In just one year or so….
Remember the election in 2006?
Thought you might like to read the following:
A little over one year ago…….
1) Consumer confidence stood at a 2 1/2 year high;
2) Regular gasoline sold for $2.19 a gallon;
3) The unemployment rate was 4.5%.
Since voting in a Democratic Congress in 2006 we have seen:
1) Consumer confidence plummet;
2) The cost of regular gasoline soar to over $3.50 a gallon;
3) Unemployment is up to 5% (a 10% increase);
4) American households have seen $2.3 trillion in equity value evaporate (stock and mutual fund losses);
5) Americans have seen their home equity drop by $1.2 trillion dollars;
6) 1% of American homes are in foreclosure.
America voted for change in 2006, and we got it! Remember it's Congress that makes law not the President. He has to work with what's handed to him.
My favorite quote of the Messiah..."My friends, we live in the greatest nation in the history of the world. I hope you'll join with me as we try to change it." -- Barack Obama
Taxes...Whether Democrat or a Republican you will find these statistics enlightening and amazing. www.taxfoundation.org/publications/show/151.html
Taxes under Clinton 1999:
Single making under 30k-$8400
Single making under 50k-$14,000
Single making under 75k-$23,250
Married making under 60k-$16,800
Married making under 75k-$21,000
Married making under 125k-$38,750
Taxes under Bush 2008:
Single making under 30k-$4,500
Single making under 50k-$12,500
Single making under 75k-$18,500
Married making under 60k-$9,000
Married making under 75k-$18,750
Married making under 125k-$31,250
It is amazing how many people that fall into the categories above think Bush is screwing them and Bill Clinton was the greatest President ever. Why do the people that fall into these categories that support Obama want this to happen so much?
This is like the movie The Sting with Paul Newman; you scam somebody out of some money and they don't even know what happened.
You think the war in Iraq is costing us too much?
Read this:Boy am I confused.
We been hammered with the propaganda that it is the Iraq war and the war on terror that is bankrupting us. This seems ridiculous when you look at everything else.

We need to take our country back and preserve what we have fought for.
We ain't perfect but we sure are something special!
Our ancestors fought wars over the same things most people are asking the federal government to do. The American Revolution was fought over taxation that pales in comparison. What do you suppose Thomas Jefferson, James Madison and Ben Franklin would think about the democratic republic they help to create.
I vote that we bring Tho. Jefferson back to set Washington DC straight.
Our southern ancestors were not so far removed from their fathers and grandfathers of the Revolution, to allow the growth of the federal government defile their rights. The Civil War may be disputed over many causes and all of them have relevance, but the growth of the federal government and diminished state and individual rights were at the base of it all.
I can not believe, myself, how the government has grown in my short life. I am now watching as people give up their rights and freedoms, in order to get something from someone else. The redistribution of wealth in this country is on a roll and may grow even more depending on one day in November. This is going to change the face of the free market economy forever. People who are wealthy will adjust and will have no taxable income. The will not invest in new business. They will not create new jobs. They will not create new products for the economy. They will close small businesses and people will loose jobs. The common man who strives for something and wants to create and achieve will finally give up on a dream of owning his own business. He will do this not from lack of desire, but from lack of reward. Why would a man or woman give up time with their family and time for themselves to create something, just to have the government take most of their reward away and give it to someone else.
Who do theses people, who want, think the taxation on the rich falls on. Sen Obama answered this question during a debate. He believes anyone who makes $250,000.00 per year is rich. Does this seem that he is catering to a segment of the population? Can anyone guess what an average small business owner might make per year? My guess would be around $250,000.00.
The truth of the matter is that about 50% of Americans pay no income tax in effect. Many Americans actually come out ahead on income taxation.
This leads me back to the Fair Tax plan, as most things economic usually do. If one wants to talk about economic stimulus, this would be a good place to start. This may not be a perfect plan, but it is dang sure better than the one we've got.
Please go to http://www.fairtax.org/ and read and do the fair tax calculator to see what it means to you. The plan allows taxpayers to keep their income and decide how much they spend and how much they want to save. Imagine bringing home what you actually make each pay period. You could actually get more, because your employer might pay you what they are actually spending on you each pay period.
