And About Those "Tax Increases"?

Obama has stated anyone making less than $250,000 will not see any increase in their taxes. This has been his position for months.

Under a month ago, that number mysteriously dropped to $200,000.

Last week, Joe Biden said anyone making under $150,000 wouldn't see any increases in taxes.

Two days ago, New Mexico Governor Bill Richardson, seen by many to be a lock on an Obama cabinet spot, said that anyone making under $120,000 won't see any increases.

Anyone see a problem here?

Oh, and in case you wondered, in 2003, Barry went as low as $50,000.

Do the numbers folks. If you calculate his tax proposals he's about $400 million off each year-from spending (money going out) and taxes collected (money coming in), which will actually add $1.2 BILLION worth of debt to our already stellar economy.

Nice job Hussein! You've got the American public fooled...that was real hard. Try doing what we do everyday and you'd see that most of the young people today are as uninspired, lazy, lemming minded, foolish, forgetful, ignorant, dependant, ungrateful little shits that don't need meds just a swift kick in the ass!

Oh yeah, I forgot to say, remember in early 2007 I started posting information about the economy and this poster ragged on me, saying I was a lie, the economy was fine, jobs were at an all time high, the stock market was good, etc. Remember that? Well, it is good enough for me that through all of his uninformed and unintelligent insults, I kept to my plan. I am a P.O. and will be a millionaire by June. I read the writing on the wall and tried to give my blue family the heads up.

As usual, I was just insulted with unintelligence. By the way, start a post with how much people lost in Deferred Comp, since that is the only thing police officers know how to invest in. Let's see, I bet I can count at least a loss of 1 million dollars, with posters alone. I know that same idiot lost close to every penny that he has made over the years in interest alone.

I will be posting my new website in February after I retire, so for those of you who don't mind a minority that you can acutally see than a computer or a website as deferred comp is handling your retirement, let me know. Right now, I am laughing everytime I go to the bank. By the way, I am on foreclosure number 17. I now have 6 commercial properties, 5 condos downtown, and 6 homes, 3 in Beverly and 3 in Mt. Greenwood. Yes, I own them all flat out.

Breaking News - Another CPD shooting

Police officer shoots man in Chicago's North Park neighborhood

An off-duty Chicago police officer shot a man early this morning in North Park, police said.
The shooting occurred about 1:30 a.m. outside a residence in the 5100 block of North Bernard Street, said Mark Payne, a spokesman for the Independent Police Review Authority, which investigates shootings involving Chicago officers.
The man, who police did not identify, was taken to a local hospital for treatment. His condition was unavailable.
Knives were recovered at the scene, Payne said.
Police investigators were still on the scene at 3:30 a.m., he said.

No other information was immediately available.

The thing is, we are almost at the point where it doesn't matter what taxes we pay. 10 trillion in national debt is from taxes that weren't paid. Its not particularly a right or left problem, and its something that is slowly bankrupting this country.

You guys recognize "FICA" taxes for social security and medicaid? They come out of private sector paychecks at a fixed percentage up to a maximum cap.

Here's the rub. Imagine the history of FICA tax rates since social security was first formed:

In 1937, the rate was 1%
In 1960, 3 %
In 1970, 4.8 %
In 1980, 6.13 %
In 1990 and later 7.65 %,

Employers match what the employee pays in, so the rate for the self-employed is double the employee's percentage since 1984. The rates include the mandatory Medicare deduction, which has been rising alarmingly fast.

So you tell me how that is a left or right problem. They start a mandatory Ponzi scheme in the 30s, slowly increase the percentages that must be paid in, and it still faces a massive shortfall (mostly due to increased life expectancies).

It really isn't a right or left issue. If it was, the Democrats would have fixed it from 1992-1994 or the Republicans from 2000-2006.

Neither party is willing to touch it.

Politicians are notorious for being full of crap.

Obama being a politician that was marinated in Crook County politics is especially predisposed to tax everyone that pays taxes.

I can't believe seven years after 9/11 there is the possibility this guy might become president.

I really hope the polls and the media that is in the tank fir Obama are wrong and he loses the election.

Can you imagine the Chicago influences in Obama's past being at the levers of power in Washington D.C??

Holy Uncle Barry Batman!!!

Democrats always want to tax the fuck out of the middle class. They suppress the lower classes with freebies and lack of incentive to work in order to get their votes. The middle class goes no where because they never get a break. (confused voters) And the rich (3% percentile) of the country always get tax breaks because they have enough money to invest and let it work to their advantage. (corporate funding political elections).

Corporate American is calling the shots. Guys like Warren Buffet who back Obama. Why? Does Warren think he paid too little in taxes? Maybe if he needs to pay more he can donate the billions he made off of manipulating the political system in American to favor his business interests.

The Democratic and Republican parties are manipulated by corporations. The Democrats love to tax the shit out of the working man and woman. Republicans want less taxes and less government. Since we can't get enough voters to support a third party to correct these overwhelming corrupt influences in American the choice is clear. Vote for the worst of these two evils. If you collect free shit from the government then we know who you want. If you want less taxes and more people working and not taking freebies unless they truly need it them you know what to do.

God bless American!

As a retired copper, I am embarrassed by the way some of the people who post messages on this blog have of expressing themselves. Can't you disagree with someone's position without engaging in personal attack? None of us are economists, certainly not the world class economists, that have been consulted by both camps. Tax cuts or tax increases, whatever your preference, are but one small part of the overall picture. Vote your pocketbooks if you like but why argue that a man's race, ethnicity or middle name is proof of his evil intent - it just makes you look stupid, racist, and ignorant.

Every couple of years when contract talks start and stop and raises are demanded, you people claim that you're entitled to a higher standard of living because you "risk your lives every day." Yet, most of you will see little "real" action during your entire careers. You also make far more than most people. The average worker is lucky to be making $12.00 an hour; college graduates maybe $10/hr more; yet patrolmen are now earning $30-35/hr for settling minor disputes and taking reports. Most of the reports written and the investigations conducted (assuming they are actually conducted), could be done by anyone off the street. You think you're experts on just about everything when you know very little about anything which goes on outside your immediate sphere of influence.

Bottom line is - You folks need to get a life and realize just how well off you are and stop slamming anyone who disagrees with you.

If taxes go up, I just buy the barest necessities.

I don't buy a new car, I fix the old one. I put off any new purchase and either fix and/or live with the ones I have.

I bring a lunch to work and stay away from restaurants. I don't go to the movies. I don't buy stock, I pull back on my 401K. I don't buy T-bills or CD's with my money, instead I keep it stored in a bank at very low interest, just so I have it. A bank that is scared to lend it out to anyone else.

I don't buy the new cellphone, the new computer, the new IPod, or the new camera.

My army and I all do the same. In the end, the world shuts down. The people at the computer factory are fired. Restaurants close. The stock market crumbles, putting a bigger burden on social security. Walmarts close. Chinamen are fired and revolt. No new businesses open. Old businesses close.

11/02/2008 02:21:00 PM

You need to do your math before deciding that this is a bad thing. True McCain has said that he would like to include the employee contribution of health insurance as taxable income. However that would be offset by a $5000.00 tax credit per family.
If do the math, you might see that McCain's plan may actually give you a tax benefit. On a PO salary, the highest tax bracket you will fall in is 25 % (probably way less depending on your real taxable income.) The city pays about $12,000 for health insurance per family. If taxed, that would create a tax liability of $3,000. Offset that with the 5,000 tax credit McCain wants to give you and you end up with a $2,000 refund. This is set up to go along with the progressive income tax we pay. Therefore, the less you make the lower the tax bracket and the less tax liability.
Instead of just listening to the leftist media, do the math and actually see which plan will benefit your family. It may not benefit all of you this way because some families have two incomes and two health insurance plans, but in that case the $5,000 tax credit would completely offset the tax liabilities created due to taxing employee health care contributions. Whatever the case, to argue that your taxes will go up under John McCain’s health plan is incorrect and they may actually go down depending on your family income.

"It may not benefit all of you this way because some families have two incomes and two health insurance plans, but in that case the $5,000 tax credit would completely offset the tax liabilities created due to taxing employee health care contributions."

YOU ARE A MORONIC STOOP, YOUR HEALTH PLAN WOULD BE GONE, MCCAINS PLAN WOULD LET THE CITY OFF THE HOOK,GOOD LUCK FINDING A HEALTH CARE PLAN FOR 5 GRAND NOT INCLUDING DENTAL& VISION.

off the subject, I just visited NYPD website and the police received a 17 percent pay increase over 4 yrs. they said that a PO with 5.5 yrs on the job will earn 90,829 before overtime. Good for them, they have been underpaid for years. Also, they dont have a residency requirement for them to live in the city. Maybe Lodge 7 should take notes

I bet everyone's 401K or with us deffered comp will be taxed, too. Right now it's tax-free until we start withdrawing at a set age. To private citizens who's employer meets a certain percentage of their employee's 401K, they too will be taxed and employers won't contribute because of the new tax. Right now employer's contributions is tax free.

Mark my words, it will be taxed and those monies will be "spread around" to others who don't work. We will all be f*cked thanks to all those dummies who are mesmerized by this fraud.

Everyone is missing the point. If Obama becomes president, Chicago will receive 50 billion in just the first year alone. The link card will be upped to $7,000 a month with a full cash option. There will be no more Section 8. If you don't work, just point to a house and it's yours. You have to quit your job now, because after the election, if you have a job , you wont qualify.

Former Governor Edgar, who I still respect somewhat, ran a commercial on CON CON and encouraged a no vote. The CURRENT leadership will run the CON CON and set the agenda. His solution is to vote out the present leaders.

Too bad he doesn't want to run again. The Illinois Republican party is in dire straits and could use his leadership.

The only poll that counts is on Tuesday.

And don't spout lib-tard rhetoric about what Bush has done in office and say McCain in the same context. If McCain is the next Bush, then Obama is the next Daley. In fact McCain has denounced Bush's actions and has openly spoke of reducing taxes AND spending; a true conservative in the Reagan sense.

Excuse me if I don't believe what a Chicago bred democrat says about taxation; telling the truth is not their strong point.

Check out the clips of I.O.U.S.A. on youtube. You'll get a better picture of how both democrats and republicans have run up and paid off deficits over the entire history of our country. Frankly- Bush has run it up higher than anyone else through his spending, expansion of government and his "tax cuts" (which never should have occurred at all!).

And- more dangerously-our deficit is owned by more foreign countries at a rate higher than ever, making us more vulnerable as a nation. Our economy tanked after 9-11-imagine if a disaster occurred now during this current crisis?

I.O.U.S.A. will be out on dvd in December-rent it and get a better picture of what's really happening before pointing fingers-we're all to blame.

No, I am an accountant just pointing out the truth about the tax consequences of McCain's Healthcare plan. Anything beyond that is pure speculation on your part.
However, if you want to speculate here is a thought for you? If you think that under Obama's plan you will be keeping your current healthcare plan you are sadly mistaken. The choice will be up to the employer (in your case, Daley) of either providing with health insurance or participating in a governmental healthcare insurance program. Which do you think Daley will choose?
Whatever the case there is no way to reason with you because you have already been tainted by the Democratic Party.

@ 11/02/2008 09:23:00 AM,

I don't like it because has been previously posted, any money that comes back to Illinois by virtue of Obama being elected president will very likely only find it's way in to the pockets of the Chicago/Illinois political "combine".

Obama's whole past is a simple lesson in looking for the new piece of bread before throwing the old one away and collecting a lot of fleas around him along the way.

Even in academia and as a community organizer he has created nothing, produced nothing of true value that has survived his departure that he can point to as a significant accomplishment. He's not going to point to the 30 defunct Rezko low-income housing development projects, 11 of which were in his State Congressional District which he said he knew nothing about as they were going belly-up.

Obama's tax policy is crazy and it shows his leftist class war fare mindset or his complete mis-understanding of small-ball economics.

Small business is the only big business left in America.

Bottom-line, Obama is going to cost jobs.

What in Obama's past can you point to where he has made his own Dime?

From what I have read in many media outlets he's only taken bread from the hand of others before finding somebody with a bigger piece of bread in their hand.

I haven't even got in to who has made Obama, Obama but that whole history is filed under the Daley Crime Family and the Illinois Combine as already referenced.

With my Army retirement check, what I make at my current job, and what my wife makes as a store manager (and we've both been working for over 35 years each) the "have-nots" might consider us "wealthy," but they weren't there when we were eating beans and reusing the bacon for the next pot to make sure our kids got fed adequately. If the "have-nots" want to do what we did, they need to get what they "have-not:" jobs.

Oh I'm sorry I forgot McCains health plan has portability so you can move from State to State & still retain your coverage.
Of course Health Care companies won't deny coverage to preexisting conditions or just opt out of providing heatlh care in that certain state entirely.

Yes he has said he will raise taxes and will let the Bush tax cuts expire, which means taxes get raised again! the marriage tax, capital gains, all taxes back in effect, child tax credit gone!

McCain wants to raise the child tax credit to $7000 per child, Obama would let it expire at its current rate of $3000 per child.

Vote McCain if you have a brain please.
