Re: Dem vs Rep Tax Cut Plan in Graph form!
yet a chart was posted showing people who do not pay income taxes getting a tax cut, so talk about smoke and mirrors? What bothers most conservatives is the fact that people like you seem to care more about what someone else makes rather than trying to figure out what to do about an out of control govt. that wastes trillions of tax dollars? Apparently you believe the govt. needs the money more than the taxpayer regardless of the income level and tax rates. that just doesn't make any sense.
We have a consumer generated economy and those rich people that you seem to hate are part of that consumer economy. They spend money just like you and probably more of it. why would you take money out of their pockets to give it to a bloated federal govt? The passion for class warfare should be concerning to all Americans and the appetite for additional govt. spending on the part of people who don't pay any Federal Income taxes should be a concern for all. that is unsustainable.
Smoke and Mirrors. There is no way in hades, you can determine someones income by looking at tax data, sorry you just can't. Reason: All that's available is ADJUSTED Gross income (AGI} not Gross Income. We all know that the richer someone is, the more legal ways somebody has to hide their income, don't we?
The table tells you the truth, but you interpreted it wrong when you wrote:
