According to Obama, a person making $250,000 (or family…..he doesn’t want to say that) does not currently pay their fair share. It’s a fact that in most states with income taxes, and having a house requiring property taxes, and counting Social Security taxes……..those families or individuals are paying nearly 50% in taxes. But Obama simply wants to hide this fact, so that the lesser earners will adopt his mantra and try to nail the higher-earners even more. For Obama, it’s all about stealing even more from higher earners, AND getting more stupid voters. It’s a fact that the economy would be doing alot better if taxes weren’t nearly 50% for so many families. Not to mention, those families could save for retirement and pay for college alot easier…………but Obama doesn’t care about facts……..just votes. What an awful type of politician to have in our great country. And he’s just one of hundreds of Democrats in office in D.C. who preach this quasi-socialism. It will be our ruin if they keep being successful with it……..and keep being successful with preventing drilling where we have the most reserves!
