Today's Website O' Awesome is brought to you by
Alchemy Today, a burgeoning political blog:
ObamaTaxCut.comUsing data
compiled by the non-partisan Tax Policy Center and further
publicized in the Washington Post, Alchemy Today has created a widget that allows you to compare the tax cuts you would receive under the tax plans proposed by Obama and McCain.
It's actually quite fascinating. Under McCain's tax proposal, my husband and I would receive a $40 tax cut. Under Obama's plan, we would receive a $971 tax cut. Our present income would have to more than
triple before we'd get a better deal under McCain. Furthermore, we'd have to make more than $250,000 before Obama would increase our taxes.
The bottom line: If your combined household income is $200,000 or less,
you will pay less taxes under Obama than McCain.
Plus, widgets rock.
