Following an historic election, we take a moment to examine just what an Obama presidency will mean to the United States – what we have to look forward to, and how he will deal with our current financial crisis. And according Jim Davidson, some of the numbers just don’t add up.One of Obama’s prime campaign planks has been his promise to mercilessly raise taxes on the “rich,” a group initially defined as those making more than $250,000 per year.

The Economic Growth and Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2001 generated a $1.35 trillion tax cut for the wealthy. By 2009, estates exceeding $3.5 million will be taxed phase out completely by 2010. For this reason, some have called the 2001 tax cut… Continue reading

“… if the laws be so voluminous that they cannot be read, or so incoherent that they cannot be understood…or undergo such incessant changes that no man who knows what the law is today can guess what it will be tomorrow.”

Studies have shown that reducing complexity–for… Continue reading
