And by the way, I will never make more than 250k a year at the rate I'm going...it's not personal. It's the principal of the thing. The American Dream is stolen away. When I was in Las Vegas last weekend, I saw a woman win $43,000+ on a slot machine. I wonder if Obama wants a disproportional piece of that as well...

Our country is more than taxes. It is about jobs that we are hurting on now. Some will say well give more tax breaks to big oil and this creates jobs. Instead of giving our money to China and the middle east, why not help get us off oil and the middle east? Why not put that money into other alteratives? Money needs to be going that way, not big breaks to big oil. As long as we stay a slave to Saudi and are in bed with them, they can treat us anyway they want to and we look the other way. It's not right to say if you want a job, then go to the middle east. We want jobs in our country.
As we need our infrastructure built up and our borders protected where we can be safe, this adm has bankrupted us. We have to borrow money from China to even try to help ourself and our country. This isn't the American way. Billions of dollars for contracts that was in Iraq just vanished and they say they have no trace of it. It just floated away and no big deal. I happen to think that is a big deal. Is that values you teach to your kids? We don't teach that where i am from.
As the Iraqi gov want's to put timetables on us to get out as they are already dealing with Iran. Is this really what we wanted? An Iraqi gov being run by Iran? Funding Iraq will be like funding Iran then, if that happens. I don't think that is smart. Mission wasn't acomplished and isn't now because we can't make them people live like us and have the same laws. Our troops did the job and a fine one but now what? Look at the healthcare they do not get when they get back here. This isn't right.
This election is important about faith and values and what is right and what is wrong. Not slogans. So if taxes is your main thing and you feel that is all that needs to be addressed, vote the way you feel about taxes. I happen to think this election is about alot of stuff and as bad of shape this adm has us in, no one will get us out of this fast. It will take along time and someone with substance that loves this country and really tries to do right. I like buying things American made, that my fellow Americans have made. I like helping them. That is where my values are.
