Mitt Romney's income tax rate would be
less than 1% under the Romney-Ryan budget.
TPC & Brookings:
Romney's tax plan would raise taxes on 95% of Americans, including the entire middle class, making the average middle class family pay $2,000 more -- while giving a millionaire another tax cut of nearly $100,000 on top of the Bush tax cuts (separately
worth about $150,000).
TPC,
CAP: Romney's plan would raise taxes on 18 million families to help pay for massive tax cuts for himself, including $4.5 million in income taxes and $112 million in estate taxes.
NEC: As a House Republican, Congressman Ryan pushed to raise taxes on 25 million working families by an average of $1,000 apiece, while giving a tax cut of $160,000 to those making over a million.
NEC: In fact, as a Republican in Congress, he's threatening to raise taxes on 98% of Americans, or almost 120 million working families, by an average of $1,600 unless the richest 2% get $1 trillion more in tax cuts.
JEC: The Romney-Ryan budget would give a household making more than a million dollars a tax cut of almost $300,000, but raise taxes for a typical middle class family by $1,400.
Contrary to claims of Congressman Ryan being a deficit hawk, he
voted for the Bush policies driving today's deficits -- including the wasteful Bush tax cuts for the richest 2%. (In contrast, the Congressional Progressive Caucus's
People's Budget would eliminate the deficit and balance the budget within ten years.)
SENIORS
The Romney-Ryan
budget would end the Medicare guarantee of coverage and replace it with privatized vouchers or coupons -- increasing out-of-pocket costs and pushing many
seniors into the poorhouse. And despite GOP claims, their plan would force current seniors to pay more now.
The Romney-Ryan budget creates a fast track to
cut Social Security, as well as the Social Security Administration.
Congressman Ryan authored a plan to privatize Social Security and turn it over to Wall Street, which would have required $2.4 trillion in additional costs in just the first 10 years.
HOME FRONT FUNDING
The Romney-Ryan budget would cost us up to
4 million jobs or more in the next two years alone.
The Romney-Ryan budget would deeply cut our investments in our home front funding, including
education by 20%, and let the
child tax credit expire, pushing many
children back into poverty.
In fact, the Romney-Ryan budget puts America on the Path To Poverty -- throwing vulnerable kids off Medicaid, laying off teachers, and eventually
ending all federal law enforcement, air traffic safety, and protection of our food and water.
