"That's the thing though, he isn't pushing for higher taxes. Don't you watch the news?"
Said the most ignorant, illiterate, deaf man on the earth, ever? Do you want me to link you to times he's called for it? I could find you hundreds of links within an hour or two. Hundreds. And you claim 0? He's literally called for higher taxes this week. He's called for higher taxes last week. The only times he hasn't called for higher taxes, he hasn't spoken.
Add to this his claims of desiring deficit reduction and basic math skills, and you can logically conclude with certainty that he wants higher taxes on all, not just high earners. It's absolutely necessary to meet his claimed goals of deficit reduction.
And even if you discount his claims of desiring deficit reduction, there's the accounting certainty that debts will be payed, one way or another. That amounts to, without reducing spending or increasing taxes, printing money. Which is effective taxation.
So, literally, any way you want to look at it, he wants to raise taxes. And, even without using one's brain to understand what I just explained--that he wants to effectively increase taxes, NO MATTER WHAT--there's the simple fact that he's literally said, hundreds of times, he wants to increase taxes. Not complicated. It's not a contentious issue to recount what he's said. Are you high? Seriously, I seek knowledge of what's led you to say such an astoundingly ignorant, factually false statement.
"It's also gone up over 4,000 points since he took office in 2009, so his effect on the stock market is still quite a ways in the black."
This is about the most massive over-generalization ever. Do you understand the effects on the markets when the Fed prints money? Do you understand that even people increasing their worth in dollars lose? Do you understand who gets rich when the Fed hands them money? It's not the American people. Pure dollars invested in the markets are not inherently a sign of economic health or stability when trillions of those dollars are freshly-minuted Fed handouts.
Obama could print more and have the markets rise again tomorrow, but it'd be a bad thing for everyone in America and everyone (other than his cronies) invested in the market.
"I hope you're not saying raising taxes on the wealthy and lowering them for middle class families and small businesses is a tax increase. Because then I'll be very angry at you."
That depends on the metrics of how much he raised them on what levels of income. Duh. I hope you didn't just overgeneralize that... nevermind. You did. Complete nonsense.
You'll be angry at someone for doing real math and evaluating the truth, as opposed to propaganda and class warfare? Enough said.
"They won't if congress republicans pull their head out of their butts Yell. That remains to be seen though."
They will either way--they're demanding to. Plus, they already have. Do you have any idea what you're talking about? Or do you just make stuff up on the presumption that we're stupid and we can't cite sources for all of the increases already enacted during Obama's presidency, with his signature, and his proposals for more increases? Rhetorical question, FYI.
