re: #381 Varek Raith

Romney has a lower tax rate than I do.

And yet, he says this:

Romney Claims He’s ‘Not Worried About The Rich,’ But Wants To Cut Their Taxes By One-Third

ROMNEY: I would like 25 percent, but right now it’s at 35, so people better pay what is legally required. But ultimately let’s get it down to as low as we possibly can, if it’s 20, if it’s 25, but paying more than 25 percent, I think, is taking too much out of our pockets.

BAIER: So the highest you had was 35?

ROMNEY: Well, that’s what the law is right now, but 25 is where I would like to see us go.

By his own math, he’d have a 10% tax hike.
