-He wants to raise taxes 25% taking more money out of our pockets and putting the "average person," whom he supposedly stands for, even more in debt.
-He wants to tax the oil companies. The oil companies will then raise prices YET AGAIN taking money out of our pockets and putting those of us struggling further in debt.
-He will not support domestic drilling. With no supply of oil of our own we're forced to buy more and more foreign oil and ruin our economy even more.
-He wants to take us out of Iraq and hopefully lower the budget. Yet he wants to spend THREE TIMES what we've been spending in Iraq on his programs.
McCain on the other hand:
-Supports domestic drilling yet refuses to allow it to destroy wild life preserves.
-He will cut taxes, especially for small businesses, to help create new jobs and put more money in our pockets.
Also, Obama ending the war is bull shit. He went from saying he'd pull us out right away to saying he'd "decrease" our presence. He's trying to be more moderate and appeal more to those concerned about national security but he's selling out his original promises.
You make it seem like it is going to change... It isn't, the truth is that everyone should vote third party, but that's not going to happen.
McCain doesn't know shit about the economy either and I don't think his domestic policies are any better than Obama's.
By voting McCain you are saying that good ol' American ingenuity doesn't exist anymore. We used to be a country FULL of inventors, but we can't even improve what is goin on around this now. Well I gotta go back to working my life away, since I know I'll never retire with the way shit is. Later.
EDIT BEFORE I LEAVE:
The reason I feel the way I do is that my parents are in their mid-40's and can't even think about retiring because there is not enough extra money for them to save. I'm going to be taking care of them, and now we have started an endless cycle. Mine will care for me, and so on. I have retired myself to not having children for that reason.
