Redistribution of wealth

[editec]

What is really pathetic, is that there are some videos of Honest John proposing the same type shit and being called a socialist by one of the crowd from a past McCain.

This is another bogeyman to replace real issues like the party in charge for the last 8 years has screwed the pooch and won't accept the blame.

We have nothing to fear...but the fearful themselves!

How'd that work out for us in Oct 1929?

And, given how much we've cut taxes in the last 8 years, how has that worked out for us in Oct. 2008?

The tax cuts and the Great Depression have nothing in common. It's like getting into a massive car accident and noticing that your no longer has the new car smell.

Actually this I agree with. I seriously doubt cutting taxes some extremely minor amount on the middle class is going to jumpstart the economy.

Having an extra $750 or an extra $1000 x millions of people will.

Neither do I think that raising taxes some minor amount on the wealthy is going to solve the debt crises OR jumpstart the economy, either.
Cadidly, I don't think either candidate has a plan that will actually fix the economy.

Obama is raising taxes on the rich by............................................. 3%. Look out Great Depression!

I don't know who is in charge of the McCain campaign, but they're forcing John to be someone he's not and it's kind of... it's kind of sad to be honest. I miss John McCain 2000.

and ONLY for the amount they NET over $250k....their taxes are less on the first 250 grand net, and benefit from the tax reductions on the brackets covering the first $250 k obama's plan gives....

a stimulus is a catalyst, meant to jump start the economy, not meant to sustain it....but a domino effect

the most effective stimulus is given to the poorest, 67% of this money goes in to the economy immediately....the LEAST effective stimulus is to the wealthiest....the GAO and CBO have done studies on this....and this is their analysis results.

Aren't any/all taxes ultimately redistribution of wealth?

Doesn't Sarah Palin tax the oil companies and spread the wealth to the citizens of Alaska? Isn't that socialism?

What is it called when Bush uses tax payers money to build a baseball stadium and then sells the team/stadium for a profit that he keeps?

Stadiums bring tons of outside money into a community if managed properly.
