I know a lot of people making $250k+ a year and not one of actually ends up paying anywhere near 35%. My father, for example, owns a business that makes about $3 million a year and only pays around 15% after everything is said and done.
Well, that's that

Nobody except rock stars and dumbasses ( are they really the same? ) actually pays 35%. High teens to low twenties is really common for a high six figure income - just like it is for a low five figure income. We could lay off a hell of a lot of accountants with with a flat 20% tax.
Double QFT below ... I've never done that to the same person. Well said RG
Congrats to Obama from this angry pecker. Now that you have the most powerful position in the world, it's time to ditch your UofC advisers Ayers and Khalidi. Go hire you some better brains that have a cleaner history.
... and roll up your fucking sleeves, you've got your work cut out for you.

Fuck you, we're still here and the I part of "we" voted for Chuck Baldwin. Lesser of 2 evils my ass!
The President is far from the most powerful position in the world.

HAHA glad to hear it. I voted for Barr. Obviously the Ron Paul talk was going to die down after he dropped out, just was curious if anyone pussied out. Like my mother, who ended up voting for McCain...momfail.
I was just thinking about upgrading tonight. LOL. I usually pay 10-15% (that's 5 figs out of my pocket) with all the write offs. I have a feeling its going to at 25-40% after write offs in 09. Accountants are going to be making bank in the next 4 years. That could be a niche site, "slapthatgovernmenthand.com"
Since I've got a little girl who will be going to college within the next decade, potentially a few big things did come out of today for me.
1. Arkansas voted in a lottery to fund in-state college tuition
2. Obama has promised $5000 every year to every kid (yes I'm to be holding him to that)
Sounds like I'll be paying for her bills instead of tuition in a few years. This is great news if it holds up as my brother got $2200 the 1st year Tennessee's lottery kicked in. I think the university of Arkansas was $5800/year this year. That sounds like it will close to wash out.
... I'm trying to look at positives here so I'll go on.
For all of his shortcomings, and there are many, Obama has the opportunity to be somewhat of a mascot for America. Foreign countries/organizations will feel relieved, almost vendicated, that "We the people" have such a bleeding heart for their cause that we elected Obama. There might be a little less hostility to our country and in the long-run, be the thing he is remembered most for.
Also, since the minorities believe that we're no longer a racist nation, we can get rid of affirmative action, civil rights lawsuits and all the "blacks only clubs" like the UNCF & the ACLU.
The stats coming in show that 95% of ALL blacks voted Obama. Some states that have as high as 91% white population went to Obama. I'll let you draw your own conclusions on those numbers.
Ok, bad choice of words .. how about the most influential

I stuck to my guns... voted for Baldwin because of the Ron Paul endorsement. I was thinking of writing him in but that would have been a complete waste because it wouldn't have counted at all.
Come on, US troops don't rape that many people, comparatively speaking.
The hippies are generally not protesting about the deaths of Americans who either signed up for that shit (although I do pity the poor brainwashed fuckers), or get paid stupid money to do jobs that Iraqi's should be doing.
It's the thousands of Iraqi's dying each year from the chaos the US and UK have created there that's the problem.
High murder rates in the US are another issue entirely... linked to gun ownership? Ineffective penal system? Poor education? Poverty?
1. the majority of those are a result of other Iraqis and 2. thats not looking at the big picture improvement as I posted above
Correction, anyone with any kind of business finds ways to write off expenses and avoid tax. Having a business gives you more tax-avoidance avenues than being an employee.
TBH I just wanted to throw this in. Democrat that voted for Nader! Woohoo!
Bonus: I was literally 2 seconds from doing a write-in for Rick Astley.
