Liberals want to get rid of tax breaks for the wealthy and large corporations. I support the tax breaks for poor and middle class individuals and families. So I say no.
............. and so why should you get tax breaks and other citizens should not?

Can you explain to me how taxes didn't go up for middle class people when my wife was informed by her state pension fund administrator that because of raised federal taxes they would have to be withholding another $190 per month? something happened and I think it was a tax raise or three or more.
In other words, let's expand social programs but let others pay for it.
No, you're twisting my words to suit your agenda. I am most definitely for limited government; NO Social Security, SSI, welfare, bloated military all over the world, corporate welfare, not offshore tax havens, no subsidies to oil cos and the like. I'd like to face the same tax burden as anyone else, but be treated equally under the law- live and let live, let me keep the $$ that I've earned.
Do conservatives that have trouble with logic repeatedly embarrass themselves with ironic examples illustrating just how poor their reasoning actually is?
Are conservatives who take tax deductions hypocrites?
Do you even know what hypocrite means? How do you figure that people who think taxes should be lower taking deductions to reduce their tax burden is hypocritical?
No, a liberal who thinks taxes should be HIGHER and yet takes deductions to lower his own taxes is being a hypocrite.
Why this thread is a complete failure, poll after poll shows THAT EVEN REPUBLICAN VOTERS DONT WANT CUTS TO THEIR MEDICARE. The biggest government program that we have, and they don't want to see their benefits cut. If you want to call liberals hypocrites, we need to make room for republicans also.

Look people, I know you really want to hate somebody so this is giving you an outlet for that, but there is no logic to be found in that argument. Do you know what a hypocrite is?
Doing one's best to minimize one's tax burden has nothing to do with what one thinks about how tax rates should be set. You all are essentially saying that no one can support any group without first giving all of their money to that group, because if in any way you have avoided giving more money to that group, then you must obviously not support that group, thus you are a hypocrite. It's sad that I need to sit here and spell this out for the lap dogs but here we are.
That would obviously depend on what it is for, you should ask specific questions if you are going to bother asking.
