Republican presidential candidate John McCain said on his Website before the election that he wanted the government to:Lower Energy Costs. (Think “drill, baby, drill”). McCain supported increased domestic exploration and drilling of oil and natural gas to increase energy supply and reduce crippling energy costs for small businesses. The McCain / Palin team wants to build 45 nuclear power plants by 2030 to create cheap electricity. $2 billion will be used annually to research the clean use of coal. Think “scrub, baby, scrub.”Hand Out Health Care Money: McCain wants the government to provide $5,000 for health insurance to every American family to help small businesses afford to offer health insurance to employees. However, he opposes costly mandates or “pay or play” requirements (referring to Obama’s plan) that he says will raise the financial burden on small business and cut an owner’s ability to hire.Cut Corporate Tax Rate From 35 To 25 Percent: As international “trade partners lowered their rates, America failed to keep pace. American workers deserve the chance to make fine products here and sell them around the globe.”Allow First-Year Deduction, or “Expensing,” of Equipment and Technology Investments: American workers need the finest technologies to compete. To expense equipment and technology “will provide an immediate boost to capital expenditures and reward investments in cutting-edge technologies.”Reduce Estate Tax: McCain wants to reduce the estate tax to 15 percent and allow a $10 million exemption to allow families to better retain their businesses.Prosecute “Bad-Actor” Employers of Illegal Immigrants: McCain will implement a secure, accurate and reliable electronic employment verification system to ensure that individuals are screened for work eligibility in a real-time fashion. Targeted auditing by the Department of Labor will be instituted in order to weed out abusive employers. McCain wants to implement a usable, market-based system for low-skilled workers to enter the United States in an orderly fashion while providing adequate worker protection to guard against employer abuses of temporary workers.Expand Free Trade Agreements: “The U.S. should engage in multilateral, regional and bilateral efforts to reduce barriers to trade, level the global playing field and build effective enforcement of global trading rules. Export growth is the strongest part of our sluggish economy, and we should be encouraging the growth of even more jobs in this sector through more free trade agreements which give American firms more access to sell our goods and services abroad.” So much for the real problem solving taking place, we all hate the idea of “Bailouts” to rich fat-cats when the real bailout should go to the tax payers. Remember your Vote does count but UNLIKE the Liberals ONLY ONCE, SO DON’T WASTE IT ON LIARS who will only make the economy tank worse after the election is over. 7.) McCain and Obama’s Final Debate: Oct. 15: John McCain and Barack Obama shift the focus to domestic policy issues for their third presidential debate at Hofstra University, Hempstead, NY. And remember you were NOT to VOTE FOR “The Great Debater” you were supposed to be voting for President, voting for any reason other than their experience levels was a misvote. Its not in the least bit important who is more “Eloquent and Flowing” only, who has REAL SOLID ANSWERS to the real solid day to day issues like “Taxes” and “Security”- would you trust Mr.(Government) Obama to NOT tax your “Small Business” during these tough times? Do you believe it when he SAYS he won’t tax you? I don’t! At least “Robin Hood” was well intentioned when he “Took from the Rich” Obama wants to tax ANYONE ABOVE 250,000 A YEAR….Now think real hard, what does it cost ANY small “Mom and Pop”corner store every year to run just above water? Business owners making more than $250,000 annually [ as the number goes down ] or looking to pass a substantial business on to their heirs would have found more to like in Senator McCain’s tax policies.
Here is just one of hundreds of testimonials for his plan from real people like us: But to THINK before voting for Obama was too much to ask for, partisan politics has more power than the American vote- I supported McCain/Palin and stand by that! I TOLD YOU SO’s ARE COMING LATER, simply because I have warned you all so I have the right since I voted right.
- Damn Fool ?
“I am a long term small business owner and a woman and I support McCain/Palin (and not because Palin is a women, I made my choice long before). I’ve owned more than one company in my business career so far and the latest one I’ve had for 16 years. I’ve never had over 10-12 employees so we’ve always been small. This is by choice and necessity because there is VERY little support from groups like the SBA and I’ve chosen to build our business on profits, not loans or venture funding.
Because we are an s-corp. building on profits means often times paying higher taxes at year end because we didn’t spend all our profits and we get taxed on them personally. That means a potential huge tax increase for us and many others. Most non-business owners DO NOT understand this. Many medical doctors, lawyers, CPAs and other small businesses may have similar tax burdens.
I see Obama as a threat to my business. I am actually making contingency plans for the first time in 16 years [As all Americans should do now IF their smart! ] – expecting I may have to change dramatically to survive all the new “changes we can believe in” and taxes he and the Democrats are proposing. I am expecting more and more people to take their money “off the table” if [since ] Obama wins – and that is scary because so much of our economy depends on that money. Please THINK, since you voted for Obama with all this evidence that HE IS A SOCIALIST at heart- it may mean the end of many small businesses and other freedom’s in America – at least as you and I know them today. Now understand that I don’t think he will come into office “As a Socialist reformer”[Throwing the frog into boiling water.] but he and his Liberal crownies WILL BEGIN THE PROCESS SLOWLY [Putting the frog in cold water and turning up the heat ] OVER THE NEXT 4 YEARS STEALING OUR FREEDOM’S out from under us with great sounding patriotic words with our help….NOT OVERNIGHT, he’ll do the RIGHT thing to gain trust for awhile but a leaperd can’t change it’s spots!
People can wrongly THINK me silly and overbearing when I WARN OF THIS HAPPENING in America, and I think its because they believe I’m saying that OVERNIGHT at some point we will wake up and be Socialist. THAT WILL NEVER HAPPEN because Americans are NOT that dumb [ AsYet!] BUT it will happen OVER TIME (Years of in-roads into our Mindset will erode away at our national common sense. ) so that Americans will accept some “Socialistic” ideas (wrapped in a “Conservative/Liberal” framework.)
Are Democratic Socialist Ideas Leading America Toward Communism? The Evidence is clear it is!
Carol Quigley a friend and teacher of Bill Clinton made this revealing statement:
“Their aim [ The Global Socialist's ] is NOTHING LESS than to create a world system of financial CONTROL IN PRIVATE HANDS, able to dominate THE POLITICAL SYSTEM of each country and the ECONOMY OF THE WORLD as a whole.”

So what does this all mean? Here is a synopsis: The UN would do the following FOR YOU (THIS IS ANTI-FAMILY) because WHAT RIGHT DOES THE U.N. HAVE OVER OUR SOVEREIGN NATION? NONE RIGHT NOW but just wait till the Liberals finish with us as a nation. IF we are DUMB enough to sacrifice our nation on the alter of the World economy we will ALL pay a hefty price in the near future because of UNINFORMED Voters who FOLLOW the band-wagons instead of Leading as examples of American thinkers who dig up the truth. And this is just one of the scary things to expect:
A.] Give children THE RIGHT by LAW to disregard parental authority.
B.] The STATE will determine a child’s best interest, NOT the Child AND NOT YOU THE PARENT.
C.] The provisions of the TREATY MUSH BE ENFORCED by laws.
D.] All children MUST BE REGISTERED from the DAY OF THEIR BIRTH, this stinks of communistic overtones does it not?.
E.] SEVERE LIMITATIONS are placed on the PARENT’S RIGHT to direct and train THEIR OWN CHILDREN.
F.] They would entrench a Teens RIGHT TO ABORT THEIR BABIES, eliminating the end result…. MORE KIDS to care for.
G.] The STATE MUST ASSIST parents [who have no control] in the raising of THEIR children.
H.] If parents DO NOT COMPLY THEY WILL BE PROSECUTED [in case you missed it that means jail time for you.]
I.] The UN will place a PROHIBITION ON ANY FORM OF CORPORAL PUNISHMENT [ That means you the parent CANNOT SPANK YOUR CHILD EVER ]
J.] Our Children’s Education will be for WORLD GOVERNMENT [ I.E. New World Order ]
K.] International Social engineers will PARENT YOUR CHILDREN FOR YOU. This is for real people and we as a people must fight back against this U.N. intrusion into our rights as Americans. Everyone knows that the U.N. can’t even run it’s own business from day to day without a contoversy of some kind, so what makes us think they could even begin to be able to raise our children?
This is the end of where we are headed as a country UNLESS WE SAY NO TO EVERY INROAD that Obama and the Liberals try to lay down no matter how good it sounds. We cannot afford to slack off and sleep while Liberals LIE, CHEAT AND STEAL this country, WAKE UP and smell the **** people this is THE single most Important time in history. Its never been important weather we have a Black man or a Women- what’s Important is that we should have Men & Women who LOVE this great country AS THE FOUNDING FATHERS MADE IT, to stop THE “Socialist Liberals” who wish to TURN IT away from this pit of failure called socialism. True Americans need to begin now to take back our power to vote and get rid of people who hinder and block that power through partisan agendas, when is enough going be enough?
