middle class tax hike without drama or delay. For a family making about $50,000 a year, the payroll tax cut amounts to about $1,000 a year, or about $40 in every paycheck.

That should be "your life is worthless."

You should know how to properly use "your" and "you're" to avoid looking like a total dickhead.

BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA WANTS TO TURN AMERICA INTO ANOTHER BANKRUPT CALIFORNIA !

No surprise that California, the richest but most liberal state, especially in fiscal term, will be the first state to go bankrupt. Now Californian socialist model with its highest tax rate, strictest enviromental protection rules, and generous welfare and health care system is copied by Obama with his costly Obamacare covering 12 milliions illegal immigrants who will be naturalized under Obama immigration reform.
