Taxes don't JUST come out of your paycheck..... you need to look at what you'll be paying for that Obama has put into place. He knows the average Joe will actually just look at their paycheck, not even thinking about where they're gonna be screwed in other places, i.e., taxes! The ONLY way to keep taxes down is to limit government spending..... how do you think that is going to happen when Obama has increased the size of government by leaps and bounds in just a few weeks?

How do you get up when you've been taxed to the

Right, Sam! If businesses are taxed more, they are

Tax break? I have been hearing we will all be taxed.
I have been hearing on the news, what about the middle class? Well, we will be taxed.
Aren't you sick to death of being taxed to
subsidize the wealthy? How 'bout congress getting $4700 in COLA to "subsidize" their housing? They don't need mansions to live in while doing their jobs in Wash, DC. They don't need the top to be driven by chauffers. They don't need to be treated to banquets and dinners because they do their jobs in Wash. Congressmen constantly say they are serving the American people, or are they getting rich off the backs of the middle class? IMO, it is the latter. Or, how 'bout subsidizing oil companies who have made outrageous profits? Those subsidies should come to an END, NOW! These handouts go both ways!
At one point in my life, newly divorced, I worked for minimum wage, raising two young children. Although I was very frugal, it was extremely tough making rent, utilities (old junk car, no car payment), and food. One night, I broke my elbow, could not work, had no money except child support. After hospitalization, called Welfare Dept, could not receive food stamps because I "made too much money the month before." End of story as far as Welfare Dept was concerned. So, my mom and dad helped me out with groceries for my two kids. So, as far as welfare handouts, I received none. So, in my experience, I don't know where your b*tch is!!
So now with my taxed insuring kids -- I can supervise their lifestyle, eating habits, etc.
Insurance premiums for kids only are not that expensive, adults can go without if they want their children to have insurance. Why should I pay for that. So now, if my tax dollars are going for that, can I go up to an overweight kid and start monitoring their diet, can I watch what they eat, make sure that they get enough exercise, not be exposed to second hand smoke, etc. Because if the government starts to provide everything for these kids, pretty soon they will be telling everyone what to feed, how to exercise, and everything else. Why don't we just hand over our paychecks to the government and they can just take care of us.
