Romney's plan

The Tax Policy Center analyzed Romney's $5 trillion tax cut proposal and found it would mean huge tax reductions for the wealthy and an increase in taxes for about 95% of the rest of us.  This is why people like the Koch Brothers are pouring so much money into Romney's campaign.  Those contributions have little to do with ideology or or philosophy and much to do with getting more--and more.

At a demonstration a few weeks ago, I was asked if I were a Communist.  I'm not, but I understand that politics is often a reflection of economics.  Usually other factors are also important, but in this election, it is so clear that Romney is the candidate of the rich.  A lot of poor people will vote for him, of course.  Marx would have called that "false consciousness."  They are distracted with lies about Obama's birthplace or about guns or about the health care bill.  They don't know their own self-interest.  I can tell you the Koch Brothers do know their self-interest.  And Mitt Romney is their lapdog.
