Comment: I guess Obama has a United States "MASTERCARD WITH NO SPENDING LIMIT" He is will us we United States Citizens for his "Bankrupt Mastercard Bailout" If you say yes, where do you think the money is going to come from. From us in higher taxes. I have never seen such a money blowing President. I dispized Bush, but is looks like the golden boy when it comes to Obama running us into debt by promising the moon...and we will pay for that to. I guess he wants a spot on Jerry Springer. from Pensacola,Fl by Flower
Comment: We NEED to implement the Fair Tax and kill the 16th Amendment, completely and forever disband the bloated and corrupt IRS. We would have FAR more control over our own tax liability and keep government out of our pockets and lives. from Cantonment, Fl. by Jeff
Comment: I don't necessarily believe the middle class needs more tax breaks; as much as I do believe that the rich should start paying taxes, not 'earning too much to be taxed'. What's fair is fair. If the average Joe or Jane Doe can plod along working at minimum wage or pennies higher, and manage to pay taxes-----why/how is earning too much money a justification for not paying taxes; or evading paying taxes while the rest of us do, with the threat of going to jail if we don't. from Mary Esther, FL. by Tom
Comment: It seems everytime a "tax break" for the middle class comes up it always benefits our congressional members and higher paid salaries. What about the seniors living on Social Security or other Retirement Funds? They are the ones that worked their lives and paid into the Social Security Fund to begin with. from Ft. Walton Beach, FL by Mildred
Comment: i guess the only one who do not support this are the ones still pushing for this "trickle down" economy...i.e. the corporations..."ditto heads"...etc... from p'cola fl by h
