I would tell Joe not to follow Mr. McCain. This guy is selling your future to save his haven. I did a little comparison on taxation. McCain's income (his wife's?) of 4.6M$ made him pay 1.1M$ in taxes. This is by far, far cheaper than the taxation in an average Swiss City as Zürich with a woldwide reputation as a tax haven. Here Mr. McCain would have to pay 1.6M$. Amazing. (In the best of the Swiss tax havens, where only millionaires live who are doing well, it would be only 965K$ ...) So, Joe Wurzelbacher, be aware, you are going to rescue Mr McCains own low tax haven in the US and not yours! If Mr. McCain pays 0.5M$ more taxes, you'll also be able to put something on top to get the country out of the mud, won't you?

This "plummer character" does not even believe in Social Security system and not only that, he failed to pay his taxes in previous years. Wow! I'm trying to make sense out of this.

Joe the plumber NEVER said he was a business owner that's the problem with you Obama followers you don't REALLY listen. He said he is a plumber that WANTS to buy the business he is working for. Just because he hasn't got a ticket doesn't mean he's not a plumber. My husband WAS a carpenter for 6 years working in that trade before he got his papers and was a licenced carpenter. That doesn't mean he wouldn't have called himself a carpenter during those 6 years! Just because he owes taxes DOES NOT MEAN HE WON'T PAY THEM! At the end of every tax year we owe Taxes that take a sometime to pay off. It happenes and yet OBAMA wants us to pay more! Oh I know you'll all say but only if you make 250,000 or more THAT IS IB.S. Simple economics if you tax big business and corporations they just turn around and up their prices so WE ALL PAY. OR worse yet the move their opperations to China or India or Mexico and lay you OBAMABOTS OFF! YOUR FRIGGEN NUTS TO THINK YOU CAN RAISE ANY TAXES IN THIS ECONOMIC CLIMATE! Yeah your all nuts!

The argument is vague and has no substance, but gets Obama on defensive. That is all McCainn wanted and surprisingly succeeded to some extent. But to take it further is going to backfire badly. In Joe´s case there is no substance really. I think this shows that McCainn is out of substance and therefore he tries to make subjct from a tiny detail.
