True and false...

True - Obama plans on keeping Bush's tax cuts which will not increase the payments from the average middle class family...

But here's the false part...Obama will ALSO increase taxes (death tax/capital gains tax/inheritance tax/payroll tax) to pay for his National Heathcare system and other social programs which will result in a net INCREASE...

Saying I won't tax you for "A" sounds nice...But if you include the taxes he'll pound the middle class with "B, C, D, and E", you'll find that "A" sounds a helluva lot less promising...

This shows you know NOTHING of Obama's plan. Good effort though. Nice way to mindless spew non-facts. They (top economists/factcheck) have proven that it's a net decrease for 95 percent of Americans.

Factcheck missed on this one. Sen. Obama's plan includes rolling back tax cuts. How is that any different from raising taxes?? It also includes increases in corporate taxes, an expense that gets passed on to the consumer. His tax plan will burden taxpayers more than Sen. McCain's will by a substantial margin. If you only look at the tax increases direct impact on the taxpayer, then FactCheck is correct, but as soon as you factor in the loss of the tax cuts and the impact of the increased corporate taxes, it's dead wrong.

Well, there's a proven fact that their facts don't jive...

Guess what?...LESS than 95% of Americans AREN'T PAYING TAXES in the first place!...A helluva lot less actually...

How can you have a "net decrease" on $0?...

Phraseology? We're going to argue this? My gawd you are desperate to try to prove a point. You can't cut zero. This is true. But you can cut anything above zero. It's not that flippin complicated... Those making taxable income between $1 and $250000 will get a cut in tax liability...

__________________

Once again...That's true ONLY in the case of tax cuts already in place...Obama said he'll drop the ceiling (By the way...It's NOT $250000...It's $250000 PER COUPLE, so it's actually $125000 per PERSON...A little fact that sounds bad, so Obama doesn't say it )...

But if you include the OTHER taxes Obama plans to raise, the amount saved on ONE tax won't even it out...

Example...

Obama Capital Gains Tax Hike Would Hit N.Y. Hard

Telling the public they'll get a tax cut of $5 doesn't mean much when he wants $10 in return for other things...

Obama's going to Clinton level taxation... You know... a period of time where the Democratic economic vision created the largest budget surplus in modern history and the people were doing great economically... Of course people are going to bitch, cause that's all they can do is use fear. Economically speaking he's not doing anything new... He's just using proven methods to restore our economy. Something GWB hasn't had the nuts to do.
