While I appreciate Brookhaven’s chart, my criticism still stands. The 9-9-9 plan increases taxes on seniors in numerous situations. Seniors vote, and in large numbers. The same can be said of multiple (large) voting groups. The 9-9-9 plan never sees the light of day if the person proposing it gets slaughtered in a general election because he wants to raise those groups’ taxes while his opponent wants to raise millionaires’ taxes. If anyone can explain how we win in that situation, I’m all ears. (Keep in mind, I’m probably voting for Perry in the primary still months and months away, but I will vote for Cain in the general if Cain wins).
Because you are wrong and using improper assumptions, just as HC said...
