You don't have to believe anything, this is a forum, you can go back and read what you have written, and you wrote 80%. And a quick google search shows that for 2008 the maximum tax rate is 40%, not the 60% you also claim:

www.frenchentree.com...

A couple of years ago it was 50%, but now it's been revised down in line with the UK maximum tax band:

www.taxationweb.co.uk...

And the maximum tax band in the US is 35%, so we're talking a 5% difference.

And to stress, this is the maximum taxation, for those on higher wages as the top article table shows. If you look at the table the very poor aren't taxed AT ALL. In the US however, even if you only earn $100 in an entire year, you owe $10 tax. So you're really exagerrating your points and thinking based on myths and misperceptions. First you said it was 80%, then 60%, and the facts show the maximum it can be is 40%, 5% more than in the US, and that France and other socialist countries tax the poor less, so you're really just talking rubbish and perpetuating a lie.

Also, you don't address my point. Is it okay for the rich in America to stay rich, and the poor to be poor, are you advocating an underclass? That we should accept children growing up in poverty? Did you hear about the kid who died of a toothache?

www.washingtonpost.com...

Is this acceptable to you, you want to live in a society that thinks this is OK? My God, you want the world to believe you live in a country that wants peace and freedom all around the world and is willing to invade countries to achieve this goal, but conversely there will be an underclass and that people should suffer and die over a toothache?

All the US went through to abolish the segregation of blacks and whites in the 60's should now be undone, and we should separate the rich from the poor?

Well Put Pokey Joe....i could not put it any better... Obamma is to the right of even globalist socialist Hillary Clinton... Obamma would be great for those who have no money or no property or no job... Just like Castro was great for those in Cuba who had nothing. But in the USA most people have a lot to lose if true Red Communism does occurr sometime in the near future. Therefore i personally do not want anything to do with Obamma. i don't care if he has a good personality and speaks well or not. i have too much to lose if i lose my pension, my home, my taxes going up etcetc.
i saw a you tube video yesterday that showed the world slowly but surely becoming red communist. it was scary. but that seems to be the attitude of many people nowadays...
Yes both McCain and Obamma are CFR, council of foreign relations. so is Clinton as well.. i am not all that crazy about the Tri Lateral Commission or the Bilderbergers... i would imagine that all three candidates are New World Order and Illuminati members....
so, i will pick mc cain due to who is running against him.. lesser of two evils...
