A picture that sums it up nicely

Where does YOUR family fit on the scale?
Note that 60% of families are cramped into the bottom 3 categories.
Under Obama, our taxes will drop about $290 more than under McCain. Okay, it's not amazing, but I don't sneeze at nearly $300.
The overall average cut looks better under McCain, until you realize the lion's share is going to those making over $600,000.
When you put money in at the top, they sit on it or invest it overseas.
When you put money in at the bottom, they buy stuff and create a demand.
This is basic econ 101.
