Default Obama and 100% Taxes

What if the government taxed every American at 100%, and then they gave each person in the US an equal share of the money. Forget that some put in $500,000, while others contributed only $300, each person would get an equal share (maybe $15,000 a year) back from the government. How long would the neurosurgeon keep going to work at 2:00am, when he/she was paid exactly the same wages as the Burger King employee? In the Soviet Union, everyone's paycheck looked pretty much the same. Factory workers had no reason to work hard, because achievement wasn't rewarded or even noticed. Under the Obama tax plan, achievers won't pay 100%, but America will take a giant step towards SOCIALISM. (The upper tax bracket under Jimmy Carter was 70%!) Before you vote on Tuesday, think about how expensive equality will really be.

Default Re: Obama and 100% Taxes

Yeah, I remember reading about the 100% tax proposal in Weekly World News.

I often wonder if Republicans understand the tax policies of the people they support.

I'd love to hear comments on the following two policies.

1. CARRIED INTEREST TAXATION - this is the loophole that enables the wealthiest hedge fund managers in this country to pay 15% taxes on their income. Go ahead and look it up. Barack Obama opposes it, John McCain supports it. If you're a hedge fund manager benefiting from this multi-billion dollar tax break, more power to you, but if you're not, let me know why you think it's fair.

2. 15% DIVIDEND TAXATION - Let me run a little scenario by you. You have a great year, you worked your tail off, and you earn $1 million. Meanwhile, Paris Hilton's shares of Verizon paid her dividends of $1 million in the same year while she drove around in her convertible Bentley. Should she pay less than half of the taxes on that dividend income than you? Barack Obama thinks this dividend tax break should expire. John McCain does not.

So tell me again how Democrats just want to take all your money, and tax you to death. Because if that's what you think, you're getting conned.

I'm supporting Obama because the current Republicans only want to tax work, not wealth.
And that's why wealth disparity in this country is hitting record highs.

Russia is lot wealthier than the current 10 trillion debtor nation,the crumbling US!! after 8 years of socialist, Marxist rule of Bush!!!
700 billion of bail out of big banks??? this is the biggest socialist action that US has ever witnessed in the entire birth of this country.....from 452 billions dollar surplus in 2000 to 10 trillions in debt in 2008!!!! Thanks to Bush, we are now officially a socialist country in the western hemisphere!!!! 90% of the time MCain supported this transformation from wealthy capitalist country to 10 trillion dollar debt Socialist country!! my 40% of 401K plan has vanished.....talk about redistribution of wealth, 750 billions from hard earned middle class Americans to the 5% of corrupt individuals of this country to bail them out....... and nothing in return!!! We were brutally robbed, sodomized of our rights, privacy rights, wealth, etc during the last eight years of socialist & KGB rule!!!

Cool Re: Obama and 100% Taxes

These replies are spot on. The problems with this country are 8 years of GW(AKA Cheney) and a do-nothing Congress. Obama is smarter and more capable than McCain(3rd from the botton at the academy). The one concern I have is Afganistan. That is a country where victory is impossible. Much worse than Viet Nam.

Think what you want..my spouse sets on the Board of Directors for a large company & for months they have been meeting on a plan of action if Obama wins or McCain wins. And let me tell you an Obama win is not what our country needs right now.

They are anticipating the Obama tax increase for the company & already looking at all area's within the company to make up for the increase. It looks a little like this
1) increase cost of good or service to consumer (you & me)
2) let go of people
3) health care coverage less - employee pay more
4) 401k /pension plan always an option (decease amt to match)
5) less expansion

Its #5 thats the worse, because we need big companies expanding right now to create jobs. Thus people working means they are out spending $$ in our economy & getting our market place back on track. Wither you like it or not we need big business expanding, not cutting back even more..If Obama is elected to office get ready for the stock market to tank even more.

I know that neither candidate are perfect, but we need jobs being created. I don't think government handouts make people feel safe enough to go out and really get the economy going. People want to work & know that a consistent pay-check is coming every month.
Its pretty much reality..sorry

Russian leaders have mostly ignored their environmental pinheads, and have authorized the harvesting of billions of barrels of oil from the North Sea. As a result, much of Russia's recent wealth has come from huge oil profits (Russia is now the 4th largest oil exporter on the planet). You want to see American become a wealthy nation again? Start drilling for more American oil, and stop importing $700 billion/year of crude from nations that hate us.

I appreciate what you're saying, but Obama's economic plans are not sustainable. Unfortunately, the Democrats have preached equality for years, but many of their supporters are still poor. Welfare hasn't worked--nor will it start working if welfare families get a little more money from the producers each month. If the feds took 100% of the Hilton family's money today, and re-distributed it to the poor, long long can that strategy last? The number of rich people in America is finite. Also, don't forget that if you take all of the Hilton family's money, that they too will join the welfare ranks, and someone else will have to take care of them. Would that make you happy?

You obviously understand politics and have an understanding of where he stands unlike those who will or have voted for him. Unfortunately for us...I do think he will be our next president. The man definitely believes in Socialism. So much for your next bonus check. We all know where that is going.

You are a moron. The socialism is already here with bailing out of banks with 750 billions and and then nationalizing them.....similar to France! do you watch CNBC? and Bloomberg?

Last eight years were more like socialism than capitalism, with freedom was completely taken away.....everyone lost money except the top 5% just like in Russia, France etc
I lost 40% of my 401K

Millions of Jobs were gone, with big corporations shifting operations out of US and pocketing the profit with no investments in the US......despite huge tax cuts for these corporations in the last eight Bush years???
How low can we go??

So what? Who cares? What are you folks thinking? Obama may be the lesser of two evils. McCain has said repeatedly that he would come after big pharma. Did you NOT HEAR that?

Our problem is NOT the government! Our problem is that we don't have any NEW medicines that are UNIQUE. How can we expect people to pay massive co-pays on a product that has no heroic characteristics or advantages? And please don't bore the shit out of me with the "countless advantages" of Lipitor. Only the truly unique drugs that do special things DESERVE high co-pays. To expect anything else from a lackluster, me-too product is just plain being a moron. Just keep your head up your Pfizer, live-in-the-past ass and hope it will all go away. Meanwhile, the great companies are getting off their asses and inventing new drugs! No new drugs, no new success. Plain and simple.

Or they could hire more people and invest more in R&D
employee expenses, and R&D expenses are TAX DEDUCTIBLE !!! hence it reduces tax burden.

He he he he.......are you senile??? What expansion? did the big corporations expanded during the last eight years despite all the tax cuts by Bush and his cronies??

What did Bush tax cuts do in the last eight years?? We lost millions of jobs and the corporations went outside the US......and the management pocketed all the profits...NO investments in the US

And the Dow Jones is down over 400 points today... So much for your notion of the markets supporting an Obama presidency. And good luck getting any pussy when you get laid off from Pfizer and have to move into your parents' basement. On the bright side, I hear that McDonald's is hiring (mmmm, French Fries!!!).

Do you know how much oil this country actually has of its own? It would blow your mind. They found 3 hugh new sites in Alaska and another in Montana (I believe,maybe another state) Why don't we drill for it? Well, first there is the environmentalists and second, I just don't KNOW. We should do what Reagan did. He refused to send the Arabs food (of which they can't grow themselves) in exchange for oil. In truth, I believe we should start drilling our own.

Winning the election is just like graduating from college (you remember, just like June last year for you)--it's just the beginning. Why don't you wait to LOL at least until the "whitewash" has dried on Obama's facade.

Why was NBC predicting riots in the streets if Obama lost? Where is the out-cry today about butterfly ballot irregularities, and voting machine problems? Who is suing to overturn the election results? Do you hear anyone talking about how racists kept people from voting on Tuesday? So who is the real author of hate and fear?

Instead of drilling, I think the Obama team is actually suggesting that cows be fitted with methane-trapping equipment. Methane can be harnessed to power blenders and hair driers, running on their lowest speed settings. This won't solve the world's energy programs--but it's a start in (and from) the right direction. Also, solar power panels can be mounted to cars, allowing drivers the luxury of being able to drive 6.75 miles between charges. Light up the bong--it's charging time!

Maybe not in four, but he sure promised it and I believe he will do is best to make something successful. Your quote was a little bit extreme. But wait until they take from your paycheck. And most of all, it wasn't just, he worked with a Democratic Congress. Remember Obama is a Democrat, let's see what he and Congress gives us up the ya ho. How much did you make in salary?

What the hell are you talking about? My kids came home from school the day after the election and told me all the black kids were running through the halls uncontrollably, yelling we have a "black" President. My kids were terrified. On the news the next day, all they talked about was that he was our first black president. Nothing about his platform was mentioned. Their were those who simply voted for him because he was "part" black. Most don't even know that he is not a full blooded black man. I can almost bet that there would have been some civil unrest had he not won. And by they way, he only won by 1% in the popular vote. Do you understand popular vs. electoral. The people didn't vote him in. KNOW THE WORD ELECTORAL?

Now a lesson in history for you? Obama isn't the first "part" black president. Their was a man named John Hanson who had as much "black blood" in him as Obama. He was of Swedish descent. Now while he wasn't "President" he held this country together before George was our 1st President. I understand he did a good job and I'm NOT saying Obama won't as well.

Sounds like they are running for the hill. Conservatives are really playing the victim card. by the way these threads sound, their whole world is coming to an end. Funny how they sound so much like the people they claim play the victim card all the time and conservatives have despised (most minorities) for so long. Maybe they need a hug?

I think you misunderstood me. Imagine the elections as a baseball game. The republicans just lost. As good sports, we shook the other teams' hands, and are looking forward to playing another day. If the democrats had lost the baseball game, they would have trashed the dug out, torn the infield apart, and probably burned the American flag. Then some bimbo from the evening news would comment on how much the republican team cheated, how uneven the field was, how baseball is a racist sport invented by slave owners, etc.
Remember when the Clinton team left the White House? They trashed the place, took the "W" key off of most of the computer keyboards, etc.

I often wonder if Republicans understand the tax policies of the people they support.

I'd love to hear comments on the following two policies.

1. CARRIED INTEREST TAXATION - this is the loophole that enables the wealthiest hedge fund managers in this country to pay 15% taxes on their income. Go ahead and look it up. Barack Obama opposes it, John McCain supports it. If you're a hedge fund manager benefiting from this multi-billion dollar tax break, more power to you, but if you're not, let me know why you think it's fair.

2. 15% DIVIDEND TAXATION - Let me run a little scenario by you. You have a great year, you worked your tail off, and you earn $1 million. Meanwhile, Paris Hilton's shares of Verizon paid her dividends of $1 million in the same year while she drove around in her convertible Bentley. Should she pay less than half of the taxes on that dividend income than you? Barack Obama thinks this dividend tax break should expire. John McCain does not.

So tell me again how Democrats just want to take all your money, and tax you to death. Because if that's what you think, you're getting conned.

I'm supporting Obama because the current Republicans only want to tax work, not wealth.
And that's why wealth disparity in this country is hitting record highs.
simple solution dooshbag become a hedge fund manager or Paris Hilton ......ohhh you don't have what it takes? That's what it means to be a capitalist and if you choose to be a crappy pharma rep THATS YOUR FAULT !!! ! !. Don't hate appreciate!

How does one become a souless vapid whore with a rich daddy? Don't hate the player, hate the game. 95% of us hate the game...and WE just changed the rules. We declared class warfare on 11/4.

That 95% of us will be getting tax cuts was a flat out lie. If 40% of Americans pay NO taxes (and actually get earned income tax credits to boot), how can Obama reduce their tax burden? Of the remaining 55%, the tax exempt number dropped from $250,000 down to $120,000 as Obama closed in on 11/4. I've even heard projections that anyone making over $42,000 a year will pay more taxes. Welcome to class warfare Obama style.

Thanks to Bush, we are now officially a socialist country in the western hemisphere!!!! 90% of the time MCain supported this transformation from wealthy capitalist country to 10 trillion dollar debt Socialist country!! my 40% of 401K plan has vanished.....talk about redistribution of wealth, 750 billions from hard earned middle class Americans to the 5% of corrupt individuals of this country to bail them out....... and nothing in return!!! We were brutally robbed, sodomized of our rights, privacy rights, wealth, etc during the last eight years of socialist & KGB rule!!!
Uhhh...you're sadly mistaken. We were trillions in debt before Bush....under Clinton there were a couple years of ANNUAL budget surplus but there was still a multi trillion dollar debt. ANd that surplus had nothing to do with Clinton....it was thanks to a stock market bubble that burst while Clinton was still in office. Many forget that Bush inherited a recession from Bubba. As for the rest of your silly rant, well....yawn, heard it all before. Maybe you should call Noam Chomsky and have lunch.

Back in 1961, if you were making $4,000 a year, you were middle class.
We should go back to a structure like that until we pay the national debt down to pre-Reagan levels.

It's a lot like popcorn in theaters now--the small has become a medium. Just re-frame the definition of middle class, and you can grow those ranks to any number you want.

Taxes are like the miminum wage. Everyone (except employeers) wants it raised. But there is a wage that is too high. If $50.00/hour is too much for the mininum wage, then pressure groups, and not the economy, are dictating wages. If employers had to pay $50/hour, then the cost of doing business would be too high, and they wouldn't keep their doors open. Ultimately, the employee who pushes for a wage that is not tied to profits, will soon stop making even the mininum wage.

Is anyone surprised that the bailouts haven't worked, and that PE Obama will have to raise taxes?

There is a difference between winning by a narrow percentage Vs large historical percentage (52% largest mandate ever)

No fool will question this victory and "trashed the dug out......"
The Bush and cronies looted, and plundered this nation, PERIOD!!! It is nothing to do with Republicans and Democarts here.....Bush was a unique republican......that's why lot of republicans didn't agree with him and his cronies and jumped ship and even voted for democrats.........Scott McClellan, Colin Powel.......etc etc

I totally agree--that's why we needed another Reagan. Unfortunately, we elected a Stalin instead.

the only reason obama won by large margin was a)"black" b) promised more freebies to more people than any other candidate

i'd like to see all you destructocrats take all your people and see if any of you could actually make a profit. obama's used to living off other's money - he's done it all his life

hey, by the way how did he pay for harvard? or did he pay for it or did someone else?
