13. Wow the gulf between $75K and $100K is jaw droping

Try "married, one-earner" with 1 dependent, then try $75K and you get: "Your Obama Tax Cut is: $478.92 John McCain would tax you $37.33 MORE than Barack Obama."

Then try "married, one-earner" with 1 dependent, then try $100K and you get: "$1,820.73 "

Shit, I need a raise.

17. John McCain is actually propsing a TAX INCREASE

I know I've said this before, but we have to get the word out!

John McCain's health care plan would make all employer health care contributions TAXABLE!
And, the average employer contribution for a family of four is $12,500.

Please pass this along. People must understand that John McCain is out to literally ruin them!

26. "John McCain's health care plan would make all employer health care contributions TAXABLE"

I don't recall hearing this. Can you point me to a source? Thanks.

34. Sorry for the delay, here it is:

But, McCain told a health care forum sponsored by the Kaiser Family Foundation: "There's no reason for us to remove the employer tax incentive. I think that should stay exactly as it is."

<snip>

Under the plan, employees who have employer-provided health insurance would be taxed on the portion of their coverage that their employer pays. Aides say those costs would be offset by providing tax credits of $2,500 to individuals and $5,000 to families. They said low-income and middle-income people would benefit from the changes the most, while people in the top tax bracket and whose employers pay $15,000 or more of their health insurance costs would break even or pay higher taxes.

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/21575477/

A New Tax on Working Families. McCain wants to shift the burden from employers to workers. He will make health care premiums part of taxable income, essentially creating a new tax for working families.

Increases Costs to Workers. The modest tax credit McCain wants to give people to cover his new tax would cover less than half the average health premium, leaving workers to pick up the difference. Also, by promoting high-deductible Health Savings Account (HSA) plans, which provide fewer benefits at higher costs, he will make the high costs of individual insurance even worse.

http://www.aflcio.org/issues/politics/mccain_healthcare.cfm

To see what that would mean, consider McCain's health care proposal. He says he would treat employer sponsored health benefits as taxable income, while giving individuals a tax credit for the insurance they buy. On its own, taxing employer insurance just like wages would be a huge tax increase—OMB estimates in the neighborhood of $1 trillion from 2009–2013. To many on the right, that alone would violate the no-tax pledge.

So, these are just some of the articles I could find, but it's obviously a part of his plan that no one is talking about...

21. Wonderful! I am going to blog this at barackobamawatch.com

[Beaverhausen]

22. $481 for me!

cool!

[Dawgs]

23. Nice, but that calculator (and website) needs some work.

Why would a single person making 100,000 not get a tax cut under Obama, while the same person would get 2000+ back if they made 200,000? That doesn't seem correct to me. Am I wrong?

[Abacus]

24. Awesome, going in the sig line

Thanks!

36. I don't want a tax cut

In the middle range, but I don't need the cut. I need a better government. If we can stop the military industrial complex and save the money that way, I'll be glad to take the cut.
