You would also have to make it really shiny to get everyone's attention. :D
Though I must say, I appreciate commercials that actually say what they are out loud, since I tend to be doing something else during commercials, so I only hear them and never see them. It's amazing how often I'll be watching something and see a commercial I've heard 8 thousand times and never understand what it's for til I actually see it!

What about the other forms of taxation? I had read something about increasing the inheritance tax and the property tax, which would affect more than just the upper crust. Don't get me wrong, I'm not voting for McCain, but there was more to it than just income.

Well, the federal government doesn't tax property. That's a state and local issue, so that's irrelevant. And both are in favor of lowering the existing estate tax, but Obama wants to lower it less than McCain.
When you look at the aggregate tax plans beyond the income tax, Obama's plan favors the middle class by about three times what McCain's does. And considering that McCain claims that the offset for his tax breaks will come by decreasing spending, spending would have to be cut so drastically that they'd need to be around what federal spending was in 1950 (before we had a national highway system, medicaid, or medicare) if we ever wanted anything close to a balanced budget.
But, his party has been selling the country to China for years in order to pay for their deficit spending. No reason for them to stop now.
