Re: Obama or McCain?

With respects to a progressive tax rate, any business that charged their customers based on what they made would be out of business very quickly. Why does government get to do it?

The rich pay way more than their share of the federal income taxes anyway. Top 1% pay about 30% of all federal income tax and the bottom 50% pay just less than 4%.

Mike-in no way am I defending what has been done with the banking system as of late. Bush turned out to not be nearly as conservative as he claimed to be. That said, I am still glad I voted for him over Kerry or Gore because government would have grown a lot more and we wouldn't have had any tax cuts.
