I'm certainly not going to criticize anyone for needing to look out for themselves. We all need to do some of that.
As for taxation, my own personal feelings have always been that if some actual *good* can be done with those funds...helping to feed, shelter, medicate and and educate those who are having difficulty on their own, then tax away. But, otoh, if it's going to fund a pointless war, for example, then I'd rather they kept their mitts off my hard-earned money.
We need a new question on our tax forms: "Do you want your money to be put to humane, or inhumane, purposes? Check the appropriate box below."
Anywho, I'd just say, remember that this election is about more than taxation, way more. Even if McCain were to lower taxes--and that's a big friggin' if--in what other ways would he continue the damage being done to the nation (indeed, to the world) by the Republicans? What price would we *really* be paying to keep some extra money in our pockets?
