So voting for McCain because you're against the tax increase for the top bracket is pretty pointless, because that rate is going to go up anyways.

How much is the top bracket?

Here in Denmark I have to pay 60% TAX of the money you make over $72.000.

So if I have a let's say $200k annual income I pay 60% to the state of the $128k and standard 45% of the $72k

I hardly think you guys have anything to bitch about

BUT on the contrary we dont have homeless people, free medical care for everyone and a social security system that in general works very well. But damn we pay for it
