Reply #47: How's that relevant? The point is Clark said that Edwards's plan wasn't [View All]

[AP]

progressive while failing to mention that it would have taxed him more on income that he earned over 300K from a no-risk business deal.

It was a wilful misrepresentation of Edward's plan designed to hit Edwards where he was strongest.

Also, notice that Clark's first-52K tax free plan was a benefit EVERYONE rcv'd. Even Clark would have rcvd it.

Say Clark got 90% of his income from selling stocks and only made 100k in earned income. Clark would have just given himself a HUGE tax cut. How's that progressive?

Clark's tax plan may have sounded progressive to people making less than 52K, but I'm not sure it was all that progressive.
