An Opinion On “Bernanke Challenged on Rates’ Role in Bust”

Steve, check the other posts in this thread and you will see the majority state that low rates were not the culprit of the Great Recession.

Analysis On “Household Income Falls, Poverty Rate Rises”

Consider the 2 income tax estimator family. If the second income is taxed heavily, which it often is at the highest rates of the combined income, then the benefit of extra income can easily be consumed by taxes and child care expenses, just to name a couple biggies.

Criticism On “GOP Looks for a Winner in Midwest Swing States”

Good point. The real problem is that the rep debate is moving farther and farther to the right. It has to. Rep candidates are not going to get the nomination on centrist positions (no Reagan's big tent in tax calculator 2012). BUT this is alienating more and more of the un-decided and independents.

An Opinion On “Joseph Rago: Health Care’s Coming Price Revolution”

Initially I thought you were self employed tax calculator employed and would have total control over whether you have insurance or not and however you wanted to handle it.

My View On “Romney Paid $3 Million Tax Bill in 2010″

No one has ever, ever argued that the rich don't pay a lot in taxes. Of course they pay more. They earn more. Taxes, however, hurt a lot more at lower levels of income tax brackets than they do at higher levels.

My Take On “As Talks Stall, New Debt Plan Offered”

Now Obama is threatening my Social Security check. So be it. It would be a con above just about anything else I've heard of in the past sixty years of adult life.

My View On “Rove: Boehner’s Surprising Success”

Granted, it could be worse. Pelosi could still be Speaker. But this sounds to me like one big government Republican slapping another on the back.

I assume that 47% not paying tax deductions 2012es are those who file but arrange their lives arround these myriads of tax deductions so that they come out paying nothing.
