He is a liar if he says that, He is proposing a SS tax increase.and a Medicare/medicade tax increase, and an increase of the capitol gains tax. all of those will effect MILLIONS of people who make less than 250k. Not to mention the fact that for the most part it is the people who make over 250k that Employ everyone else. So his New taxes on the "rich" with have a direct negative effect on Job creation and our economy. The Capitol gains tax increase will have an even more direct negative effect on our Economy.
Also he is lying because he will let the Bush tax Cuts expire, and despite the lies told about those all the time, Everyone got some sort of tax cut out of those. Yes it is true the rich got more, but everyone got something. Allowing them to expire is indeed a tax increase. He is simply using samantics when he claims it is not a tax increase, because when they expire, your taxes will go up!!
I do not expect any of you partisan Democrats to agree with me on any of this, and I will not argue with you about it. It is simple economics, and an undeniable fact as far as I am concerned, and wasting time arguing with poeple who will refuse to accept reality is a waste of time IMO.
