Do you really expect the wealthy to coddle a tax increase in light of Obama's reckless stimulus? No how brown cow. The dog barks but doesn't decide when to go for a walk.
To whom did Obama's reckless stimulus go to?
Again, it is time to let the tax cuts from a surplus expire.
Incorrect. Keep in mind someone making above $250,000 will still benefit from the tax cuts on the portion of income below $250,000. So its only an increase on the portion between $250,000- $300,000, which with a standard deduction and the dependent exemptions is about $280,000. Throw in the 28% bracket being pushed upward, it results in a $767 difference for a family of four making $300,000 with the standard deduction, and a $0 difference for a family of four making $300,000 itemizing $15,000 each in property taxes and other expenses. This comes from the Tax Foundation btw.
I doubt that...I don't have a family of 4 nor currently own a home...but in this circumstance you described. So my taxes would go up ...regardless if it is a few hundered dollars or a $1,000...if I get a tax increase others should too. Bottom line, if 47% of Americans don't pay thant they should not be able to get more credits, nor free services. I don't get an additional 60K of services for what I pay.
It's funny (peculiar and hilarious at the same time) how people will argue that their personal circumstances don't make them wealthy, no matter how much they make!
The 550,000 is the mid range of the 300,000-800,000 that is in the report. The 700,000 is the mid range of the 400,000-1,00,000 that is in the report. All other numbers I quoted are in that report.
Name one number I mentioned that you can't find in the report, I will tell you what page to look on if you need....
btw, the 550,000 you are quoting, is the very SAME figure I quoted. Did you even look at the posting? Here, let me post it again..
568,000 for year 2011.. So you are quote the EXACT same figure I did.. Now look at year 2012, 2013, 2014, and tell me how many jobs are in question?
The 709,000 AGAIN are the average number of jobs over the NEXT 5 years!!! and again, thats the difference between a PARTIAL and a FULL tax cut extension perminantely.
