Romney only pays at a 15% tax rate...wtf

[g5jamz]

He's basically saying the majority of his income is taxed at the capital gains rate...where his money is.

Do you know what Romney wants as the top marginal rate?

capital gains rates, at least long term capital gains rates, ought to be low IMO... reinvestment into society needs to be encouraged.

I think that's pretty clear. My favorite part was when he acted like $350k for speaking engagement fees a year wasn't a lot of money. I get it's not a lot of money to him however you can't come across much more disconnected then he does.

Mitt wants to lock Americans up as he sees fit and for as long as he wants so he lost my vote , he pretty much said we should just trust him.

What rate did he pay while earning those millions?

except most of it hasn't been getting reinvested lately. Rich people are holding onto their money.

And why shouldn't they...

it's not like this government has been exactly pro-business.

ugh

I love watching the middle class fight to protect some rich guys tax % while they sit around and pay a higher %.

I'd love to be paying just 15% hell I'm paying close to that just in Self Employment Tax without even including State and Fed.
