change we can believe in.

with obama's rampage on taxing the rich and corporations it doesn't give much incentive for people to stick around. already in california and maryland companies and millionaires are fleeing those states.

fair taxation, people. not class warfare.

Rampage???
A 3% increase for 5% of the population is "class warfare"?

It's a tax rampage worthy of the tax monster Reagan!

IF anyone takes a real look at the debt it doesn't take long to figure out much higher taxes and or serious inflation (the biggest tax on the poor possible) are coming.

Statements like this from Frank don't exactly give people with money a secure feeling either considering his current leadership role.

The wealthy have had it their way for thirty years. We cant afford that anymore.

Frankly we never could.

Isn't the conservative doctrine that policies that raise GDP will raise revenue without raising tax rates?

GDP has taken a massive hit from levels that already weren't high enough to cover their old levels of spending. When you look at the extra spent for these bailouts/stimulus programs plus the 60 some trillion we were already in the hole- things aren't good is putting it mildly.
