Vice Presidential Debate

I think that John McCain and Barack Obama are wrong because we really need a GREAT economical plan to help boost the economy up again. Senator McCain thinks that the government should not get involved. I think he is wrong because otherwise how are the banks going to start up again?

I think that with the taxes, John McCain is wrong because he voted for major tax increases 477 times, and Americans do NOT need major tax increases. This would just kick more people out of their houses and make the economy worse. Obama is wrong because he voted for taxes 94 times also! We need an increase, but not a large one. We need just enough to fix the economy.

For the war in Iraq, I think John McCain is wrong because he doesn't want a clear time for withdrawal of the troops. I think Barack Obama is wrong, though, too, because he wants to just withdraw the troops over a period of 16 months. I think we should fund less and less each month for about a year and a half and then eventually also decrease the number of soldiers in Iraq.

I think that the rich people should have to pay a maximum of 40% of their income but poor people should not pay more than 25% of their income.
