and i dont mind paying a lil more taxes if it funds some services... we obviously need them IMO.
I don't mind paying a little more either, but I do when a candidate states it to incur at one level then days before it slips right back down to the middle class which always takes the brunt of the tax burden. That is outright lying and nobody deserves a vote based on a lie.
I threw the race thing out there because you said it was a large part of the reasoning, so I had to take a shot while it was open. I know you aren't stupid but I do question the reasoning you use when you vote, it seems more and more people are voting based on party line rather than issues and it begins a disturbing trend if it continues.
We are on a downhill slide as it is I just hope we can pull up before it is too late no matter who gets the job done.
