    ... from an economic standpoint?

    And the follow-up question. How many of you who have done this on your own steam, by working longer hours, making sacrifices and donating your sweat and effort for economic success are happy the spread the wealth king will soon be in office?

    I'd ask how many of you punch clock, 9-5 workers, and those of you who are too lazy to get a job are happy. I know y'all certainly are!

      Moneyline I could never be as awesome as you.

      If your inner soul crumbles from the emptiness supporting it, just rest easy at night on your satin pillow covers knowing that you will always be better than Bread.

          small business here to , been sinking like the titantic this year. However last year was golden so getting by on saved money from last year. but in my line of business( construction) you ride the good waves and try to keep your head above water when the tidal wave comes.
          cant wait for Obama to save the world and be feeding my kids steak again instead of hamburger helper

            Obama's tax plan adversely affects people "making" 250k or more. Is the OP in that category?

              The problem is that is before deductions, also he will be lowering that figure, they are already talking about it.

              It sucks

                  You aren't smart enough to make more than $45,000 a year, I really doubt you have anything to worry about.

                  Except the big bad black man.

                    The small differences in income tax rate is so insignificant for the vast majority. How do the rich convince people to care so much about this shit?
