Tax cuts

1)The government is trying to get all they can out of everyone with out taking everything. When the government does this they can not tax the lower class because they would take everything they have. So they can tax the rich more. On paper it looks like the rich gets better tax cuts but they don't. In the end the rich still have to pay more in tax because they make more money.

2)No I do not think the tax system is this simple because the government has professionals that come out and look over your house and belongings to see what kind of things you have. Also they have to know how much money you make. If you have a brand new vehicle and a new house they are going to tax you more for it than if you just have an old house and vehicle.
"My tax cut plan is not just about productivity, it is about people. Economics is more than narrow interests or organized envy. A tax plan must apply market principles to the public interest. And my plan sets out to make life better for average men, women and children."
— President George W. Bush. In this statement Bush is saying that the tax system isn't as simple as most people think.

Bush, George. "Increasing Tax Fairness."

3)Mr. Kamerschen is a republican. He says in the article about the smaller people whining about not getting enough money back. But the rich people are still paying their fair share it just doesn't sound like it. He is also a republican because he is saying without the upper class the middle and lower class will not be able to give the government the money they need to run the government.
