You're thick. We're not giving rich people a tax break, we're letting them stay at the same rate they're currently at. Rich people will have their taxes increased on January 1 unless we extend the Bush cuts.
A small business owner making 1.250 million per year will see his taxes go up $50,000 a year. So what does he do? He cuts non-critical personnel like an extra clerk, an extra secretary, an extra cleaning person, any way to get back his $50,000, or he just doesn't hire a person to replace an employee who quits. But it isn't just %50,000. All his employees he gives health benefits to will see their medical insurance plan go up a minimum of 10% with the high range being 40%. Why is it going up? Because Obamacare now requires insurance companies to insure children up to age 26 and forbids the exclusion of pre-existing conditions. So now more employees get cut. --- On Tue, 9/14/10, Leland Jackson <[email protected]> wrote: > From: Leland Jackson <[email protected]> > Subject: Re: [OT] A Recovery’s Long Odds > To: "ProFox Email List" <[email protected]> > Date: Tuesday, September 14, 2010, 5:10 PM > OK, here's the short > version.
