Small enough to raise taxes on all income below $100K by 5 percentage points? Or on all income above $250K by 12.5 percentage points?

What's one percentage point mean to you? To the Feds, it means a lot.


And to the state of our economy it means a lot.

Consistently and without fail, when we raise taxes we damage our economy. When we cut taxes, we help our economy.

We are now locked into a stream of never ending tax increases, even if we got the liberals out of power today. Given another year there is no telling what the damage will be.

Sorry, I'm confused. 5%, 12.5%, 1%? What are you talking about?
