The Presidential Election: Regarding Obama's Tax Plan

See WSJ opinion piece: Obama's 95% Illusion

I guess a lot of people feel the need for government to be Robin Hood since it appears that the rich get rich by screwing over their fellow man. Corruption exists in every society, but I'd like to think that most rich people got rich by working hard and building something of value. The greatest asset America has are people that are willing to risk everything to start a business and make something of it. The evil lies in corrupt, greedy business people and power mad politicians. That said, I think a small percentage, like 10% of the rich are truly evil. Still that adds up and it makes the other 90% look bad. Just my 2 cents.

As for Obama this or McCain that, does it really matter?? They both promise everything and neither will be able to deliver. My advice is to vote for neither and to always vote against the incumbent. If you like a third party candidate, vote for them. If no one serves more than one or two terms, it might reduce the power of the lobbyists or at least make it more costly for lobbyists to buy favors.

It is impossible to please everybody please yourself first.

Sounds a bit selfish, doesn't it??
