A good look at the McCain and Obama tax plans.

Anyone on my friends list who makes more than $2.87 million a year is not going to like the Obama plan.

These numbers come from a non-partisan group.

(Yes, I'm home today. I'm running a fever, still feel like crap, and have other issues.)

But, see, this just proves that McCain is right: Obama is raising taxes on the middle class (since in McCain's world the middle/upper class split is at $5 million annual income).

Personally, I am above median income enough that I expected Obama's plan to increase my taxes (which was OK), and I am delighted to find I would get still get a tax break.

I would LOVE to have enough income to have an Obama Tax Increase! XD
As it is we pay next to nothing because most of our income is Social Security. Which McSame is making some noises about taxing, so he can give the rich more tax cuts.
