That’s what Bush did?

And he’s a GOP person?

To the concerned taxpayer a breakdown of federal income tax does not accurately define the tax burden shared by all.  State income tax, numerous federal, state and local taxes hiding in our utility bills, federal and state fuel taxes, sales tax, development taxes, property tax, and the inumerable list of taxes disguising themselves as “fees” are not to be excluded.

Yep.  And you, more than once, joined our other leftards in describing the Bush tax cuts as “Tax Cuts for the Rich.”

HG,

There are indeed a host of other taxes beyond the federal income tax.  One should note, however, that President Bush only has real influence with regards to federal taxes.

RG,

True enough.  I left out the federal capital gains tax (it’s hard to remember them all). 

Your point about the leftard chorus is dead on.  These imbiciles have sung that tune without any regard for the fact that it’s not true.  That’s where political speech is at these days, especially on the left… little to offer but talking points which rely on ignorance.

What is the percentage of income rise in relation to that tax burden? Thats the real question. If the incomes of the top 1% or 50% has risen in accordance with those persons income, then this is a non-issue. This sort of study and those like it from the left are usually just pieces of data meant to enflame, incomplete in that they dont state the info needed to see the real story. Probably, the 1% or 50% has had a signifigant rise in income, while the lower 1/2 has stayed level or dropped after inflation and other factors are accounted for.
Both sides like to use this sort of data. The left is especially good with these sorts of cherry picked data slices. They usually only tell part of the story, just like this one.
Another made up non-issue meant to pit us against each other and distract us.

porker,

We’ll have to wait for the full figures to be released to make that comparison.

Overall lower wage earners have improved.

However if you don’t care to hold a job then you’re probably not doing better.

Too flipping bad.

What’s going to happen to US industry when the global warming extremists like John McCain double the price of electricity?  I would think all these factories will close and set up in countries where they aren’t scared of technology.

Overall lower wage earners have improved.

Would like to see the true numbers with all factors taken into account. Maybe true, maybe not. The problem is you cant trust the info cuz somone is always trying to lean it to one side or the other.

That’s why you lefties are too dumb to understand the difference between tax cuts and tax rate cuts.
You have been falsely demonizing tax rate cuts for all these years.  Que stupido!

By decreasing the amount of tax oppression on each individual taxpayer, more prosperity is produced, resulting in higher tax revenues to the Treasury.  It’s simple econ, really.

Hope and change, in a free world, are the private possessions of motivated individuals.
