On the NBC network news tonight, discussing Romney’s 1040, the talking head made a matter-of-fact reference to “a tax code that favors the rich.”
Sure.
Taxpayer “A” pays $2,000 in income tax.
Taxpayer “B” pays $20,000,000 in income tax.
And the conclusion is that the tax code favors taxpayer “B”.
Uh-huh.
And if inmate “A” is sentenced to 2 years and inmate “B” gets life in prison, I guess the penal code favors inmate “B”.
