Here's a thought: Tax bigger corporations more, cut the extra 20% tax on sole proprietorships (sole proprietors actually pay double and sometimes triple taxes), and leave it in the small businesses hands to pick up the employees that corporate America lays off because of the higher taxes! That was part of McCain's plan. Too bad we won't see it.

Obama's plan is to tax bigger corporations without recourse for the repercussions it would reap on the lower class. How is he going to help the lower class with health care when the extra taxes will be used for existing (and growing, thanks to all the taxes his plan will incorporate) assistance programs already in place?

Joe the plumber had it right, we as small business owners will be taxed more, and I guess in the end do our civic duty to prop up the glut that is corporate America.

"From time to time the Tree of Liberty must be watered with the blood of patriots and tyrants." - Founder of the Democratic Party, Thomas Jefferson.

"The following [addition to the Bill of Rights] would have pleased me: The people shall not be deprived or abridged of their right to speak, to write, or otherwise to publish anything but false facts affecting injuriously the life, liberty or reputation of others, or affecting the peace of the [United States] with foreign nations." --Thomas Jefferson to James Madison, 1789. ME 7:450, Papers 15:367

Even Thomas Jefferson believed in self censorship when it comes to ones opinions harming others.
