Still not really understanding.


Romney's tax plan involves making the disparity between capital gains and normal income even worse, not better. That was my point. Presumably not even you are in favor of that simply because it lowers taxes, right? That specific part of the plan - not tax cuts in general.

Thats fine. Your understanding isn't required.

I've stated my position. Reread it. I'll help

I am not voting for Romney. I don't agree with his stance here. I am saying in general cutting taxes is a plus in my book. Hold your feigned flooring, I know better and so do you.

Ok. Your original statement was not very clear and made it sound like you supported his plan to make the disparity even worse.

Well, sort of Tych. Last I checked Romney's economic platform is centered on cutting his own taxes even more.

I don't blame the guy for simply doing what the law is but I do blame him when he's done his best to get the law the way it is and keep it there or even to make it even more of a scam by cutting rates further.



Bingo!

tych has never wavered from his position on lower taxes always being better. as long as there are people voting entirely in there own economic self-interest, there will be a place for the modern republican party.

According to CNN

Yes, Mitt Romney paid far less than the maximum tax rate on his millions. But he's not alone -- 80% of Americans have an effective tax rate below 15%.

If you exclude SS and medicare taxes.

Romney's effective federal income tax rate is still above that of many Americans -- 80% of whom have an effective rate below 15%. That tax rate is higher when other federal taxes -- such as the payroll tax -- are included.
