On Taxes

A common concern from folks who should otherwise support Obama - He's going to raise taxes. This graphic explains that. We can't keep borrowing on the backs of the next generations.

The graphic shows that families with annual income over $600k will be impacted. Are those the voters you're concerned about?

In sheer numbers I don't imagine that's significant? Based on data from the US Census Bureau, 1.7 million households or 1.5% of all families have an income over $250k.
