Mr. Obama will also propose in the budget outline he releases on Thursday to use revenues from the centerpiece of his environmental policy a plan under which companies will have to purchase permits to exceed pollution emission caps to pay for an extension of a two-year tax credit that benefits low and middle-income people.Not only is O and Co. claiming the revenue extorted from businesses to do business will be targeted toward a new specific spending program (revenue neutral) but then they have decided not to put that revenue towards the most obvious choice (global warming/green energy yuck yuck) but towards revenue loss programs, ie. welfare.
If anyone gets a chance to question a major member of the media then ask them how revenue raised from carbon credits should be used to pay for the revenue/moral loss of welfare.

The US government collected the largest taxes ever under Bush because his tax cuts increased the economy.
I guess we’ll see if the democrat’s philosophy of doing the exact opposite will yield the exact opposite or the exact same.

You guys all miss the elephant in the room. Maybe Obama’s not as dumb as he seems.
What if hyperinflation triples prices and wages...then $250k will be simply middle class? It’s coming, but we will still have indexing to keep up with inflation? Big question.

If I was rich, I’d simply quit and work at McDonald’s or something part-time. Why should I bust my ass for the gubmint? I’d make as little taxable income as possible.

Obamas Plan for Budget Would Shift Burden to Rich If the top 5% are already paying 50% of the income taxes, how much more should they pay?

At least there’s one nearly silver lining to all this. In the future when the rich nations of the earth are mentioned to give more than they already do to some useless cause, they wont be talking about us.
