Hillary: Time to Raise Middle-Class Taxes!
Aug 5, 2016, 10:54 AM

http://www.nationalreview.com/
Standing before an adoring crowd in Omaha on Monday, Hillary Rodham Clinton read from her teleprompter and shouted: “I’m telling you right now, we’re going to write fairer rules for the middle class, and we are going to raise taxes on the middle class.”
Real median household incomes have slipped under Obama, from $54,925 when he was inaugurated in January 2009 to $53,657 in 2014.
The latest Census Bureau data confirm this 2.3 percent slide.
Meanwhile, Democratic vice-presidential nominee Senator Tim Kaine of Virginia wanted to take things even further.
As governor, Kaine advocated a tax hike on those who aspired to the middle class.
He sought to increase his state’s bottom tax rate from 5.75 percent to 6.75 percent.
This would have socked families with annual incomes as low as $17,000.
Obama told a joint session of Congress in February 2009, “If your family earns less than $250,000 a year, you will not see your taxes increased a single dime.
I repeat: Not one single dime.”
Obama’s promise proved to be yet another lie.

actually, she said, "we aren't going to raise taxes on the middle class,"
way to go national review in getting this one entirely wrong, again.

and still can't figure out if she says "are" or "aren't" just before "going to raise taxes."
It will surprise no one to learn that "aren't" is the word that correctly describes her actual position on the issue.

Re: I think that was a simple slip up......

however, if you've read her tax proposal you'll quickly realize that
it would be a great time to be an accountant - booming business
opportunity. I can't believe with an overwhelming majority of Americans
that want a simpler tax code even if it means they continue to pay the
same amount that a candidate would propose that crap. I would have thought
she would learn from Bill's mastery of popularity polls as a policy driver.
