Unhappy

My biggest fear is that entrepreneurs will say screw it, it is just not worth it anymore. The top combined tax rate will be over 50% now. Why work at all??, let the gov take care of me. 35% pay no tax, the top 1% pay now pay 40% of the tax burden...and he wants to make that 50%. Unreal. IMO he effectively bought this position by offering the masses redistribution to those that just want handouts.

My second biggest fear is the gutting of the military and safety of the US citizens. Wait till the next domestic terrorist attack, and real foreign threats from Iran and N. Korea. The %$%$%$%$ will hit the fan then.

Most voters are short sighted and naive. Stock futures are headed down. Better get out before that cap gains kicks in next year.

How'd you feel from 2000-2006?

Wise men speak because they have something to say; Fools, because they have to say something.
