Re: Romney's tax rate is only half as high as the middle class pays
AND YOU cannot prove that lower rates hurt the economy. but I can tell you as an investor higher taxes hurt me and I tire of people with no skin in the game telling me I ought to pay more.
If you do not pay at least 200K a year in taxes you have absolutely no credibility telling those of us who do that we ought to pay more. We already subsidize government services for you
So what proof do you have that slightly higher capital gains tax rate hurts economic growth? And, how does the higher national debt that results from the lower capital gains rate help our economy?
