In his speech to the small business group, Mr. McCain denounced Mr. Obama’s plan to pay for his economic stimulus plan by increasing taxes on people making more than $250,000 a year, arguing it would harm businesses, as well. “Under Senator Obama’s tax plan, Americans of every background would see their taxes rise,” he said, “seniors, parents, small business owners, and just about everyone who has even a modest investment in the market.”
I'm not making $250,000 with or without investments and I make above the US average. I know some people who are far better off than I am at this point, but I assume they are not making $250,000 either.
So who is this "everyone who has even a modest investment in the market.”? Rich Republicans are not everyone. International arms dealers are not everyone. Oil companies are not everyone. Certainly the soldiers that Senator McCain has asked to stay in Iraq for a hundred years are not everyone.
