The following data, taken from the public record, reveals each Presidential Candidate’s proposed TAX Plan, if elected. Each taxpayer should become more informed before the November-08 General Election……or be willing to pay the tariff of ignorance, once taxes are enacted.
INTERESTING DATA ON TAXES
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 TA X
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 salesHow does this affect you?
If you sell your home and make a profit, you
will pay 28% of your gain o n 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 4 0% of the money
earned on taxes if Obama become 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.INCOM E TAX
MCCAIN (no changes)
Single making 30K – tax $4,500
Single making 50K – tax $12,500

Married making 125K – tax $38,750Under Obama your tax es 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MCCAIN 0% (No change, Bush repealed this tax)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!!!You can verify the above at the following web sites:

August 26, 2008 at 6:51 PM #262159PatentGuyParticipantActually, the biggest Obama tax increase (at least that would effect me) is having SS payroll taxes no longer limited (after the pure pandering $250K “bubble” for the democrat mainstream – after all, not fair to tax them, just other peoiple).
I am self-employed, so I pay double. This is effectively something on par of 9% increase (assuming SE taxes remain deductible against “regular” income taxes)! Much bigger than the return to Clinton brackets.
The MSM is unchallenged when it claims the “rich” (I believe defined as anyone earning more than the reporter) pay no taxes. What BS. (I think Wesley Snipes tried that, but it did not work out very well for him.)
Between the Fed and Calif, we pay more than 43% of our income in taxes. There are property and sales taxes on top of that. Why is that not enough? “Class jealousy”? Maybe. I dunno. The Obama tax increases will likely cost a couple of jobs in our small business. I know, I know, even better for the “government takes care of everyone” crowd if even more people are unemployed.

I am self-employed, so I pay double. This is effectively something on par of 9% increase (assuming SE taxes remain deductible against “regular” income taxes)! Much bigger than the return to Clinton brackets.
The MSM is unchallenged when it claims the “rich” (I believe defined as anyone earning more than the reporter) pay no taxes. What BS. (I think Wesley Snipes tried that, but it did not work out very well for him.)
Between the Fed and Calif, we pay more than 43% of our income in taxes. There are property and sales taxes on top of that. Why is that not enough? “Class jealousy”? Maybe. I dunno.
