His plan would then have cut everyone’s rates by another 20 percent (for those that pay taxes, that is), repeal the alternative minimum tax, and get rid of the estate tax.
All of which favor the rich.
Your stance is ridiculous. How do you cut taxes for people that don't pay taxes in the first place?

That's exactly why your statement that Romney planned to cut taxes by 20% for everyone, underline yours, was meaningless.

Good luck with that. He'll dodge you until you just drop it. I'm still waiting for him to rebut my deficit/spending numbers but he keeps hiding behind wanting me to explain something that exists only in his mind.

Meh. Should have said "everyone that pays taxes", but I figured you would be smart enough to understand that as a given. Looks like I was wrong.

All you have to do is explain how inequality is healthy for any society in a very kind and respectful way and I'll make answer some questions.

Have and have nots are great when you are a member of the former...like me, and not a member of the latter...like you. But hell, the world needs ditch diggers too. Don't get too down on yourself.

All you have to do is prove your claim that wealth inequality is part of the GOP's platform.
And again, this has nothing to do with your rebut of the spending/deficit numbers I provided from the White House's website. Your continued running scared from it is almost as amusing as it is telling. Please keep running scared, it's fun to watch

You don't understand much of anything do you?
But specifically you don't understand the concept of someone demanding someone else to prove a negative - and ESPECIALLY when the negative being proffered is a non-factual assertion.
First - you make a rational assertion, then it may get some respectful response.
OR - you show that the erroneous assertion you are making deserves some respect.
Otherwise, nobody is going to chase your wild geese.
eta - but I will make one response to your silly assertion.
Nothing in life is equal - equality is an ideal and is good only when talking about human rights.
Equality is silly when talking about results or status = financial, education, quality of life, or number of grandchildren.
That is my rebut of your nonsensical assertion. It deserves nothing further until you substantiate your assertion.

The national debt doubled under Bush. The GOP doesn't know shite about controlling the debt.

All your post is is bull shite. Straight up. Arguing with me isn't going to change things.
Obama says Hi from the Oval Office.

And all of your arguing won't change the fact that you are a member of the have-nots. Tax us all you want, in the end we will figure out a way to be the "haves" and you are destined to perpetually be a "have not". You can gloat about obama...but we will gloat about life.

So wait... now you are changing which of your hair-brained notions I should explain before you touch a topic that's completely different?
Keep running and dodging, little girl. Keep running and dodging.

And Obama has spent more deficit bucks than Bush in only half the time. By your logic (again), this means the Dems know only half as much shite about controlling the debt than the GOP.

I care about smart,responsible government. The GOP cares none about that. It's all about "tax cuts".
Republicans are going out of style, holmes.

Ok. You feel better now? You are still a have not. I guess that isn't going out of style, holmes. Enjoy being poor and gloating about elections. I'd rather be rich and laugh at you.

Because tax hikes in a down economy and in the face of runaway spending is "smart, responsible government"? Nice self-pwnage
