i agree come in when area, he talks about lowering the rates but did not specify the lo opholes. having gone out on a limb on everything else, you are asking the republicans to commit political suicide when the democrats have offered nothing on anything. >> he is much more specific on entitlements than the democrats. if enacted, it would have a shot at controlling medicare cuts. the democrats are shamefully non-specific. but both sides are not willing to tell the voters about the problem. >> the people who pay the most are between $60,000 and $120,000. they get about 30% in income, taxes across the board. it goes down for people who make more than that. this proposed budget would give it all to unearned income. celebrate people would be paying more and more -- salaried people would be paying more and more. >> tough sell to the middle class. >> you are talking about a cut in tax rates, which democrats always think is equivalent to overall taxes. we saw it in simpson-bowles. seven out of every $10 of loopholes is paid by the upper quintile. >> what makes you think that will happen?
