Default Re: How much did you make last year?

I hate to ruin this thread but I wanted to echo what others have already said. As a pilot you need to educate yourself on which side of the issue candidates stand on.

The whole mentality that the Republican party lowers taxes and lets you keep what you earn just simply isn't true anymore. As a pilot, most likely (or hopefully) working under a union the choice should be fairly simple if your vote is based on what will be financially beneficial.

I spent the past four years studying economics. If I were a small business owner making 200-500k a year then I would probably vote differently.

The whole idea of giving money back to the business so they can reinvest and grow the economy is a crock of ########. How many CEOs make over a million a year? Are they giving money back to their workers or growing the economy? NO! They went and bought 2nd and 3rd homes inflating the housing market, making it beyond the reach of many. I am beginning to rant and getting red in the face, sorry.
Vote your profession!

Obama and Osama comparisons only prove extreme ignorance. A sad fact attesting to the education level of some in our country.
