Tax cuts for the rich? Better get a new set of talking points, since the "rich" are paying more and more. Who's going to get the tax cuts, the people not paying anything?
No. The facts show the rich have been paying less and less in taxes over the years, and your taxes are darn low, too. Your taxes are the lowest in 60 years. Have you thanked Obama yet? Thought not.

You still are ignoring the fact - I've brought it up twice, with proof - that the vast majority of people not paying taxes are deemed too poor to pay much in federal taxes.

Look at the Ryan-Romney budget. There it is, in black and white: Tax the Poor, Tax Cuts for the Rich.

You can have your own opinion, but tax rates are measurable fact.
