Who is it again who supports the rich?

Mr. Minnerick thinks the GOP supports the rich. When almost half of income tax filers pay no federal income tax, I would call that support for the non-rich.

Also, the Bush tax cuts were due to expire last year but the Obama administration voted to extend them. They are now the Obama tax cuts and why were they extended?

Maybe lower tax rates are a good idea. Here in Illinois the Democratic-controlled government raised our state income tax rate for everyone while giving huge tax breaks to big corporations. Who is supporting the wealthy now?
