SMART REMARKS: Obama for the win Options

[wrsny337]

Get your checkbook out, your taxes are definitely going up. I can't wait.

Have a great day!!!

I don't make $250k;
I'm not rich.
Even so, I have little problem with paying my share of taxes--except for Iraq.

You'd think folk would complain more about Dubya's $10 billion/month Iraq price tag.
To date: $568,695,908,375
Me and my spouse's contribution to date: nearly $10k

What's that I hear???? Oh, it's the chickens coming home..................TO ROOST!!!!!!!

Nahhh...have your moment in the sun. When democrats have this kind of power (both houses and the WH)...they famously fall on their faces...let the games begin..

Have a great day!!

Looks like the Dow isn't too enamored with Obama either..

Have a great day!!!

How fickle.

Actually, it starts over 75k http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=..._6c6PySZ6U51RdQ
Do the calculator, under 65, single, no dependants, you get a whole lot of bupkis under O's plan. Under McCain (according to NewsDay, its' a $0 change for everybody) The biggest change is for those who make less than 10k a year. A whopping $673. I didn't know my vote was worth $600 if I made so little. (keep in mind, at this salary, you get a kickback from the earned income credit of $4,000 depending on your status). This is paid by those who make more than $125k, they get taxed an additional $2225 and as your income exceeds that, it increases exponentially, 2m/year, another hundred and ten grand, that's an extra 6% on top of what they already pay.
Making these points are moot, he's been elected, and the law hasn't changed yet, I'm sure the plan will change.
Depending on how much it changes, I think you'll see more support for the "flat tax".

Do some research and think.
If you're complaining about paying taxes, think.
We all pay taxes--all of us.

You're no better than anyone else.

Yes we all have to pay too many taxes and have to work too hard to make the money to pay them... when you start a business you have to work twice as hard to make the money you want to make, and someone should realize that you should not be penalized for that.

Someone who makes 250k with three kids is not rolling in it if they have overhead. Then when you leave the money behind for the kids that was taxed at a higher rate to begin with Obama will take another 50% inheritance tax... so you spend your weekends, holidays, and evenings away from home to provide and then you get to enjoy 25% of it in the end. It's ridiculous... if someone wants to make more money they need to work for it not stand in line... look at your golden boy "Poor black man whose grandmother did..." rags to riches right... "all it takes is determination...YES WE CAN" take a note from your fearless leader.

Wow!!! Two days in a row the DOW tanks over 400 points. Wall street really can't stand our new President-elect...at this rate the DOW will be in negative numbers by the time the annointed one takes office. No worries though, all he has to do is lay his hands on the dow, bless it, and the clouds will part, the sun will shine and the DOW will heal itself...

Have a great day!!!

Wall Street is bracing for the release of the Labor Department's October employment report today. Stocks went into a tailspin again yesterday. As investors remained worried amid predictions of disappointing October retail sales and weak outlooks from both Cisco and Toyota, the Dow plummeted 443 points. - 11/07/08

conservatives...

Great post. Obama will raise a whole new group of lazy people and, sad to say, most will be minorities and they will be living off of those who worked hard to get ahead. Everyone who wanted "change" needs to remember that "change" is not necessarily a positive. I have no problem if he wants to raise taxes, but do it for everyone; stop discriminating against one class.

Likewise, wake up and realize the folly of the entire idea. Someone making 250 in Manhatten is barely getting by. Is it really fair to tax them the same as the guy making 250k in Lubbock, TX?

The sad thing is that a total moron could be in office the next four years and that same total moron will get credit for turning around the mkt even if nothing gets done. The mkt moves in economic cycles and now we are in a bad one. Four years from we will likely be in a good one. Obama will get the credit and he will have nothing to do with it.

Do a little fact checking on the history of the DOW dropping after EVERY Presidential election.

[mnepats52]

obama election ...

my post was in response to an earlier post..blaming obama's election for the drop in the markets..

now you say...they are up because obama?

at least you on the right are consistant...

who knew after the election might be more entertaining...

than before?

i thought tax cuts solve everything....

and deficits don't matter

and now...bush is just a victim of the invisibile hand?

gop: its never because of us...
