Obama Wants a Tax Increase

Just the title of this article is another silly parody of real news. It is just like Warren Buffet proclaiming that he should be paying more taxes (while he has spent plenty protecting himself from the government he claims to want to donate more to). But Obama thinks that by raising the Social Security tax we will solve all of the issues with Social Security.

According to Obama:

"I think the best way to approach this is to adjust the cap on the payroll tax so that people like myself are paying a little bit more and people who are in need are protected," the Illinois senator said.

People like MYSELF. Of course Mr Obama forgets that he isn't really in the Social Secutity retirement systen at all. He has a US Federal Government Pension, unavailable to the rest of us. His comments are at the very least disengenous and I will leave it at that.
