The report by the centrist Tax Policy Center found that Romney's tax cuts would boost after-tax income by an average of 4.1 percent for those earning more than $1 million a year, while reducing by an average of 1.2 percent the after-tax income of individuals earning less than $200,000. ... Romney's tax proposal also includes cutting some taxes on investment income Which is already far lower than tax on EARNED income. Looks like he is just looking out for himself and his multi-millionaire buddies.... The only sure way to survive a canopy collision is not to have one.

This automatic equivalencing of the wealthy with "job creators" is totally bogus. Many of the wealthy have proven to be job destroyers. How many jobs have been lost on account of the actions of very wealthy Wall St. execs since 2007? How many has Bain outsourced? But keep drinking the GOP Kool Aid....

Our politicians in their pathetc efforts to cater to {anyone that may vote at least once or twice (or more) or even have an effect on voting}Those that donate large amounts of money to their campaign in order to get what they want from the government to have a society where those voters contributors are fooled into thinking they are free to steal without paying taxes and all their whims are catered to has gotten us into the mess we are in.

A lot of right wingers really do think there's a large group of people out there popping out kids just so they can stay on welfare and buy big screen TV's. A lot of left wingers really do think there's this monolithic rich upper class who gloats over all the peons they can fire that day (while laughing all the way to the bank with Shah's money, of course.)
