Presidential Debate #1 Thread

[.blank cd]

your argument holds no water because you are holding Romney to a standard that you refuse to hold Obama too. You also realize that capital gains tax is not congruent to Income tax.

To be fair, Obama, and multiple other millionaires, has said multiple times that he himself doesn't need tax breaks and and that tax increases wouldn't hurt people like him

Did Obama take a standard deduction or did he itemize his last tax return? He does the same thing as everyone else, pays as little as possible even though he says the increase wouldn't hurt him. Go ahead, lead by example and take the standard deduction and pay more in taxes if you truly feel that's the way to make things more "fair", otherwise you're just blowing smoke up everyones ass just like the next guy.

taht is not the argument though, so lets stick with the original incorrect statement.

Until those laws are passed or changed, the current law is the law of the land. Romney can talk all they want about repealing obamacare, but its the law of the land so sayeth the supreme court.

Tax increases wont hurt in terms of bankrupting them, correct
Tax increases WILL HURT THE MIDDLE CLASS (if they are put on the wealthy) , well i believe that to be true.
