In both you are contributing money from your bank, which is from your paycheck, which has been taxed. I know I'm obviously missing something.
You can deduct traditional IRA contributions from your income (effectively pre tax).

I think I got you. So say you make $100,000 and put $10,000 towards a traditional, you would essentially pay taxes that year on $90,000. If you make $100,000 and put $10,000 in a roth, you still pay taxes on $100,000 worth of income for that year. Right?
