Well, at least the wealthiest...

Rick Perry’s plan to scrap the graduated income tax and replace it
with a 20-percent flat rate would call for deep cuts in federal
programs and grant a major tax cut for the wealthy by eliminating
estate and capital gains taxes while sharply lowering the rate the
richest Americans pay on the bulk of their income, which is now
set at
35 percent.

This guy is clearly the dumbest of all the Republican clowns running.

35 percent? Thats it? Boy, its no wonder the USA is screwed.

That's before all the deductions and loopholes built into the tax code
that favor the wealthy.

Obviously you must be a low contributer to society or you would know
your full of ****. Fact is middle-upper class and up pay the bills,
lower class just lay on their useless asses and pay zip. 47% of you lazy
*******s don't contribute enough yet want to persecute the 1% that pays
a lot.

Answer, unemployment and a crappy economy as why invest in greedy,
ungrateful, silly, envious, selfish *******s like you?
Get it right if you're going to use it.
I don't remember the published report but the majority of taxes are paid
by wage earners at about 45%. Corporations, the 1%, paid about 12% and
the rest from exise taxes etc.

I know those numbers are bull****. Lets try:

But will add this. In a zero rte economy, it also allows companies to
make less money and keep share holders on board.

The result is less income, less taxes.

Do you think GM is declaring taxes? With their 3 decades of losses carry
forward and continued screw ups you will never see taxes out of these
'nips ever.

Fact is, no income, no taxes.

Government shot itself in the head with fraud low interest rates.
Screwed the economy bad. With 20% unemployed, US companies earnings
minus past losses, well, kind of hosed the revenue side of government.

Just like killing the goose that laid the golden eggs.

Fact is US Fed Bernanke, and 0bama over spend, and the 2006 congress go
ahead for excessive money print fraud all pooched the American dream.
You have a confusion and ommission of some facts.
There is blaem to assign to all of them. It is not a dem or rep thing.
The figures were close and official releases. I can't find the cite
right now but they numbers are close. You have the Ownership Society as
viewd by the upper seats, of the 1%/Supply side Economics/government.
Then there is the herd. Social issues is all they are debating and
playing with except cutting the taxes of those already paying very
little already on hyge incomes.
The Flat Tax and Fair Tax are regressive taxes and the lower your income
is the worse they hurt. They would amount to uber rich paying virtually
no tax.
