re: Disposeable income isn't taxed. Income is. Duh. When dual income parents with three kids have zero or negative disposable income, while the "rich or near rich" get tax cuts to increase their disposable income, there is something wrong with the system. re: And in many cases the federal tax system is tilted in favor of the poor even as a percentage of disposable income. Many of the poor pay zero in income tax, or even a negative income tax as they get a refundable earned income tax credit. You wern't talking about the "poor" when you said: Anyway the tax system still continues to favor the non-rich over the rich and near rich. On a relative basis, disposable income / income, it certainly doesn't. The lower middle class is getting in serious trouble while the upper classes are benefiting from Bush tax cuts. And the deficits grow to records, while Bush spends like a drunken sailor on war and nation building, new entitlement programs that benefit the suppliers not the end users, and massive pork. He's the worst fiscal steward I remember. Do you call yourself a conservative or a neo-conservative? Or just a partisan? John
