Priorities - priotities, priorities. It's much more important to
shovel money to ACORN and the UAW than actually help people you know.

Obama - Hope and Change!
Only it's more of the same.
As most people will discover the hard way, leftist Obama isn't going to
deliver. THe rehtoric is designed to give people hope not any tangible
benefit. The benefits are for statism, not the people.
I'd be pleased with a substantial increase in the FICA* ceiling, and
increases in estate tax rates, with exclusions for small family farms
and small family businesses, plus an increase in the earned income tax
rate for incomes over $250,000 (and not just an end to the Bush rate
cuts), and, of course, higher tax rates on short-term capital gains.
*As in paying FICA on all earned income.
