want to know about the tax plans?


Here's two good articles: The Wall Street Journal's "Obama's 95% Illusion" and "Obama's Magic". Economists will tell you that history has shown when you raise taxes, you hurt the economy. When you lower them, the economy recovers. But you knew that.

** addition: If you think that I'm only focusing on the right to life issue in this election, there's more to it than that. When 100 expert economists speak on why Obama's economic plan won't work, I listen. Read it here.

"It was exactly such misguided tax hikes and protectionism, enacted when the U.S. economy was weak in the early 1930's, that greatly increased the severity of the Great Depression."  Are you scared of his ideas yet?!

And while I'm at it, Biden got away with a lot of wrong facts in the debate, while Sarah Palin was made to look foolish in the media. Guess again all you media hounds... Sarah Palin knows what the job description of the Vice President is! Joe Biden, though he's served with 8 Vice Presidents, still doesn't know!! FactCheck.org even forgot to mention some things about him (are we surprised?!). Read more about Biden's lack of political knowledge here.

Your passion is wonderful, Beth! I can't agree with you more...isn't funny that we haven't seen any of Biden's LOADS of dirty laundry hung out to dry in the media, but Sarah Palin has been harrassed non-stop? My parents live in DE...Biden has PLENTY of dirty laundry!

Here's another article about the economic plans. I couldn't help noticing the WSJ articles were in the opinion section. http://www.economist.com/world/unitedstates/displaystory.cfm?story_id=12342127

Thanks for responding back with more insight. I agree that socialized health care creates lots of problems in the countries that have it. I hope as a country we can find a solution that works better than the current one without making things worse.
