I know it is endlessly brought up how Obama is going to cut taxes for 95% of working families.

And fleur, I assume you know that Obama can't cut state taxes, and the tax cut for 95% of Americans he's been talking about is income tax.


So, like so many of his other promises, it simply doesn't add up...

The "33% of Americans don't pay taxes" stat is misleading, as it doesn't include Americans who work enough to pay payroll taxes, but who don't earn enough to pay income taxes.

I'm not being difficult at all. I merely asked you to explain your view, I truly don't understand how Obama's tax plan does anything good for the economy. The fact that you won't defend your stance without personal attacks leads me to believe you don't understand either.

"BUT, I think most all states have STATE Taxes, and or county tax or Real Estate Tax."

Ok, if your State doesn't have a State income tax, then it's getting it's revenue from some other sources.
