“I think you’ve got to add the 9-9-9 up, get to 27 percent, and that’s probably what poor and middle-class people will end up paying once the thing is implemented,” Axlerod said.

Ax should do a little reading before opening his piehole. One of he 9s is a BUSINESS TAX. It'll be a cold day in hell when poor people are paying that....especially under this business hostile admin.

He also is probably parroting the talking point about it raising taxes on certain individuals. He'll say that, but neglect to mention they pay ZERO federal tax now. Asking for 9% isn't much.

Oh, Alexrod knows that is the case. He's just parroting a meme that I heard another leftist use soon after Cain won the Florida straw poll. The guy, who is one of the leftists who sometimes appears on Hannity, and who is certainly smart enough to understand 9-9-9, basically said: I don't know about this 9-9-9 plan... 9+9+9=27. That adds up to a lot of tax.

Alexrod's statement reveals how they will try to present this to the less-educated masses by trying to fool them into thinking that Cain is proposing a new 27% tax on them -- knowing that some of them will believe it.

It's shameless for them to lie like this, but they ARE leftists after all.
