I will be keeping what little money I have left to myself instead of spending it profusely as usual and keeping services workers employed and well tipped. Not anymore. They are going to steal my money to give to themselves or others that never worked for it, I will withhold it from our economy. Too bad good honest working people will ultimately lose their jobs. They can get new one though I suppose with ACORN cheating Americans out of good honest elections etc.

Well, that is going to put a damper on the idea I had for a small business.
I am so sick of the endless warfare against those who take risks and strive to, or have been, successful.

This is all pretty simple. They tax income not wealth. Keep your income under the 250K mark until this crap goes away. If you make more than that you need to start setting up a deferred income situation. If it is not income you do not have to pay taxes on it.
I will pay down everything so that my income is free and clear. No credit cards, no new cars, and no housing upgrade. I will sit fat, dumb, and happy, on a lower income that actually contains more discretionary dollars until they get rid of this clown.
I will hire my children and pay them well so that I can put my assets in their hands before the death tax takes it from them. I will max out every untaxed gift I can legally give them every year.
If they still mess with me I will be living in another country running my business there.
President barry, I will spend a thousand dollars to keep from giving you a hundred. This type of tax revolt will do one of two things. It will either start a class war between those who have worked for their own money and those who want other people's money, or it will start state by state secession that will end up breaking this country into several separate republics.
The stock market has reacted to each of barry’s speeches by going further down the road toward a total crash. The market is capitalism and it does not like the imposition of socialism. It confirms this by dropping each and every time our new president makes a public speech. I will do what ever I have to so that I am not legally forced to give my hard earned money to the minorities in this country who refuse to get educated, quit their criminal activities, display reproductive accountability, and get a damn job!!! I started with nothing, joined the military, served my country, and was medically retired due to line of duty battle injuries. I used my GI bill to get an education while raising two daughters alone and went on to build a thriving company. I don't even want to hear about how anyone was "kept down" because of their race or never given a chance. Every one of them had the same chances I did. Save you speech for someone else who just might believe you. Then get off your butt and get a job. If the black community continues to listen to the Shaprtons and Jacksons crap they will never have anything of their own unless they got it from someone else who earned it. I feel that our ship of state is not on an even keel and it is time to either put it on and even keel or sink the SOB. Every great nation has ended it's sower stage. Each one of them have self destructed by trying to tax the wealthy for the good of all others. Not one great nation in our worlds history has survived with it's greatness and financial power intact. The USA is just next on that list. Our socialist congress and president have truly given us change. They are changing us into a has been world power.

It’s sadly Bush chickens coming home to roost, to a large degree. Him being unable to control spending to control the budget just meant that Democrats have an easy time racking up the taxes again in the name of “fiscal responsibility”. Meh, as if.

Tax cuts financed by deficits = Future tax increases waiting to happen.

But hey, don’t you think the department of education could use a few extra billion?

I suspect our $7 a week (pre-tax) will not begin to cover the increased cost of energy, food, transportation, not to mention the whammy when the Bush Tax cuts expire.

Also, the recent pork bills severely underestimate the costs entailed by Obama’s social programs.

In the end there are two classes: those who work for the government and those who work to support the government. He is going to make us all slaves. Ironic, given what he ostensibly symbolizes.

First of all $250k is not "rich". Michelle made OVER $300k in her last "job".

Second many ultra rich supported 0 so let them pay - I have no sympathy.

Third set up several companies to deal with your income. Move some offshore to protect your assets because asset confisaction is coming soon to a town near you.

Many businesses, the wealthy would feel heavier burden of taxes under Obama plan

Next up? Firing employees no longer allowed.
