Dishonest surveys
I just received a call from a survey company. The caller told me that if the tax cuts from 2001 and 2003 were rolled back, average residents of Colorado would see an increase in their federal taxes of about $2000. He asked, “knowing that, do you favor making the tax cuts permanent?”
The purpose of this survey was to instill fear in the public that their taxes will go up if we elect democrats. That fact is, if your income is over $250,000, your taxes will indeed go up. The tax cuts for the wealthy will be repealed under Obama and a congress controlled by the Democrats, but for the average Joe, our taxes are going to remain what they are.
So I told the caller that I didn’t believe his premise so I wasn’t going to answer his question. I was polite, though. He was just doing his job and probably hated what he was involved in.
