30% of their income would be taxed when it takes into effect.
THAT ISN'T FAIR.
My parents work HARD FOR THEIR MONEY.
Now nearly half is gonna be taxed, what the ----.
It's good that my mom and dad are going to be storing everything in overseas bank accounts though.

Let's say your parents make $100,000 per year. I'm not saying they do, I'm just taking a nice large round number.
Let's say the US has a debt of $1,000,000,000,000. I'm not saying we do, I know it's larger than that. Again, just a nice large round number.
It would take the entire yearly income of 10 million of your parents to pay off the existing debt. It's huge, and it's not going to go away.
%30 of $100,000 still leaves your parents $70,000. Unless you're doing something weird like buying a racecar or taking a summer-long vacation to Monaco, that's still a lot of money.
And it means that if there were 33,333,334 (33 million, 333 thousand, 334; or less than the population of the three largest cities in America and their immediate suburbs) people in America making $100,000 and nobody is making any more money than that, the debt is totally paid off and nobody's going broke. Now obviously it won't quite work like that, because the debt is still rising and taxes go to other places too, like libraries and schools and road construction, but you get the point.

And then you wonder why this country is in such a debt in the first place...

THAT ISN'T FAIR GHOSTY
OBAMA'S TAX PLAN ONLY EFFECTS FAMILIES WITH A 250K+ INCOME
I THOUGHT MY PARENTS MADE LESS, AND IT TURNS OUT THEY MAKE JUST AROUND 250K BECAUSE WE ARE GOING TO HAVE TO PAY THE FISCAL TAXES
THIS IS BULL AND NOT FAIR AT ALL
