well you and I may not consider that upper class but the tax code does.
So when a politician says that, it makes me cringe.

Maybe the luxery tax wasn't the most phenomenal idea ,but there are other areas to take from ( not just from the so called upper class). Maybe an annual millionair tax or something based upon a scale.

Good to see someone against our current welfare system. We need to get people off their asses and into work. ( less people with free time would probable mean less crime).

I am generally considered a rebublican but the going to mars thing is oOo:
What a waste of money. As you said earlier, put something into the educational system. AND FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, GET OUT OF NAFTA to keep jobs here.
