The budget debate is quickly moving into high gear. This morning on the Today Show, House Speaker John Boehner told Matt Lauer he was unwilling to do what is necessary to make our country strong again. Even though HE KNOWS that we need every Patriotic American to work together to strengthen our country, Congressman Boehner refused to even consider raising taxes on incomes over $1,000,000 a year. He said it was ‘totally off the table’ – even raising taxes on incomes over A BILLION DOLLARS is ‘totally off the table’.
Doesn’t he know that only 375,00 people out of 307,000,000 make that money every year?
Doesn’t he know that incomes over $1 million a year are taxed less than they have been since the Great Depression?
Some AMAZING Patriotic Millionaires are fighting back. Take a look at a video about the Patriotic Millionaires Campaign for Fiscal Strength.
These amazing Americans are demanding that Cong. Boehner, Senator Reid and President Obama raise their taxes ‘For the fiscal health of our nation and the well-being of our fellow citizens.’
Public policy is like a tennis ball in the middle of a see saw. We have to make sure that ball rolls in a direction that is right for America – - -
If you want to get on the right side of the see saw – go to www.patrioticmillionaires.org and sign the petition! You can sign either as a person who makes over $1 million a year or as a friend of the campaign.
Next week, The Agenda Project will deliver the petition to the House, Senate, and White House!
If these millionaires REALLY want to pay more taxes all they have to do is write the Treasury a check. Nothing is stopping them. Of course, this little dog and pony show is nothing more than the typical leftist hat trick designed to force others to pay for bigger government, more entitlements and most importantly, the death of capitalism. As Obama said, “gotta spread that wealth”, by forcibly taking it away from others.
