HANNITY: Senator Obama on the campaign trail, and Senator Biden as well, they often criticize John McCain that his plan is he is going to continue the policies of tax cuts for the wealthy.
For those that maybe buy into that class warfare agreement or think why shouldn't the rich pay more, my question to you is the converse. Why does everyone benefit if the rich pays less or if everybody pays less in taxes? Why is that good for the economy?
PALIN: That is a great question. And everybody does benefit when government takes less from the people, no matter what their income bracket is because our businesses then and our families are able to keep more of what they're earning, reinvest in what they have as priorities.
That's how jobs are created and that's how we are going to grow our economy. But let me talk really quickly about our opponent's position on taxes.
Barack Obama has had 94 opportunities to be on the side of the American taxpayer and 94 times he has chosen to be on the opposite side. He could have either voted for tax cuts or at least not for tax increases in 94 times. He has chosen, I believe, the wrong position on those.
