Tax Plan Comparison

Everyone should surf over to countryclubfirst.com, which has an awesome comparison of who benefits from both Obama and McCain's tax plans. Unless you make over $600,000 a year, (which of course McCain still considers middle class, since its under $5 million) those ads talking about Obama tax increases aren't meant for you. Your taxes would decrease if you make under about a quarter mil per year, and stay about the same from there to $600,000. Don't take my word for it though, check out the graph at the website.

The data at that website is taken from this study by the Tax Policy Center, which is also worth reading. Of course, just like repeating "9/11" and "Iraq" thousands of times tricked huge numbers of our fellow Americans into believing Iraq was involved in 9/11, McCain's cynical plan to feed us so many lies we lose sight of the truth might actually work.
