I sit in my chair everyday scanning through the numerous news channels.  I'm not bias, I watch CNN, Fox News, MSNBC, and Headline news.  Each and everyday I hear about how well Hillary Clinton is polling.  Hillary has already been named the Democratic nominee for the presidency.  Stack her up against the republicans and she looks like a winner.  My only question is.....WHY????

I just don't understand why so many people are willing to elect a person to the presidency that has admitted to record setting tax increases.  She has already said the rich will see increases.  Those darn Bush tax cuts to the rich that have helped keep the economy rolling must go.  The only question is what does she consider rich.  We know the capital gains tax is going up, no if, ands, or buts about that.  To pay for the increase in SCHIP she's all for raising the tax on tobacco.  Taxing cigs to pay for a health program raises some real serious questions that need to be discussed too.  What happens when people actually quit smoking because it costs too much to smoke?  How are we going to pay for SCHIP then?  I bet Hillary can find some tax that needs to be raised.

While we are on health care, let's talk about her mandatory health care rule.  So it's going to be law that everybody has to purchase health care.  Wow, that sounds great, but who's going to pay for those that can't afford it?  Oh...that's right, Hillary will give a tax credit to those that can not afford it on their own.  First of all, how is a tax credit in April, going to help me pay my health insurance in October?  It's not!  Secondly, whose gonna pay for those tax credits?  That's right,  those that can afford to have health insurance are going to have to squeeze a little more out, and pay for those that can't.  Isn't that special, not only do I have to pay for my government mandated health insurance, but I have to pay extra for those not insured.  Gee kinda sounds like that government mandated racket......car insurance.

So anybody can see Hillary is open and upfront of the fact that she's gonna raise taxes.  Now we hear rumors of a 50 cent per gallon of gas global warming tax and rumors of eliminating the home mortgage deduction.  What's next?

Somebody please explain to me why so many people are so willing to elect a person that is so definately going to raise our taxes?
