Did you notice that Obama didn't say anything about raising taxes on the rich in his first press conference (when he was asked)? He did say that he'll immediately lower taxes for the rest of us (or at least give us some relief), and wait to see what happens (as to what to do with the rich). I wasn't going to get involved in this election but then I started paying attention to Obama's platform and I liked what I saw. Not everything, but most of what he wants to do makes a lot of sense to me.
I think some ideas are worth trying. But AFTER we get this economy booming, please. Take NOTHING away from anybody until then.
