hughley's new book about politics is causing quite a stir. he joins me live tonight.nor mitt romney's tax plan went to that strange foreign land called independent analysis and came back looking like a loser. unfortunately for mr. romney, the truth is out. his tax plan would slash taxes for the very rich and raise taxes on the poor and middle class. the independent study by the tax policy center bent over backwards to view romney's plan in a favorable light, but concluded that the net effect of romney's plan would be this. millionaires would get an $87,000 tax cut, but 95% of americans would suffer a $500 tax increase on average. it could be worse for families. the study shows that making governor romney's tax plan revenue neutral would require eliminating tax preferences for middle and lower income families, reducing their after tax income by an average of $2,000.
