[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hi, I am Sandy, except my husband and I aren't doing as well financially as we once were and our kids go to public school.   I am like the OP in that I am not sure who to vote for.  I worry about the Supreme Court and whether Mr. Romney really can pull off a smaller government without catering to the right wing nuts.

I worry that my family cannot afford any more in taxes because I need to save for my kids college, even though my student loans aren't paid off. DH has a job that pays much less than he made during the last election.  Me too.

PP, you speak of $9K as being chump change.  I drive a 12 year old car and pray it will last until I can find the money for a new one.  I worry that Mr. Obama will not spend my $9K nearly as wisely as I would, and I wonder why, when I have made sound fiscal decisions and I am still afloat, I must pay for people that made bad financial decisions.  It's like lending my irresponsible brother $500 knowing he won't spend it the same way I would, might spend it on beer instead of bills, and I will never get it back.   Why isn't everyone dipping a little deeper into their pockets?[/quote]

I didn't say $9K was chump change.  But if you make 1/2 million per year, it's not devastating.  But based on your financial situation, the tax difference may not be much at all.[/quote]
