Wrong. *The family making 50k got a 48% reduction in taxes. *All of
the other giveaways are phased out by the time you hit $200k or so.
You just don't want to see (or are incapable of seeing?) the big
picture. *But you are a good parrot of the liberal lies.

ah. i see you don't know how to do percentages

a guy making 50K gets a tax cut of 772. *that's 1.5% of *income

The top 20% of taxpayers have a larger tax liability under the Bush
tax cuts than they did before the cuts.

the FACT is that the wealthy get a BIGGER tax cut under bush than the
middle class does.

i just gave you the figures AND the reference. where are YOUR numbers?


The bottom 80% all have a
smaller tax liability.

actually they dont the ultrawealthy have a 15% tax rate, and, with
write off and deductions have cut their tax liablity in half over the
past 10 years.

And within that top 20%, the top 5% is the
only segment who's liability went up, meaning if you made $136k or
less your liability stayed the same or went down. So, the top 5%
shoulders a larger percentage of the tax burden after the cuts than
before the cuts.

and they should. their incomes went up 500% in the past 30 years. the
middle class had NO increase at all. none.

they SHOULD pay...plus they engineered this disaster. let them pay

you right wingers just love to defend the rich. they **** us like
we're $2 whores, but in your mind, the middle class is nothing more
than sheep to be slaughtered


See table 4 at http://www.taxfoundation.org/news/show/323.html

The top 20% pays 81% of the taxes, and the top 5% pays 60%. Stop your
whining.

more rightwing bull****

james surowiecki, writing in the august 16 issue of 'the new yorker'
points out the following:

-between 2002 and 2006 the bottom 99% of incomes grew 1.3% per year in
real terms
-the top 1% grew TEN PERCENT A YEAR in the same timeframe
-the top 1% has seen its share of national income double
-the richest 1% has 23% of the nation's income
-the richest 0.1% has seen their income TRIPLE in 5 years
-the richest 0.1% earn as much as the BOTTOM ONE HUNDRED TWENTY
MILLION PEOPLE

so you right wingers sit here defending the rape of the middle class
while spouting your bull**** about how rough the rich have it.

you're ****ing idiots. really
