This is just part of his path to the mayors office...........Yup, had my picture taken with the Governor on Saturday too....although that is the closest I'll ever come to Republican.
Actually, I don't want to be mayor. Maybe Alderman or city council, but not mayor. Ultimate goal is governor down the road.

FWIW, I'm all for tax breaks for people earning less than what I make. Anyone who makes as much as me or more should pay a higher rate of taxes.

Chuck, I'd rather you kept your money and invested it in the private sector rather than pissing it away giving it to the government.

I agree 100% there Dave. I have no problem with a graduated scale of taxes where the more fortunate pay slightly more than the less fortunate (say 10% to 15% depending on income levels for example) and then a severe cut in gov't spending. I'm not saying cut care from those who need it, just a reassessment over a 5 year period of everyone who is on welfare...the disabled/challenged get an increase, anyone caught abusing the system gets an immediate cease of benefits. Perhaps limits on how long you can be on and a system to help those that are on get off of it (realistically, those that grew up on the system don't have a shot at a decent job w/o a little help....both with education and a few courses on professional conduct/appearance) I know that in the short term this would make gov't even bigger, but ideally in the long term I think it could help this country if managed properly.
I'm going to quit typing before I forget that I'm a Democrat.......

He's a republican, he's spent it all already anyway......

there's exceptions to both sides of that Dave, but notice that if you read the rest of my post I qualify how I'd try and get more people to at least middle class and earning their way through life...

I just don't like people who work hard and make good money being called fortunate, vs the people who make less money (for whatever reason) being called less fortunate. It makes it sound like people who make more money were just lucky, and people who don't make much money, well they just weren't on the lucky end of the deal. You get what you work for in most cases (unless you are in a union (that ought to open a can of worms).
