I'm lucky enough to be in the bracket which would see the highest increase in taxes under Obama's tax plan. I want to support him, but I'd also like to know that he plans to cut spending (especially in Iraq and on useless military programs) and balance the budget.

Baron is upset because Mahalo Daily, which is basically just a marketing vehicle for Mahalo.com, is arguably more popular than his entire business, Rocketboom.
