Yes if you're a socialist.

No if you're for freedom.

Agree - 46.6%
Disagree - 49.2%
Don’t know - 4.2%

Can you imagine anyone who can’t decide which way to go displaying his ignorance by voting “Duh . . . I’m a dumbass and can’t figure it out, so I’ll say I’m undecided”?

Poorly worded poll. If read literally, I DO agree that Obama favors such a tax, which is what the poll actually asks.

I disagree! My daughter pays enough taxes! She’s a widow with one child. She gets to keep 1/2 of what she makes! I guess what she pays in taxes goes to Obama’s friends who sit at home collecting welfare for them and their 8 children....all with different fathers.

Sorry for ranting.
