INTERESTING DATA JUST RECEIVED ON TAXES

Please spread the word.
This is something you should be aware of so you don't get blind sided.
This is really going to catch a lot of families off guard. It should make you worry.

Proposed changes in taxes after 2008 General election:


CAPITAL GAINS TAX

MCCAIN
0% on home sales up to $500,000 per home (couples) McCain does not propose any change in existing home sales income tax.


OBAMA
28% on profit from ALL home sales

How does this affect you? If you sell your home and make
a profit, you will pay 28% of your gain on taxes. If you are

heading toward retirement and would like to
down-size your home or move into a retirement community,
28% of the money you make from your home will go to taxes.

This proposal will adversely affect the elderly who are counting
on the income from their homes as part of their retirement income.

DIVIDEND TAX

MCCAIN 15% (no change)

OBAMA 39.6%

How will this affect you? If you have any money invested in
stock market, IRA, mutual funds, college funds, life insurance,
retirement accounts, or anything that pays or reinvests dividends,
you will now be paying nearly 40% of the money earned on taxes
if Obama becomes president. The experts predict that 'Higher
tax rates on dividends and capital gains would crash the stock
market yet do absolutely nothing to cut the deficit.'

INCOME TAX

MCCAIN (no changes)
Single making 30K - tax $4,500
Single making 50K - tax $12,500
Single making 75K - tax $18,750
Married making 60K- tax $9,000
Married making 75K - tax $18,750
Married making 125K - tax $31,250

OBAMA (reversion to pre-Bush tax cuts)
Single making 30K - tax $8,400
Single making 50K - tax $14,000
Single making 75K - tax $23,250
Married making 60K - tax $16,800
Married making 75K - tax $21,000
Married making 125K - tax $38,750
Under Obama your taxes will more than double!
How does this affect you? No explanation needed. This is pretty
straight forward.


INHERITANCE TAX
MCCAIN 0% (No change, Bush repealed this tax)

OBAMA Restore the inheritance tax

How does this affect you? Many families have lost businesses,
farms and ranches, and homes that have been in their families
for generations because they could not afford the inheritance tax.
Those willing their assets to loved ones will not only lose them to
these taxes.

NEW TAXES BEING PROPOSED BY OBAMA

* New government taxes proposed on homes that are more than
2400 square feet
*New gasoline taxes (as if gas weren't high enough already)
*New taxes on natural resources consumption (heating gas,
water, electricity)
*New taxes on retirement accounts and last but not least....
*New taxes to pay for socialized medicine so we can receive
the same level of medical care as other third-world countries!!!

I come from a blue collar family in Detroit, generations of Democrats. I would not vote for Obama if my life depended on it. I have never been a fan of the Clintons, but I'm taken back with the ease at which they were painted racist by the Obama Campaign and Jesse Jackson Jr. I simply won't vote for a race baiter.
And now (we) know....the REST of the story.....:D

Who died and made this Gerald Prante the end all be all to tell wether on not somthing is true what has he done. any publishings?

Oh wait found some!!!

His work has been featured in the New York Times, Atlantic Monthly, the Economist, Wall Street Journal, Washington Post, USA Today, and the New York Post.

Ok so he leans a little left I guess he can try to deflate to in order to make BHO look better.

What else is there?

Gerald holds a bachelor’s degree in economics and political science, and a master’s degree in economics from Southern Illinois University Edwardsville. Gerald has also taught economics at Southwestern Illinois College and East Central College

Hummm... some one is looking for a job as the new charmen of the fed!!! Plus he is from the same state "I better help BHO out or I won't get a chance!!!"

Guess I reserve the right to change my mind. I was going to vote for McCain back then and could not, as I said, imagine myself marking the box for Obama. There has been a lot of water under the bride since the, the first drop was his choice of Palin for VP. It was that day that my thinking began to shift. Don't worry, I don't imagine my vote will move the measly electoral votes that South Dakota holds.
 
Smitty, you are entitled to believe anything you want.

Can you show me where in fact Obama has stated these tax policies?

If he hasn't stated them then someone must be a mind reader.;-)

Time for me to go kill some pheasant, IN THE RAIN, freak'in weather!

Toooo Shay dont know how to spell that LOL

But I did hear him say recently that he (BHO) would do away with the porpertiy tax credit for people who own more than one home!!!

I serving in the Marine Corps and see renting as throwing away money, I have bought a house at every duty station and rent them out once I leave. I am able to do this because of the tax credit I get on the interest paid on all 4 yes I said 4 homes, I say home becuase one is a mobile-home RV if you will. Now say what you will about McCain owning 8 houses but I don’t here him talking about taking the credit away. Since when should we punish someone for owning 2 pieces of the proverbial American Pie or 4 or 8?

Do you think it is fare to hurt someone who has done a little hard work and got a house or two or eight?

Smitty,
Thanks for your service to our country. These types of e-mails are 99.9% flat out lies. Please check facts. Should I believe that because your in N. Virginia that your a communists because I received it in an e-mail or TV/Radio sound bite? Should you believe that because I am liberal I am unamerician. Check your souces especially during this election year.

Just so you know, I am a liberal male that served my country in Vietnam and both grandfather and father were military veterans. My son has spent the last 14 years in the USMC with 2 tours in Iraq. I have guns, retrievers, own my home, worked my whole life, paid my taxes, never went to jail, never asked for government assistance and now some clown gets a mike in his hand and wants to paint me or my family as unamerician.

There is so much c*** floating around out there. Take the time and check your sources and there facts before making a decision on what is the truth.

OLL I can succeed on the tax e-mail but what about BHO's commits this past week about removing the tax credit on mult houses???

I wonder what would cause you to make such a drastic change from McCain to Obama. Don't see how someone could say they were voting for McCain, but his selection of a conservative VP turned you off.

The publications in bold above are, I think, considered to be largely conservative.

Now we know that I will never

2. [to read] glance over, scan, skim

anything without first putting it to the RTF for someone to dispute thanks for the word of the day you know I had to look it up as is often the case when you post.

I think you are exaggerating things a bit, I would consider myself to be the Evangelical Zionist Extreme Right Wing type, she would be considered conservative with moderate leanings. McCain, is more moderate than I would like.

She considers herself to be a feminist, has the backing of NOW, and her husband won the Feminist of the Year Award.

She is conservative and qaulified. I think the qualification debate has been going on for some time and people who would like to label her as anything but, are losing ground because the socialist party can't really say their poster child is that experienced or qualified.

Could it be the reason why most people don't like her is because they are sexist and don't want to vote a woman into office? Just asking.....
