They will end up raising taxes. First, the "FICA" Social Security and Medicare wage tax will end up going up from 7.65 to, I figure 9.50% to cover all of the new people who qualify for their notion of Universal Healthcare, including the illegal aliens (imagine! A criminal breaks into our country and they get the same coverage that somebody who works an honest forty hour week does!)
Income taxes will likely rise from their current 15/25% levels to around 18/30%

Do you mean, what do they say they will do, or what do we believe they will do ?
Democrats have long been known for their tax and spend mentality. They also favor big government and lotsa social programs. You know the kind, give it to the poor and let corporate American find a way to pay for it.
Hillary will most assuredly try to have a national health care plan. When that happens, you can kiss quality health care good bye. Worse than that, national bankruptcy won't be far behind !

They can't do anything useful for the middle class, other than say they're going to punish the wealthy. They do know how to feed the fires of class envy. However, if it came to an unthinkable choice beetween the two...I would choose Hillary. Obama is a fool as pertains to foreign affairs.

They plan on keeping taxes on our middle class to one of the lowest rates in the world, as it currently is.
