It doesn't put a huge dent in the finances of multimillionaires. The tax increase does, however, hurt a lot of upper middle class families that are just on the edge of making it into that tax bracket. Those hard working people are penalized for their success.

My father's an attorney in OKC. I won't lie, he makes lots of $. But when I see what they have to pay out for taxes its' just pretty shocking. What he makes (for this area) is a pretty big chunk of change, but around tax season, large amounts usually have to be borrowed in order to pay the taxman.

I don't think Senator Kerry will ever have to borrow a dime in his life. He has no clue how hard it is to succeed on your own. He'll never know. He's just a self-hating liberal who thinks everything he does is what the "common" man/woman wants.

How the hell would he know what the common man/woman was thinking?

At least GWB has business experience and has done quite a bit to help the small-business people who make up the fastest growing part of the economy.
