There. Fixed it.
You are not gaining much ground, todays Washington Times, http://m.washingtontimes.com/news/2012/feb/17/questions-surface-gingrich-campaign-travel-payment/
My thoughts exactly. I gave up my career to stay home and raise my kids. What a slap in the face to women like me.
And you think that Rick Santorum is insulting to women?
Cutting corporate taxes in half is a good thing. Other than pandering, there is no justification for eliminating the capital gains tax.
In Europe were already seeing women performing better in the kind of jobs that are available in modern western countries.
Besides, government can do a better job raising children.
Good for you. Women (and the men that support them) deserve a lot of credit for investing in their children. Not everyone can do it, but those who can are doing a great thing. (IMO, of course)
I don't follow you here. "Flat tax" proposals come in a lot of flavors, and some are pretty loophole ridden. Some, in fact, are really not flat taxes at all, but rather somewhat bold tax simplification plans that try to claim the flat tax mantle for tactical reasons. That said, every "flat tax" proposal I have ever seen, including the self-advertised "pure" ones, has a zero bracket amount and then a flat tax on incomes above that level. How is this any different?
A flat tax or the fair tax are the ONLY options IMHO.
See tagline.
I agree, Santorum has to be taught conservative economic solutions because he is only to the right of Democrats. Go Newt!
For an “anti-tax” group they sure are complaining a lot about some wanting to CUT taxes. Nice progressive leftist use of the word “fair” thrown in there too.
I have 4 kids and we homeschool them. You have no idea what you are talking about.
Free your mind from the communist idea that human beings are nothing more than economic units. Life is not work.
I think we all know how families handled their financial burdens decades ago...
Decades ago we had a mostly intact nuclear family with a mother at home and a father provider. In every way, this country was better. It was growing and prospering, in contrast to the European model we follow now, which is decline, collectivism, and political correctness.
FAIRTAX YES!
Flat Tax NO! Because it leaves the 16th in place and it can then grow back into the cancer we have today.

The only part I have a major problem with is the manufacturer part, because it screams favoritism, and, how does one define “manufacturer”?
I would also like to see that the tripled child exemption is only useable if married filing jointly.
Romney and saint Rick will get eaten alive by thugbama. For me I am down to rp and newt.
Well, people would scream, but one way to keep it from encouraging the wrong people to have kids is to only allow the larger deduction if you are MFJ and both taxpayers are the legal parents (via birth or adoption) of the child in question, and otherwise, the standard current deduction applies.
Steals other ideas and solutions, and views every solution around Mega-Huge Government, regulation and restriction.
Rob from Peter to Pay Paul, big government mentality. And some here claim that this rank stupidity will bring manufacturing back to the USA that has already left. (And loving it in their new homes.) But more importantly, this is tailored to help the big Unions, who Santorum is deeply involved with and goes out of his way to support.
But by more than doubling the tax burden on other forms of industrial ventures, they will also leave as fast as they can.
This is typical Big Government, Union Loving behavior, from a failed Senator who was voted out for good reason.
Well, the nazi socialists agreed with JediJones’ notion that women should be in the workforce and leave the care of their children to the state and “professional caregivers.” All collectivists, socialists, and statists think that way. I disagree. I consider myself extremely blessed to be able to stay home and raise my own children.

#17 Under Adolf Hitler, the state started taking over the job of child care.
The following is more eyewitness testimony from Kitty Werthmann....
When the mothers had to go out into the work force, the government immediately established child care centers. You could take your children ages 4 weeks to school age and leave them there around-the-clock, 7 days a week, under the total care of the government. The state raised a whole generation of children. There were no motherly women to take care of the children, just people highly trained in child psychology.
Of course this is exactly what is happening in America today. Children are raised by day care centers and public schools, and most parents spend very little time with their own children.
