Thanks, Normal4me, I wasn't clear, but was really referring to this part, "huge tax breaks for the wealthiest Americans", and Susannah on post #56 addressed part of it.

This is such an effective charge by the left, repeated over and over, with seemingly little rebuttal from the administration spokesmen. The power of a lie repeated often enough makes it ring true. And no one knows who the wealthy are, except it ain't them!

Part of the tax breaks for the "rich" that the left complain about are the end of double-taxation of dividends.

This affects many retirees who have their pensions/IRA's tied to stocks that pay dividends. My mother, who pays no income taxes, will see her IRA benefit due to "dividend reinvests."
