I think if McCain is smart, he makes a campaign commercial with Joe Plumber. And then he just crushes Obama’s answer. “Well Joe, unlike Barack Obama, I intend to let you and every other hardworking American small businessmen and women, to keep more of what you earn by being PRODUCTIVE, HARD-WORKING people that MAKE THIS COUNTRY THE GREAT COUNTRY THAT IT IS! And damn if I’m going to raise your taxes! I’m going to fight to LOWER your taxes and get government OUT OF YOUR WALLET! IT’S YOUR MONEY, NOT THE GOVERNMENTS, NOT ANYONE ELSE’S. IT’s YOURS, JOE, And I’m going to fight for you to keep more of it.
And the logical reasons for having Joe keep his money are many. He will be most likely to continue spending that money in responsible ways by...
1) using the money to hire more workers so others can not only share the wealth but help create it, or at least save up more money for hard times.
2) not using the money on an inflated mortgage which he can’t afford.
3) not gambling, doing drugs or prostitutes or the many other non-productive ways of using money.
4) not giving more money to a government agency which will take out a big cut for operating expenses and hand out the minimal remainder to buy votes.
