Lush lifestyle? I live in a one bedroom apartment, and the lease on my X5 costs less per month than my personal health insurance. If I had to insure all of my employees, I would have to shut down my company and go out of business as the cost would be higher than we pay for rent on our office.

then maybe you shouldn't be in business

But I do understand why you want socialist, I mean socialized medicine....so your package looks competitive.

I guess the rest of us business owners who actually cover their employees deserve a special cookie

I like the change idea obama has.

It seems that for you to be the president, you have to have served in the military. How does this make you a better president? It also seems that the president is there to fight wars and thats all.

Some people say they dont know where the condidates stand. You have to realize that these are all promises. I am going to....I will.....

H ave you ever had a boss who doesnt know anything about the operation? Thats why they hire people. And even mccain with all his military and political experience still needs to talk with advisors before making any major decision.

Its a stepped system, the percentage is lower the more you make. Don't forget the loopholes

Lets see, 28% of $50,000.00 = $14,000

Now hmm, 25% of $500,000.00 = $125,000

It should be stepped, rich people pay the vast majority of the overall taxes garnered by income tax.

Of course the whole USA we hate taxes thing isn't new, I believe we kicked that concept off in 1776
