>>Yeah and 17% of $200,000 equals $34,000 tax cut and 33% of $200 equals $66 bucks. Real fair the poor slob gets $66 back and the fat cat gets back $34,000. It's amazing how people with money use numbers that have no relevance to actual cash when they compute benefits.

Hey screwball, what's amazing is how illiterate you Dems have to be to be Dems. You can't do math so you make it up.

"17% of 200,000 equals 34,000 tax cut". No dopey, that's not it. The highest get a 17% cut in their existing tax rate, not a rebate of 17% of their income. Under your current illiteracy, the "rich" - not Marc Rich - would have to paying at a 100% rate to achieve your results*. Of course, implicit in any Dem's view of government is the belief that all income belongs to them and that anything another person keeps is a "tax expenditure". So yours is a natural mistake, but a mistake nonetheless. (*Only billionaire Dem contributors get a 100% tax cut under Dems).

Could you be more stupid? A rhetorical question only, the answer is known.
