Obama and McCain Tax Proposals - washingtonpost.com
August 25, 2008
For those that claim to vote on taxes, you are better off with Obama if you fall under the 111,645 range. Even then you don’t find a increase for nearly $500k.
And remember, for their representative tax brackets, Obama supports give himself a big tax increase while McCain proposes giving himself a huge break.It is one thing to suggest something and not need to apply to you, but another to suggest those that benefit the most from the system we have to pay more back into it and cut a check yourself is standing up and being a leader.
Considering the economic policy McCain has decided to mirror, this just might show much about other intentions, if not for himself but those of his ilk.

The Washington Post never ceases to surprise me with their slanted presentation of the “facts†and their failure to address the real issues. They are always presenting these dumbed down quotes and pretty charts that are regurgitated by the media across the country as though they are words sent from above.
Are Americans that ignorant that they will vote on who is going to give the middle class a supposed tax break while they are indirectly taking it from behind with an actual tax increase as a result of higher inflation and increased government spending? Where do we think the govt is going to come up with the additional revenue to cover runaway spending. The other problem with this article is that they fail to mention what the net tax change is as a result of both candidates plans. The increase in taxes on the so called rich (who already pay a disproportionate amount of overall taxes) will not come close to covering the proposed taxes cuts on the middle class.
