I will again make it as clear as I can. I am NOT for taxing the rich only. I don't believe thew rich are job creaters any more you are living in a different world today. trickle down is OFFENSIVE to me. I got a job because their was a NEED. We need a middle class. My vote is simple number ONE Which canidate is the MOST LIKELY to get us in another WAR, Which canidate will cut DEFENSE? We spend so much money on defense, we have a NAVY that is 16 times larger than any civilized country on the planet. We are over reacting in fear. We have not overpromised the poor, we simply have spent the money in fear. To blame the economy on a 30 year school teacher pensions is idtiotic Jim! Jim I have made a living wprking for wealthy people in their pursuit of leisure time, so I am for people being rich. Please Please stop the madness and claiming I blame " rich folks", never once have I said that. The way you make up deficits in a family or in a government is simply find more income, and save more expenses. I am for a tax increase on everyone. Did you hear that I am willing to pay more taxes, and I am middle class. My one personal gripe is the taxes are never LOW ENOUGH for coservatives. Let me ask you when your house is on fire and the firemen arrive and put it out do they send you a bill? No we need government. terryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07127226626629333403noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4616542941395272083.post-23626395185631377962012-08-11T07:46:22.711-07:002012-08-11T07:46:22.711-07:00It is hard to say that our problems come from bein...It is hard to say that our problems come from being overtaxed. That is just silly - we are at 60 year lows and have lower taxes than other developed nations. <br /><br />The public pension issue is a serious one. A lot of cities will need to negotiate a better deal. In the future, I expect we will see more defined contribution programs and fewer pension plans.Baxterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16542863255802738652noreply@blogger.com
