Although he isn't saying who he will vote for, he claims to be an admirer of McCain and did vote in the Republican Primary. Go figure.
Joe is currently not earning anything close to $250,000 per year and since he is below that, would actually be able to save more money to buy the business under Obama's tax plan.
He has no intentions of buying the business anytime soon.
He doesn't have a plumbers license.
He does clearly have a problem with taxes; he doesn't pay them. Lucas county court currently has tax leins against ol' Joe.
The business which consists of him and the owner, doesn't make anywhere near 250,000 in profits so they would benefit under Obama's plan.
A 3% (36%-39%) increase in taxes on $250,000 is $7500 per year, $625 per month, $31.25 per day or $3.90 per hour. No one was going to work for $3.90 per hour anyway so the argument that he wouldn't be able to hire new poeple is moot.
In fact, under Obama's plan, for every person you did hire you would receive a $3000 tax credit which then only comes out to be $2.34 per hour assuming you hired one person and was making over $250,000 per year in profit...in a one to two man plumbing business.
The United Association of Plumbers and Pipefitters has endorsed Obama.
It all sounds very planted / Jeff Gannon to me...you know, without the gay prostitution web-site....as far as we know.
