‘...Bottomline: if you are middle class or above, get ready for a helluva financial raping come April 15....’
exactly. and all these cheering people who believe that repealing the Bush tax cuts ‘for the rich’ is a good thing will probably change their minds when they have to pay more for products or they lose their jobs cause businesses and Corporations have to pay much higher taxes. but.....by then, too late....Pres Obama will have 4 years to completely destroy America.
or maybe I’m just plain wrong....maybe IMANUTJOB will like Obama so much, he’ll send us free oil. Hey, free oil, a FREE chicken in every pot, Free health care, Free education.....Free lobotomies.....oh, did that happen already???
What strikes me as ironic is his statement that he’ll listen to main street and not Wall Street. Does he not realise, that people in Main Street, including us “proles”, have investments in Wall Street. I guess that he has never heard of mutual funds and 401Ks. Does he not know that many blue collar folks have pensions that are invested in Wall Street? If he squeezes Wall Street, then Main Street will also feel the squeeze. Wall Street also provides the capital for mom and pop to start and build their businesses.
Maybe he does know all this. Maybe his “change” is to end “man exploiting man” and bring all production under the control of the state. Yup, taht’s real change, comrade.
Mamybe I should write a letter to Barry telling him that I am one of the eeeeeevil “rich” who benefitted from the tax cuts. I am not a millionair, but a single dude who makes a lower middle class income. I carefully saved and invested some of my money in a retirement plan. A plan that is invested partly in eeeeevil Wall Street.
