how about the level we had under Clinton where the wealthy did just great.
The middle class also paid a higher rate during the Clinton years...that okay with you too?
All this talk about taxes is a red herring. We could not possibly collect enough in taxes to begin to cover THIS YEAR'S DEFICIT, much less the crippling debt we've accumulated and continue to accumulate. It's a spending problem!
Besides, if you really want job creation, what makes you think higher taxes on job creators is going to help? We already have tons of capital on the sidelines because of debt, burdensome regulations and the omnipresent specter of higher taxes. Nobody is investing in expansion and you think higher taxes will help that? That is insane. All this tax the rich talk is a distraction, a hope that voters will ignore the debt and shambles the economy is in as the take sides in class warfare. It's really pathetic that you and the others with their heads in the sand can't see that.
And, all the while, proposing 450billion more in spending while he tells us to pound sand.
