Because they are stupid.
Rank and file Republicans want to pay higher taxes, so the idle rich can pay less.
you have something proving that?....or is this just more idle Chris talk?.....Because they are stupid.

Many of them are simply confused.

There are two reasons to vote Republican:
1) Because one is rich.
2) Because one has been deceived.
All Republican voters fall into one of those two categories.

[Except it is Republicans who are the bigger evil because of their blind belief in the pure free markets.
I've got news for you. We haven't had a pure free market in this country since the 19th century so I don't know where you get this idea that Republicans believe in "pure free markets."

I have more respect for those people than pussies like you who don't think you should have to contribute a dime and think you deserve everything to be handed to you for free at someone else's expense.

Hello!.. Republicans oppose rising taxes on the rich -- can you figure out who will pick up the tab?

Romney's official position is that he wishes to raise taxes on the poor and lower middle class while reducing taxes on the rich.
Pretty much for the same reason many people vote Democratic... SPITE.
I really think 75% of all votes are cast AGAINST candidates voters hate than FOR candidates voters like.
That's because we most often are left with a choice that is the lesser of two evils so you vote against the most egregious or you don't vote at all
Except it is Republicans who are the bigger evil because of their blind belief in the pure free markets. They are consistently wrong about how to manage the economy. First, they promoted deregulation that creates a bubble. When it bursts, those idiots push for austerity. In other words, instead of adopting a counter-cyclical policy, they push for a policy that amplifies market ups and downs, because they think that market is a perfect force.
For same reason they refuse to see the problem with market rising the income inequality -- for them it is all a "natural order" of things, never mind that it is destroying the society.
And yes, they are planning to cut the entitlement programs -- look at Paul Ryan plan for Medicare.

Was this 'official position' generated from an official proclimation? Or did you just make that up?

Just because we haven't had a pure free market, doesn't mean that republicans haven't been clamoring for it. "Reduce regulations, eliminate the EPA, eliminate this, eliminate that..." All in the name of letting private enterprise do what they want, when they want.

Social Security, Unemployment Insurance and Medicare are all paid into by the recipients. Welfare and Food Stamps are not. That is what those people meant.
Just like I said -- those poor Republican supporters are confused. Because these are government programs. The very programs that Republicans are so eager to cut.

For the past century there have been more Republican presidents than Democratic and yet our nation has gotten farther away from a truly free market than closer to it. The Republican belief in a free market is nothing more than rhetoric. Look at what they actually do, not what they claim to want.
