Why Romney’s tax plan won’t cut the deficit - The Washington Post

This month, Romney said that his tax reform proposal is “very similar to the Simpson-Bowles plan.” How I wish it were. I will be the first to cheer if Romney decides to embrace our plan. Unfortunately, the numbers say otherwise: His reform plan leaves too many tax breaks in place and, as a result, does nothing to reduce the debt.

...

So although I give Romney credit for pledging to reform the tax code to reduce loopholes, his current proposal will not take us to the promised land. Our commission’s tax plan broadens the base, simplifies the code, reduces tax expenditures and generates $1 trillion for deficit reduction while making the tax code more progressive. The Romney plan, by sticking to revenue-neutrality and leaving in place tax breaks, would raise taxes on the middle class and do nothing to shrink the deficit.

Obama hasn’t gone as far in cutting spending, particularly in health care, as is necessary to stabilize the debt at a reasonable level and keep it on a downward path as a percentage of the gross domestic product. But in contrast to Romney, the president — like the “Gang of Six” and other like-minded members of both parties — has embraced the central principle of Simpson-Bowles: that America will turn the corner on its debt only if Republicans and Democrats come together to support a balanced deficit-reduction plan. For the numbers to work, both parties need to put aside partisanship.
 
Hey Tick Duck, many of us already know that Obama appointed Simpson-Bowles as 'window-dressing' at the time.

Why U foster lies???

Off-topic. Romney, the scumbag liar, said that Bowles endorsed his plan. That's a lie. Romney's plan cuts the taxes for the top brackets, while fucking the middle class. Got that, B. Kiddie boy?

The Simpson-Bowles Plan was null and void from the get-go as Obama appointed it (after hiring Bush's economic team).
I can agree that ANY endorsements are a moot point already. So why bring it up, Tick Duck, why?
(Unless you are a TOTAL partisan A-Hole!)

Because the lying piece of shit Romney, claims that Bowles supports his plan.
 
Erskine clearly hates Romney and loves Obama.:eusa_whistle:

Is that why Romney lied, and said that Bowles supported his tax plan?


He did....you are a liberal cock sucker.....you need to have some nonpartisanship

Bowles said that the Ryan/Romney plan would increase taxes on the middle class, and cut taxes for those making over $200,000/year. So go suck some more fuck juice out of Mitt's ass, you total loser.

It's amazing how terminally stupid the right wing is. the Mitt/Ayn Ryan plan will screw them and they'll think they're getting wined and dined.

And Romney's plan increases the tax on the middle class, and doesn't do shit about decreasing the deficit. Did you miss that part, whore?
