NPR: Palin On Obama And Small Biz

Palin On Obama And Small Biz

Palin said Obama's tax plan would raise taxes on millions of small business owners. McCain has actually put the figure at 23 million. This is false, according to factcheck.org.

23 million is an old census number for ALL businesses -- most of which employ at least hundreds of people. In addition, most people who run small businesses do not file as individuals but as companies.

In fact, Obama's plan would raise taxes on couples making more than $250,000.
