McCain Voted AGAINST the Bush Tax Cuts
MR. RUSSERT: Will we have to increase the size of the deficit in order to expand the military?
SEN. McCAIN: Oh, I think there’s one thing that’s obvious about this, is that we are going have to ask for more money after the election, and it’s going to increase the size of the deficit. And, again, maybe we’re going to have to make some tough choices. You know, during the Vietnam War, they accused Lyndon Johnson of employing a strategy of guns and butter. Well, now we’re employing the strategy of guns and pork. Look at the highway bill that had 3,000 pork-barrel projects on it, including bridges to nowhere in Alaska. So we’re going to have to make some tough choices on–budgetary wise, too. We can’t do everything we were planning on doing; otherwise Medicare goes broke, Social Security goes broke.
Alan Greenspan, as you know, a couple of weeks ago said that we’re going to have to change the benefit for retirees. Do you know a politician that’s going to vote for that?
MR. RUSSERT: Since the Civil War, every president who has been at war has increased taxes. Should the president consider postponing his tax cut?
SEN. McCAIN: I would have–I voted against the tax cuts because of the disproportionate amount that went to the wealthiest Americans. I would clearly support not extending those tax cuts in order to help address the deficit. But the middle-income tax credits, the families, the child tax credits, the marriage tax credits, all of those I would keep.

4 out of the 5 wealthiest people in congress are democrats.
Herb Kohl (D-Wis) $219,098,029
Jane Harman (D-Calif) $168,651,649
John Kerry (D-Mass) $165,741,511
Darrell Issa (R-Calif) $135,862,098
Jay Rockefeller (D-WVa) $78,150,023
In fact these dems are so wealthy that their combined wealth is more than all the republicans listed in the top 25 wealthiest members combined.
Why are democrats so wealthy?
Because they are smart. They know the key to success in America. Why are the Republicans so afraid of them and of letting hard working Americans rise above? Why do the Republicans want more Americans to fall into poverty? That is what is happening with the destruction of the middle class. Very few rise above. That’s a fact.

Mainly monetary wise.
And does the city/town have an area that has somewhat large houses?
I need it for a setting in a narrative I’m writing for English.
I don’t know the wealthiest but Far Hills would rank right up there. Far Hills is where Malcolm Forbes (Forbes Magazinre) had his 40 acre estate. The median household income for all of New Jersey is $57,338. The median household income for Far Hills is $112,817 while the median income for a family was $149,095.
The USGA is headquartered in and has its museum on a former 60 acre estate in Far Hills.
