WASHINGTON (AP) A new independent study says Republican Mitt Romney's tax plan would increase taxes on low-income families while cutting taxes for the middle-class and the rich.
The study by the Tax Policy Center says, on average, households making less than $20,000 would see their taxes increase by more than 60 percent by letting tax cuts enacted under President Barack Obama expire. Those tax cuts target low-income families.
The study by the independent research group says people making more than $1 million would get tax cuts averaging 15 percent.
Apparently Romney supports a reverse Robin Hood economic policy. Increases taxes on the poor, so the rich can get more tax breaks.
Oh yeah, and the plan also adds $600 billion to the deficit. Clearly the GOP is not the party of the rich and are fiscal conservatives.
