Obama’s Trillion Dollar Tax Hike

by John Hawkins | February 26, 2009 1:11 pm

Over at ABC News they’re running down Obama’s nearly trillion dollar tax hike[1]. That’s right, he has been in office a little over a month and he is not only proposing the largest tax hike in history, he is already proposing a tax hike bigger than most of the world’s economies.

Rather than go into details, I thought I would post some of the comments from the ABC News website. Happily, most of the comments quite properly treated Obama’s insane proposal with the rich scorn and savage mockery that it deserves.

The rapid movement toward class warfare is both dangerous and counterproductive. The American dream is what drives us to work as hard as we can to one day achieve prosperity. What is it exactly that makes people so evil once they achieve the dream? Apparently once you cross $250K, you’ve crossed over to the dark side. What about that way of thinking is logical?!? It isn’t. It’s envy and lust, plain and simple

I still can not believe the blind followers of Obama. I hate to be mean, but I have to be honest. Some of you people, like Amy below, are either extremely stupid or just wont admit the truth.

Obama just doubled the defecit. He’s lied about ear marks. And HELLO! What the hell do you people think is going to happen when corporations and the “rich” get their taxes raised? THEY PASS THEM ON TO YOU!!!!!! How hard is that to understand. Wow some of you are just plain idiotic.

All you know about Obama is speeches and you blindly back everything he says because he says it in a good manor. Think for yourselves morons.

CAN I HAVE SOME OF YOUR MONIES RICH PEOPLE? I NEED TO GET SOME CHROME RIMS AND TIRES ON MY 87′ OLDSMOBILE CUTLASS. ALSO. I WOULD LIKE TO GET A BIGGER AMP FOR MY STEREO AND GET RID OF MY 12″ SUBS AND GET 15″ ONES. THANKS.

GEORGE OBAMA

Shut up guys! This is really hard, I’m doing the best that I can! — Barak Obama

Good….I will fire 3 people this month to pay for the new business taxes…I am now even.

“HOW IS THIS WORKING FOR YOU?”

Got Chaos?

Got Poverty?

Got Despair?

Got Obama!

you owe sixteen tons and what do you get, another day older and deeper in debt, St. Peter don’t you call me cause I can’t go, I owe my soul to the govmint store

The reason we’re in this fiasco is because the rich got out of paying taxes for so long. They need to be brought down to everyone else’s level. Personally, I’d like to see every dime of income over $250,000 taken in taxes and businesses should have profits over a certain amount taken as well. We middleclass and poor have been stiffed for two long. Thank goodness we have a President who’s ready to take a stand.

I take it my parents were wrong about money not growing on trees. Can somebody point me to the tree it is growing on so I can grab some?

Comrades, do not worry. The Great Commissar will take care of you. After all the businesses and owners are brought down to the level of its workers, the Commissar will take care of them too. We have many projects for you. The streets need cleaning and the grass needs to be cultured. We will move you all into your own “family unit” so that you can take care of each other, so there is no need for nursing homes which we will close since they will all be dead.

Is there any of you idiots who voted for Obama that didn’t see this coming? And to those of you saying, “Good. The ‘rich’ deserve to pay more”. Guess what, ‘the rich’ are going to lay off people from their businesses and that may include YOU. You don’t work for a small business? As workers get laid off, other businesses will be affected, and then, yes, YOU will lose your job. To those of you who voted for Obama (that currrently work for a living–not those of you who never worked), you are going to get exactly what you deserve.

What I truly find fascinating is the revisionism of the left. For the last 6 years, the left has cried loud and long about the deficits of Mr. Bush and how they are destructive to our economy. Yet, now, with Obama we are supposed to just accept 1.75 trillion in deficits, accept new taxation, and call this change. Does not anyone on the left recognize this as tax and spend liberalism? Everyone was told this is exactly what Obama and the Democrats would do. Those brave enough to say it were summarily scoffed at and dismissed by the Obama supporters with such things as “that will never happen”. Guess what? It is happening. We have changed alright to where Americans think tax and spend liberalism is a good thing. We are the road to a liberal generated disaster following a president who is clueless.

Now watch the rich white people whine lol

That’s the kind of change we are looking for. I read that the federal budget will cost over $11,000 per person. Higher taxes give me the incentive to work more and give it all to the government. They know much better how to handle money than I ever could. Thank you Senate, House, and Mr. President. We just don’t know what we would do with out you. Other than have a whole lot more money in our pockets to help fuel a slowing economy.

This isnt a budget. Its a declaration of war against people who produce.
