I've seen this posted and debated in several different threads. The argument that Obama's plan will only increase taxes on those making over $ 250K and 95% of taxpayers (actually 81% of households) would get a tax cut. However he has voted in the past to increase taxes on single taxpayers making as little as $ 42K and families making $ 90K. I don't care what his plan is, his voting record leads me to believe he'll increase taxes on a much larger scale than his "plan" says. Not to mention his proposed capital gains increases will affect many more people and small business.
