So Romney says that 47% are dependent on government and don't want to take responsibility for their lives and the parrots on this site say they want the 47% to have more "skin in the game" because they pay no taxes.
Yet, Romney says if he becomes president he will push through a 20% across the board tax cut.
Wouldn't a 20% across the board tax cut result in a greater % of people "not paying taxes"? Isn't that the very opposite of what republicans have been looking for? Wouldn't that mean more people who are "mooching" because they "don't pay taxes"?
Where is the objection to Romneys proposal? How do you support this sort of plan while at the same time criticizing people who you consider to be "moochers"?
First of all you're twisting Romney's words around. What Romney stated is that 47% of the population fall below the bar of paying Federal Taxes & they wouldn't be interested in his plan to lower taxes--on middle class Americans who do pay taxes--so there's no need worrying about them--they wouldn't be interested anyway. Now it came out wrong and the left twisted it into a different meaning--that Romney doesn't care about 47% of the population.
Now every administration--but this one--has noticed that if you let Americans keep more of the money they earn--they tend to spread it around through-out the economy thereby growing the economy--along with the tax base.

Another person who can't address what I asked. A tax cut for the people who do pay taxes will lead to some of them no longer having to pay anymore. Thus the 47% total increases. How are you ok with that?
No I did answer it. You grow the tax base through economic JOB growth. You just heard it in the above video. Lowering taxes on people who do pay income taxes will create job growth because they have additional expendable income in their pockets. The first President to realize this was John F. Kennedy--as he did it--and each and every time it worked.
