TJ, about the fiscal thing? As the current tax sheets read, on the single bracket, anyone who makes more than $164,500 a year is being taxed 33%. What exactly is a "little bit more" and whats his new % for people making 250k+? Now, someone making that kind of money has probably worked hard or really went out on a limb somewhere to be in that situation, (school loans, buying a business or equiptment to start a business) or its a possition that has been handed down from a family member or longtime worker. My point is, these people are the ones that make GREAT and give hope to younger generations to try to acheive in something. A little bump in taxes would be close to 50% tax. How in the world do you think thats fair? By increasing taxes on these people you take the drive out of people to grow. They, like me will do anything possible to stay under that line. If that means not hiring more people, then so be it. Just as long as Im not giving more of MY HARD EARNED money to the government that uses it for things that are destroying our country from the inside out. Im a small business owner and make nowhere near these numbers, and after seeing the sheets I dont want to. Maybe its different for me because I have to write a check every three months to them instead of having it taken out of paycheck and never seeing it, I dont know. But I dont think you have the right to look at someone as a yearly value instead of a hard working person who might have put everything he owned on the line, like I did, to be in the position to make that kind of money. I do respect and thank you for your service and I just ask that you figure your income gross and your percentage plus 10%(OBAMA factor) and see how much you would have to write a check for every three months for taxes. I call it (REAL TAXES) cause it is your money, and you probably worked hard for it too.
