“How is raising my taxes going to make it easier for me to keep my head above water? “
Make it easier to find work at a decent-paying job. When businesses grow - and when they are not chased overseas by high taxes - everyone is better off. Being able to switch jobs if you wish because there are plenty of jobs out there is more valuable, long term, than $500 in taxes.
I already work at a decent-paying job. If my taxes go up for my current job then they'll also be higher at any other job I get at another company.

So people keep saying. I don't see where this will discourage companies from moving every job they can overseas. Not as long as the cost of their resources are lower.

Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't the President talking about how we currently have the lowest unemployment rate in years? Wouldn't that be an indicator that there already plenty of jobs out there?
The question is, why does the Republican Party have to raise ANYONE’s taxes? Government is too big and spends to much. If they have to “pay for” cuts in business taxes, why not CUT GOVERNMENT instead of raising my taxes?
