Bailouts, Taxes, Democrat 60 Senate Votes?

Published by allykat under obama, taxes Edit This

The bailouts just keep coming… When are they going to stop? Companies are just going to keep putting their hand out for more money. The government needs to stop giving them money. They do not even ask the people what they want.

We need to get back to a smaller government who’s focus is on the national security. Let the people handle the economy. They know how to spend their money the best.

Our free enterprise system must be protected and taxes must be lowered.

If Obama gets all 60 Democrat seats in the Senate, then taxes will be raised, capital gains taxes will be raised, fairness doctrine will occur, more social spending programs, nationalized health care, illegal aliens citizenship and benefits, the right to bear arms will slip away….

Senator Saxby Chambliss must win in Georgia! The senate must not get the 60 votes, thereby allowing filibuster to end and Obama’s radical left agenda to rule.

You can donate to The National Republic Trust to help get Senator Saxby Chambliss elected in Georgia!

Spread the Wealth from Your Heart Not by Force!

“He who is kind to the poor lends to the Lord, and he will reward him for what he has done.” (Prov. 19:17 NIV; see also Prov. 14:31 and 29:7

God wants all of us to be responsible and all of us to help the poor. Our indivdual responsbilities to help the needy should not be placed on the government.

There is a big difference in the government forcing you to “spread the wealth” around and you willing to give out of your own heart.

Forcing someone to do something is not about freedom and choice. And God is all about freedom, choice, and love.

God wants our hearts in it. He wants us to form a relationship with the poor people. And to help your neighbor or friend in need. Giving to your church or charities have been proven to help the poor better than the government. Charities are better at helping people one on one than the government.

The government has proven to be unsuccessful in helping the poor. Programs like social security are not working. The government has been heading down the wrong path for a long time by performing the roles of the church and charities. The church, government, and the people need to realize this more. And Obama’s socialist plans will make the world a worst place not better. People know how to spend their own money better than the government.

 “In 1964, we started the War in Poverty. We have spent over $10 trillion to combat a poverty rate that stood at 14% when the “war” started. It is still at 14% and now we redistribute over $1 trillion a year. In other words, despite all of that redistribution, despite the loss of all our freedom, despite all of those taxes – the policies and programs produced very little results - and yet we continue to enact such polices almost without critical thinking.

In light of that, in my view, it is time we understand the genius of our Founding Fathers. We must renew their Revolution against confiscatory government and their rejection of Obama’s fundamentally flawed thinking before our civilization falls by the wayside of other failed socialist experiments”(politicalvanguard.com).

How does forcing a rich guy to give his money away make him want to work more for the fruits of his labor when it will just be taken away from him? Also, the rich guy became rich by providing a service or helping people, so why would he want to help more people if he was going to be punished and forced to give up his money?

And yes, Jesus does want us to pay taxes. Jesus said, “Give to Caesar what is Caesar’s and to God what is God’s.” Our money is not ours. It is Gods. Everything comes from God, but that does not mean that you must give everything to help the poor. There is no strict set of rules of how much you have to give.

God said there will always be poor no matter what. And we should help them out of our hearts voluntarily.

Also God never said that money is evil. He wants people to strive to make more money and spend their money wisely. Greed is evil, not money itself. To love money more than anything else and more than God is sinful. God wants us to be compassionate, generous, and to love one another from our hearts.

“Each man should give what he has decided in his heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver”[NIV](2 Corinthians 9).

Vote for Obama for Higher Taxes and More Spending!

Published by allykat under obama, taxes Edit This

Obama will not help the economy he will make it worse. It could take 10 years to undo what he wants to do, some things may not even be able to be undone. Obama wants to “Spread the Wealth” and spend, spend, and spend! He chooses where to spend your money.

Have you heard recently that Obama said he will not raise your taxes if you make under $200,000? What happen to $250,000? And then Biden said that it is now $150,000. That is because Obama wants to spend obscene amounts of your money for all of his many programs. He has not explained how he will get all of this money for his programs. His Trillion dollar health care plan, “Free” college education, $500 billion dollars for faith based summer programs for poor kids, more than $800 billion dollars for the UN to give to poor countries on top of what we already give, his energy plans…..

Do not forget he voted to raise taxes on people making only $45,000 a year. Obama will raise taxes on the middle class, he has to for his special programs. And the lower class will be hit the worst, they will still have to pay the hidden taxes in products they buy, because business will have to pass the high taxes onto the consumers. He is already showing you that he is changing his mind about who to raise taxes on, get ready for more of this kind of change if he becomes President.

An Obama Presidency will mean higher taxes, high spending, and less jobs!

More Hidden Taxes and Less Jobs with Obama’s Plan!

Published by allykat under john mccain, obama, taxes Edit This

Obama wants to raise taxes on all products. Do you think things are expensive now? Obama wants to make it harder on the poor that are barely scraping by. Obama will take money from successful people and do whatever he wants with it. Taxing the “rich” really hurts the poor. Sure he will give them a welfare check, but that is only short term and the raising product prices will not help. Obama will raise the prices of all the products that you need, thereby hurting the poor the most!

Do you know how high taxes are in all the products you buy and how much you pay in taxes for that item? Remember, big corporations like Walmart do not pay taxes, they pass it on to the consumer. Walmart will not mind Obama’s high tax plans very much, because many small businesses will have to go out of business, so less competition for them.

Here is a link to thread in a forum that explains the hidden taxes in products we need:

  • 30% of bread price is taxes
  • 40% of beer is taxes
  • 82% of cigarettes is taxes
  • 40% of air plane ticket is taxes
  • 54% of gasoline prices is taxes
  • 43% of hotel room is taxes
  • 25% of restaurant meal is taxes
  • 38% of pizza is taxes
  • 72% of liquor is taxes
  • 50% of phone bill is taxes
  • 35% of a soda is taxes
  • 36% of tires is taxes

Expect to pay more in taxes for products with Obama’s plan. Where McCain wants to lower everybody’s taxes, so these taxes on products may stay the same or lower.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NmZ3o0Di7Go

McCain’s plan will also create jobs faster than Obama’s:

Center for Data Analysis (CDA) analysts used an analytical tool that permits taxpayers and policy­makers to see the side-by-side economic effects of the two plans:

  1. By 2018, McCain’s plan, which makes the Bush tax reduc­tions permanent and lowers the tax rate on cor­porate profits, creates an additional 3,426,500 jobs. Senator Obama, however, raises taxes on many of the economy’s key investors and busi­ness owners. Job growth under his plan for that same year is lower, at 1,576,200.
  2. By 2018, GDP is $320.7 billion (after inflation) higher under the McCain plan than under Obama’s.
  3. Using the same model to evaluate both plans, our analysis shows that a family of four will have an average of $5,138 more in disposable income under McCain’s plan, and $3,631 more under Obama’s. This average increase in disposable income is the combination of lower taxes on the average family, higher employment, and increased growth under both plans.

Keep in mind that this analysis does not include the candidates’ spending plan! Obama wants to spend and spend, except on military and he does not explain how he will pay for all of his spending. McCain wants to spend a little too, but not nearly the amount of spending plans as Obama. McCain wants to cut many programs that are not working too. Limiting our military is a very dangerous thing especially when so many people want to bomb Americans any day.

Vote McCain 2008 Freedom Prosperity Peace!

Obama Wants to Spend!

Published by allykat under john mccain, obama, taxes Edit This

Now I don’t mind paying the necessary taxes, but where is the line drawn? Obama will have to tax everybody more in order to pay for all his programs. Higher taxes hurts the economy, it does not help the economy.

Here is McCain’s new radio ad, I think it is right on!

Obama wants redistribution short term goals with taxes. McCain wants economic incentives and long term goals with taxes. Now it was nice to get the stimulus checks, but that was a short term goal, that small check does not help in the long run.

Do you wonder where all the jobs are? Well, if we stopped taxing companies so much, they would be able to hire more people. “20 years ago, the U.S. led the world in cutting the corporate tax rate to make our economy more conducive to job creation,” noted Tax Foundation President Scott Hodge at the CompeteUSA kickoff. “Since then, almost every other industrialized country has cut its corporate tax while the United States has stood still, and as a result, the U.S. corporate tax rate is now 50% higher than the OECD average”(taxfoundation.org ).

If you want to keep more of your hard earned money then vote for McCain!

“Senator Obama provides tax relief directly to individuals, without making major changes in how the tax system interacts with or affects individual and business decision making,” explained Carroll. “Senator McCain provides broad tax relief and channels most of it to businesses, with the notion that the best way to help workers is to encourage investment and ensure that the U.S. remains competitive in the global marketplace”(taxfoundation.org ).

Why Tax Successful People More?

Published by allykat under economy, taxes Edit This

Why do so many democrats want to steal from successful people to give to people who are not motivated to work harder?

If people run into unfortunate times then they should go to churches or charities for help. People should have the freedom to give their money to the needy voluntary, their money should not be stolen from them.

Stealing money from others and giving it to someone else, teaches people to not work hard. And if the Government keeps stealing from successful people that worked hard all their lives, these successful people will stop working so hard. We all will. We will all try to suck the system, of course there will not be a system anymore, because no one will be working anymore. We will all work as little as possible to get by. Why work harder, your money will just be stolen from you if you do.

Taxed to Death!What kind of message is this sending to people? Overtaxing anybody is punishing people who deserve the money they work hard for. Taxing tells people to stop trying to be successful. Do you ever want to be successful? I sure do, I still have the dream and I do not want it stolen from me.

In America if you work hard you can be successful, you just have to find your niche, but it can be done! Obama’s plan is a road to no success. We will all be the same, all be poor, and will not be able to dream anymore.

I am for hope though, hope that we will all strive together to succeed through more freedoms! Tax cuts for everybody will help everybody to succeed!

Vote McCain!

Barack Obama wants to raise the taxes for oil companies, which will just cause the price of gas to go up. If Obama puts a cap on gas prices, then the oil companies will decrease production. If gas companies cannot make a profit then there will be no supply/gas!

Barack Obama wants to raise the taxes for social security. Obama wants to raise cap on payroll tax for 3% of earners over $102,000. He wants to raise $97K cap on payroll tax, which will be a $1.3T tax increase. Obama wants to stop any effort to privatize social security. He also wants to allow illegal aliens to have social security.

Barack Obama is against all of Bush’s tax cuts
on corporations. He is against extending tax cuts on capital gains and dividends. He is against supporting the permanence of estate tax cuts. The wealthy will pay more taxes. He wants to develop a strategy (more taxes) to eliminate extreme global poverty. Barack Obama believes that the last thing we need is a permanent tax cut.
