Does Obama even realize what a wind-fall tax on Exxon-Mobile would do?

[QUOTE="ugotthat, post: 2090335, member: 745637"] I see questions like this and I wonder who is the more naive. Obama who if elected has a massive deficit to worry about and all those Bush tax cuts, 2 wars and reckless spending that created it. That includes the tax breaks the oil companies should never have gotten in the first place. Or the fools who naively voted for Bush cheerfully thinking yes we can have shiny new war toys, 2 wars and a new homeland security dept and don't have to pay a dime for it (no/low taxes). Ah homeland security what are they doing that the FBI, CIA, NSA, Secret Service, local & state police depts, national guard and military intelligence among others couldn't do? Even the most economically inept person knows you can't make $4,000 per month and spend $5,000. But that's exactly what McCain who by his own admission doesn't understand economics is proposing. We have a $10+ TRILLION debt that isn't going anywhere but up. So far all anyone has done is ignore it especially the Republicans who magically think it will go away by reducing revenue further? Now thats idiotic, naive, irresponsible and just plain stupid. A worthless dollar and poor economy is proof of that. As an accountant I've yet to see anyone get out of debt by taking a pay cut.
