There are plenty of jobs right now, and the unemployment rate isn't high relative to where it has been in the past (25% during The Great Depression, etc.).

I'm not really even talking about the big CEO's and shit, the people ranking in the top 1-2% of the population when it comes to income. I'm talking about your middle to upper-middle class people, mostly. There's way more of them then there are extremely rich people. I can't vote for somebody who, in a capitalistic economy, is going to tax the shit out of people when they start businesses, create jobs, and generate capital, so that it can be transferred down to the low income people (the people who aren't creating jobs and generating capital).

Taxes as a whole are a socialist concept, but drastically raising them is socialist and it's bullshit. Obama may win this election because there's a lot more bottom feeders in this country then are providers, but if the taxes do get raised by a lot you're going to see the people generating capital leaving or jumping through every loophole possible to avoid paying as much taxes as they're supposed to.

I know you know what you're talking about, so I'm hoping you can at least understand why I'm not down to ride with Obama's tax policies. I didn't make this thread to beef with anybody, I just wanted to see if I was the only person here planning to vote for McCain. Right now it's looking like I'm standing alone, so oh well hahaha.



yeah, i misunderstood you at first..but i got you now..very valid points too. Im with obama....but i definately don't disagree with your decision to go with mccain.

and you know me mime..it's never anything personal between us.

and i don't understand why other people take politics so personally.....BUSH IS LEAVING....that's all that really fucking matters at this point

some valid points. but....really, why would Obama tax higher on people who are gerneating revune? if anything he'll tax the corpartions more, not the small end business's. N by taking money and giving it back to the 'bottom feeders' more money will be spend on things, pushing the value of the dollar back up. hopefully lowering costs of things.

i see your points, and i was for Mccain in 2000. So i'm not a Mccain hater, but after he went full blown Republican, he sure did loose his way

Why is voting a waste of time? This election we're looking at two very different candidates in my opinion. I would like to have Some control over my future. In fact I worked for Obama this summer so I feel as if I've done something to secure my life. Why is there no reason to vote?
