Pardon My Politics

Are we bitter? You bet we are! Why? It's not what Obama thinks. Causes? Many many many. Any solution? Probably not. There has been much ado about Obama's "bitter" comments. I consider myself a middle-class worker who lived and worked in the Midwest most of my life. I think lots of people get bitter, but not for the reasons Mr. Obama seems to think.

And even if you're not normally interested in politics, it's urgent (to protect your own financial interests) that you take 60 seconds and read this article, because it will affect you profoundly. "Capital gains taxes" are the taxes that you pay whenever you sell your real estate investment properties. Right now the capital gains tax rate is 15%. Obama has stated (and reaffirmed in a debate with Hillary Clinton a few days ago) that he wants to raise the rate to 28%.
