reduce taxes instead of increasing them. Obama's proposal results in lower income relative to current policy baseline.

Created by S.C. on June 22, 2015

President Barack Obama wants the wealthiest Americans to take on a greater tax burden, and has promised that his tax increases wouldn't affect those earning below $250,000 per year. If the Obama tax increases the investment spending would decrease which would make economic recovery more difficult. Obama thinks tax increases will help the poor but the the lower income households would actually face a worse job market with lower wages as well as lower returns on their savings. We can't stand for this!! All this is going to do is reduce economic growth and bring in lessor revenue then we could ever imagine. Increasing taxes is going to also change the way we use our resources and purchase goods. The economy will have fewer opportunities and smaller salaries. Sign petition! Make a difference!
