**o you think a household family income of $63k makes a family rich?**

in some areas - extremely rich. in others - that's low middle class.

**A family with two minor, dependent kids and with a household income of $63k will get $1,100 /year off their taxes under the plan. Not bad.**

buffet could get over $300 million back and pay a 3% tax rate. IS THAT THE TAX SYSTEM YOU DEEM BEST FOR AMERICA?

YES OR NO. if yes, we agree with buffet. if no, we disagree.

**I think you are obsessed with what the 'rich' will get,**

i think you don't think. at least not too well, anyway. your simplistic approach to my view, which is similar to buffets view, would mean that buffet was obsessed with what the rich will get - which is absurd b/c only a handful of people have more than buffet. so much for clarity of thought. ad hominem sure is happy, though. -lol-

**although you dont seem to realize that any family earning over $70k is considered rich by Gephart and his Dem clan.**

it doesn't matter. is a tax system that gives one of the richest men in america a shot at a 3% tax fair. YES OR NO. be a man AND ANSWER.

btw, if a family making $70k isn't rich (and in many cases they aren't), just think how "rich" a family making $40k per year will is... who will eventually foot the bill for the buffet style $300 million tax break.

i'm obsessed with reasonableness and fairness. buffet's potential 3% tax rate isn't fair. it isn't reasonable. it is bad for america. it may be good for a few greedy folks who only care about themselves, though. america needs to be protected from those types.
