OBAMA MAY RAISES TAXES ON MIDDLE CLASS TO PAY FOR HIS INSURER FRIENDLY HEALTH PLAN
Washington Post - President Obama's top political adviser declined yesterday to rule out the possibility that the White House would agree to a tax hike on health insurance plans that would hit middle-income Americans. Speaking on ABC's "This Week," David Axelrod declined to repeat Obama's "firm pledge" during the campaign that families making under $250,000 would not see "any form of tax increase, not your income tax, not your payroll tax, not your capital gains taxes, not any of your taxes." Instead, Axelrod said the president has no interest in "drawing lines in the sand" on the issue of how to pay for the costly health reform plan making its way through Congress.

For a successful economy we need a tax code that rewards achievement and encourages investment. Encourage the Obama administration to enact policies that bring tax rates in line with our global competitors.

Obama is a good political adviser.
The chamber of commerce is a bunch of corporate crap posing as small business, Fuck them.
US tax rates are low in comparison to the rest of the world. If we bring tax rates in line with our global competitors, then tax rates will go up.
