Mr Frozenyo thinks a teacher making $35k pays a higher rate effective rate than Romney. Any further discussion is pointless. Clearly he is arguing just to argue. The effective tax rate on someone earning $35k is 10% if he is married. His highest marginal rate is 10%. The effective rate is 13% if single. His highest marginal rate is 15%. This assumes a simple standard deduction before credits.
Does this board have an ignore feature? I see no reason to engage in conversation or discussion with someone who is intentionally obtuse.
I can deal with a person who wants to debate ideology or a position based on facts. To make false assertions shows a lack of sincerity and desire to do anything other than spin an agenda.
Yes trapper, you can ignore me..In fact I encourage you to. You wont have to waist time twisting up words..WTF is it that everybody else's tax returns don't add up with your BS math? You can make all the excuses for a system and tax code that is designed to credit millionaires and punish low income wage earners. You can do that but I'm going to call you on it. The system is flawed and should be changed. So, ignore me PLEASE.

So, a progressive tax system punishes low income wage earners??? Wow, I thought I've heard it all.
Platitudes, Platitudes, and more Platitudes. With a few Liberal Buzzwords™ thrown in.
I had to laugh out loud at the remarks on student loans. Sky High Rhetoric. No Solutions. But I bet it stirred up the Losers who want their loans forgiven!

It is IRS math, and available to anyone who spends 10 seconds on the IRS website. Good luck in life, you are going to need it. As soon as I figure it out, you are in the bit bucket.
A literal flat tax would level the playing field for us all. Obama and all that claim to want to level things and yet they reject a flat tax are all huge hypocrites.
Flat tax would encourage folks to work harder instead of knowing that those of us that succeed the most will be penalized the most.
The CBO only answers the questions asked, ask the wrong question, you get the wrong results.
And gives estimates only.
