It's Obama magic I tells ya!

Yay, I get $1000.  Yay!

My wife tells me that the Obama-Biden Tax Calculator has all the girls at work in full swoon.  First, how does Obama get away with calling it a "tax savings, " since 30% of the people who will get at least $1000 don't pay tax to begin with?   It's a spending plan.  But this is what I really don't understand.  Isn't this really a Bribe-O-Meter?  How does it differ from me walking into a bar and offering $1000 to anyone who votes for Obama?  I know it goes on, to some (lesser than $1000) degree, but it's illegal.  Obama is doing it in full public view.  As we learned yesterday, just by letting the Bush Tax Cut expire, which Obama has said he will do, a married family, filing jointly and earning $75,000 a year will see a tax increase of $3,074.  If you own, say, a small pizza joint, your small business tax rate of 54.9 percent will be  the highest level since the Carter Administration. Senator Obama has also said that he will raise capital gains taxes from 15 percent to 20 percent. If you cash in your IRA. or change investments, you'll pay an additional 33% tax on retirement profit. Finally, Obama's biggest tax targets are American corporations.  What do we know about  taxing business boys and girls?  That's right.  They raise prices to cover the cost.  And what if the higher prices cause them to lose business, and fold, or leave the country?  That's right. No income for you. This is the real Obama-Biden Tax Calculator Close, spin, and grit your teeth.
