Helping those making $250,000 or more in light of the tax cut expiration

There has been much talk by politicians and pundits over how people making $250,000 a year will need the Bush tax cuts to be extended.

Now, it seems most people on both sides of the aisle agree that tax cuts for those making under $250,000 are needed during this recession.. But what about those making more than $250,000?

To be honest, I don't understand how someone making $250,000 can't make due on higher taxes.  
If you survived on an income lower than $250,000 (where a higher percentage of your income was going to housing, food, medical bills, utilities, etc.), and were able to grow to your current income level before, why can't you do it now?

You know that the US economy is suffering, and that investment and credit is needed for millions with incomes less than $250,000, many of whom can't may much in taxes due to lack of work.   Why are you not able to do your patriotic duty and start new jobs and businesses to help your fellow Americans out of the recession.

OK, I understand there may be extraordinary circumstances for some, such as taking care of special needs children or ill parents.  But my understanding is that current tax law provides deductions for these and other such expenses, so that your income would not fall into the $250,000+ category as far as tax bracket.

I have a solution for those who feel that the expiration of tax cuts would seriously hurt them, or more importantly, the economy as a whole.  I will loan you $1,000 for services at one of 4 recommended Christian financial ministries:

1. Crown Financial Ministries = Christian ministry founded by Howard Dayton and Larry Burkett
2. Christian Financial Ministries - recommended by Dave Ramsey
3. Good $ense - from Willow Creek Community Church
4. Gary Moore - Gary Moore and the financial seminary can offer advice on investing from a Christian perspective

If you are interested in getting that loan , please contact me at loan@more2ignore.com

If you feel the need, you may read the terms & conditions of the loan below:

1. You must follow the program laid out by one of the above 4 ministries.
2. You must prove to the ministry that you will be put into the higher tax bracket due to the Bush Tax cuts expiring.
3. One of the above ministries must confirm that they believe you will follow/are following their program.
4. Twenty (percent (20%) interest will be charged, compounded monthly. A different interest rate may be negotiated between lender and ministry only.
5. The money will be paid directly to one of the above ministries to help yourself on a path of financial stability (you will not receive any money, only services by these ministries up to $1,000)
6. You must help someone else in a comparable way once your financial situation is stabilized.

Let me know if you are interested in this loan. (Or if you aren't interested in the loan, but are interested in the help, you con contact the above ministries above, and see if they have any free resources for you).

Again, i must repeat, this is a serious offer. But only for those that meet the guidelines, and I can only have 3 loans out at a time.

I also challenge any politician or pundit who is serious about how the tax expiration will hurt the economy to find serious "victims", so that they may survive this economic calamity.

God bless you and the resources He gave you.

A Fresh approach to the 2008 campaign...

I am excited about the upcoming event hosted by Rick Warren & Saddleback Church. Barack Obama & John McCain will each be interviewed by Pastor Warren over a variety of subjects, including those that aren’t usually mentioned: poverty, HIV/ AIDS, climate concerns, and human rights. Most intriguing to me was what Rick Warren said about the focus: ““While debates typically focus primarily on the candidates’ positions and only secondarily on how they’d lead and make decisions, this Saddleback Civil Forum will reverse that ratio.”

While this forum being hosted by Christians is a personal bonus for me, it’s the idea that they are trying a different approach that’s gotten me enthused.


It will be LIVE on CNN this Saturday , starting at 7pm (CST), as well as MSNBC (Curious that FOX isn’t interested in broadcasting an event at a church)

I know I shouldn’t get my hopes up too much, but I am looking forward to a fresh look at the candidates. I would have liked to see some of the alternate candidates, like Green Party & Libertarian Party involved. But I think this will be helpful (and there is high probability that one of these two will be the next president)

I think the process of how they come to decisions is vital, and can help predict the out come of events, even if we don’t know what those events will be. After all, who would have know during the 2000 presidential election that we would have to deal with the aftermath of terrorists. And in the 2004 election, who would have guessed that the US would have to address a catastrophic natural disaster, which we are still feeling the effects of?

Would people have voted differently, had they known how the candidates come to their decisions?

I encourage you to watch…and if the format is good, communicate it to the world, especially the media. Let’s change the way politics is usually done, starting from our end.
