Oh terrific! Another version of the income tax in the name of simplification. When will they ever understand that the whole notion of a simple income tax as a way of efficiently raising the federal government's revenues is a complete oxymoron? We have been trying to do this for almost 90 years now and it is a complete and absolute failure!

A tax plan designed for the Adams family ???

I believe any credit/refund should be the result of taxes having been withheld, and tax refunds should not be made into another government "entitlement" program. These prostitute politicians are all sickening.

If one of the Dems had the gonads to talk about eliminating the income tax and replacing it with a consumption tax, Bush wouldn't stand a chance. That in its self indicates it matters not who the president is.

[GraniteStateConservative]

Yeah, but people don't understand economics. They view it as zero sum. The more they get "back" from the government, the better. Period.

So now that I have finally raised my kids under the tax burdens, I get screwed again to help raise my neighbor's kids while that rabbit pays nothing.

Sounds too much like Bill and Hill.

The Gen’ral

I‘d say that you’re invalid,
Even though you served.
The Clintons really like you,
That’s why I am unnerved.
You seem to be a sissy,
Too light in your old loafers.
I’d say it seems for Bill and Hill,
You’re just one of their gofers.
Retired your stars and that is best,
For you’ve not got a clue.
I’d vote for Sharpton, Gen’ral Clark,
Before I’d vote for you.

Relief for working families will be fully paid for by closing corporate loopholes and by a five percentage point rate increase on income greater than $1 million per year. The rate increase will only affect the top 0.1 percent of taxpayers. 99.9 percent of taxpayers will not pay a dime more.

More lies for the unwashed, uninformed class envy crowd. More "soak the rich" yammering. The people that will be the object of the taxation are the same people who employ the people that dumbass claims he wants to help. The solution to the increased tax burden is to layoff a proportionate amount of payroll burden or outsource to reduce labor costs while maintaining the same level of productivity. Either way, more taxation equals more unemployment.
