As 2013 starts, most of us are going to get a shock when we see our first paycheck of the year.
While the President promises that his policies are to protect the middle class, that has not come to pass and those making $30,000 plus are about to find that out.
The middle class will be seeing tax increases and less and less money in their paycheck due to Social Security and Obamacare taxes. We will also see additional taxes on purchases.
The economic reality of this administration is that it is all for income redistribution as opposed to building an economy that grows and allows people to work their way out of poverty. We are witnessing an administration that would rather see more people in poverty. Their actions, all under the guise of "it's not fair" for some to have more than others, is intellectually dishonest. Now it will be fair for us all to have a lot less.
The administration will not look honestly at the uncontrolled spending as being the problem. The problem is not that the rich don't pay enough. They pay plenty. And once there's nothing left to take from them, they will come after everyone else's paychecks. The government's wanting of your money is insatiable.
Taxes are nothing more than theft of our private property. We have all worked hard for our paycheck only to have the government take money from us to give to people, businesses, etc. it sees fit.
When we have less financial independence, we are less free.
Can we take four more years of this policy of redistribution?
