Tax Plans - McBush Vs. Obama
Let's see who I'M voting for:
The Tax Policy Center said McCain's plan would provide effective tax cuts for Americans across the income spectrum, with the largest percentage increase in after-tax income going to the wealthiest 0.1 percent of Americans.Folks, this is an independent study, not something commissioned by the Democrats or the Republicans.
This group, numbering around 150,000, would see their after-tax income rise by an average of 11.6 percent, or $678,500, in 2012 as compared with current law that sees tax cuts expiring at the end of 2010.
The lowest income 20 percent of taxpayers would see an increase in after-tax income of 0.9 percent, or $101.
Obama's plan takes somewhat the opposite tack, providing greater percentage tax benefits for lower income groups while the wealthiest would see tax hikes.
The analysis showed that the lowest-income 20 percent of taxpayers would see after-tax income increase by 6.2 percent, or $698 increase, compared with current law, while the top 0.1 percent would see their after-tax incomes decline by 5.1 percent, or $301,400.
