LOL - no desperation.  Obama wants to take our money and give it to the poor.  Redistribution of wealth.  Socialism.  Some may call it Marxism.

I never knew 250k was poor.....Hell, I think those in that bracket should be hit as well. 250k is a very comfortable life.

Most I have seen from him helps the HARD working class, not the welfare class.

Maybe you have trouble reading.  Most small business owners make over 250k.  250k isn\'t that much depending on which part of the country you live.  You should know this...

Yup, I have lived in 2 very expensive areas and I lived comfortably with 70k. 250k is very comfortable if one lives within their means.

Those same small business also get a shitload of writeoffs that make it much, MUCH easier for them to profit AND default on.

It depends on what your definition of middle class is as well.  Living in an apartment is fine on 70k in a place like Chicago.  Try buying a home in Redmond Washington while making 70k.

Socialism is good.

I guess the US isn\'t patriotic enough. Probably a bunch of gays unwilling to make the next step. And it prevents terrorists.

If you can\'t be comfortable on 250K, then you really did to rethink how you live.

That\'s what poor people say. I want to own a yacht, a chalet in the mountains, own a condo overlooking Central Park, buy exotic sports cars,etc......the property and sales taxes should cover your pinko communist asses. But you want to tax me more?

Get a job. Build me a condo. Or move to Kalifornistan.

Exactly...as far as the Obama article goes,...luckee already responded in a way that reflects my views, in the sense that we are already giving alot to these countries in general anyway and it\'s nothing new. I think when Obama was making those speeches overseas he was generally just trying to say that america needs to be the leader in the world again.

OMG NO!!!!!

Why the hell does everyone think its ok for the government to dip their hands into the citizen\'s pockets?  We need to reduce the government, not empower it.

People are entitled to whatever they make.  I\'m a firm believer that we should have a uniform tax code that taxes everyone equally.  We need to eliminate the income tax and just have a national sales tax.

By redistributing wealth the government is saying... ok you bottom feeders, you can live beyond your means now thanks to the wealthy.

Rather than taxing personal income, which assumes that the government owns individuals\' lives and labor, the federal government should be funded through excise taxes and/or uniform, non-protectionist tariffs. (ala Ron Paul method)

God liberals make me angry.  Stay out of my pockets.
