Obama's Working Wealthy - $32k and Up!

Clearly, the economy will be a major issue throughout this campaign and it is important for Americans to see the galactic differences between John McCain’s economic plan and Barack Obama’s agenda of higher taxes and increased government spending. 

While Barack Obama’s resume is certainly thin, he has exhibited a tendency to vote for tax increases.   Everyone has heard Obama talk about how he wants to raise taxes on the “rich,” but the measures he has supported would have increased taxes on those asking making $32,000 or more.  I certainly do not consider a family getting by on $32,000 a year wealthy and these types of votes illustrate once again just how out of touch Obama is with everyday working Americans.  Hardworking Pennsylvanians struggling to make ends meet will certainly be “bitter” if Obama has his way.

John McCain understands the importance of providing economic security so everyone can have the opportunity to achieve the American dream.  His economic plan focuses on the premise that every American should have the opportunity to earn a family-sustaining wage, own a home and purchase affordable health care, all while remaining confident that their tax dollars are being spent wisely and efficiently.  John McCain’s economic policy earned the support of small business owners from around the Commonwealth this week.  They gathered in Harrisburg and shared their experiences and talked about how John McCain’s economic plan would help them create jobs and provide better benefits.  As a fellow business owner, I also look forward to seeing McCain’s sound economic policies implemented, because I truly believe that they will help propel our nation into a decade of unprecedented growth.

I would encourage everyone to click here and read a memo containing a laundry list of examples where Obama has flip-flopped positions on almost every important issue facing our nation.  Obama continues to stand for nothing and Americans are right to be concerned about his ability to lead our nation.

America deserves better.  Pennsylvania deserve better.  We deserve the leadership John McCain can and will provide.
