rick if that washington post chart is right ( the post leans left ) then its saying that the part of tax payers who make up to 37595 will get a small tax cut under mccain, depending on how many children they have they dont really have a tax burden now.under obama the one who make less than 18981 will get back 567 bucks and they dont have a tax burden any way its giving them money they did not earn.
as for the arguments that the rich dont need tax cuts, what you need to realize is that over a certain income they loose lots of tax breaks that others get, things like deductions for improving the energy efficiency of their houses
i used to know a very rich man who ran a mortgage broker who made almost a mil between him and his wife, they paid almost 70 % of their income in taxes. because they could not deduct things like electric bills their office paid, improvements made to their their rental houses etc. imagine paying 70 cents of every dollar you made in taxes. hell i work for 3 months a year for free, just to cover my tax burden
