You know how you receive things in email? Well I received this in an email forwarded from an unknown source.

For those Democrats who are looking for CHANGE, you can't tell me that Obama - Biden is change. The only change they are touting is changing from President Bush to Obama. Everything else tows the Democratic line of big government, tax and spend. If he thinks that by taxing only the wealthy will work think about this. If I'm a business owner who is looking at a big tax increase what am I going to have to do to make up for that tax increase? I'm going to have to increase my profits. To do that I need to increase what everyone pays for my product or service. So even if Joe Middleclass doesn't get a tax increase he gets one indirectly with paying more for that product or service. Also with a big government I'm sorry but just taxing the rich isn't going to be enough to pay for everything he wants.

Of course Obama is not talking about a tax decrease for those making less than $250,000. By not reducing your taxes you end up paying more in taxes. Why is that? If you make more because of a raise you pay more taxes because you will probably go into a higher tax bracket. That is unless your employer decides not to give you that raise or less of a raise because his bottom line has gone down because he is paying more in taxes. And it may mean that your employer may have to cut jobs to maintain that bottom line. Do you think that you won't get a pay raise?

Why will McCain's plan work? Simple math! When businesses increase their bottom line "hence more profits", they increase their production, increase their employees and increase your paycheck. Also by reducing what you pay out in taxes it makes that pay raise look much better to you. With more money in your pocket, you spend more and buy more products which will go back to the business which provided that service or product. Capitalism 101!

So by reducing taxes across the board it will actually increase the amount of taxes the government receives. Believe it or not it all goes back to that business' bottom line. It's a delicate balance. Funny how that works!

Let me mention how hard it is for a business to attain that $250,000 mark. Back in 1993 I had my own business. In just 8 months, the first 8 months I did $180,000 of business. So there was no doubt that I would have been able to do $250,000 of business that first year. Problem was the profits weren’t there. Taxes and overhead killed me and the business failed. But that’s a different story.

So Obama thinks that someone who makes $250,000 is rich, I say absolutely not. $250,000 is right in the middle of the middle class. That is if you want to stereotype people into a class. Do a Google search on middle class and see if you can find a definition. I bet if you look at 10 different sites you’ll find 10 different definitions middle class.

Sarah hit a home run! I don't think it really mattered all that much what she said rather how she said it. We knew Joe Biden was going to attack, attack, attack. And of course he didn't let us down. But as an objective analysis, I thought the attacks by Biden were a bit over the top. Sarah however had the right amount of attacks and substance. And I kept saying "He's wrong on that! That's not right!" and I also noticed that Ms. Ifill didn't allow Sarah to respond to a few items which I thought she was supposed to have a miniute response. But since nobody else is bringing that up maybe I missed something. Bottom line I don't think Joe Biden made the case where Sarah Palin hit it out of the park.

Look I got a fair mortgage which I pay every month. Both my wife and I work so that we can pay for that mortgage, our two cars and food on the table. I pay all my bills on time and have not been late even once. Now the government wants me to help pay for someone who got a mortgage they can’t afford their big mortgage and is defaulting on their loans.

Here is my plan
1. Protect the taxpayer – Individuals and small business owners and maybe even some big business by providing protection on their deposits. Increase FDIC protection from $100K to maybe even $500k or $1 million.
2. Let Business take care of their own – Business will rescue itself in the form of buyouts, takeovers and mergers. Maybe Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac need to be selling off portions of their business.
3. Golden Parachutes – If a CEO runs a company into the ground then that CEO doesn’t deserve a big severance package. However we have to look at it this way too. It was the company Board of Directors who agreed to that severance. Of course Boards of Directors are many times made up of CEO’s of other businesses. Thus they are taking care of themselves. That needs to change.
4. Keep banks and savings and loans as banks and savings and loans – At what point is a bank no longer a bank. Limit that amount of deposits that the bank can invest. Banks should not be gambling with your money.

Capitalism will fix the problem on its own. However we the taxpayers do need protection from the corruption and mismanagement.

So I say we need a Protection Plan not a Bailout Plan.

The Senate Bailout Bill has a bunch of earmarks.

From www.MichelleMalkin.com



I think John McCain needs to vote NO on this bill. Too many earmarks!

You know I was born and raised in Ohio, almost all of my family lives there. I have contemplated going back there. However when I lived there in the 1990’s I became more and more disheartened with the Ohio Government. Now Ohio has created another mess with voter registration. This week Ohio can register a voter who at the exact same time can turn right around and vote in early voting. Now what does this mean? It means that, and this is happening right now, that people can be bused in from God knows where, registered and given a voting ballot.



This again shows how some are going to try and cheat or steal an election.

Bailout bill fails in the House of Representatives Dow drops almost 700 points.

By David Asman @ Fox Business

1.3 Billion sell off in since the failure of the bill. Market down more than 718.

Speaker Pelosi poisoned the bailout bill by attacking President Bush and Republicans prior to a vote then twists the knife by making another attack speach after the vote failed.
