Hume: Not a Good Selling Point If Top 10% Benefit the Most from Tax Cuts

‘It figures that when taxes are cut, they will benefit the most, because they pay the most’

RUSH EXCERPT:
HUME: "Everybody has taxes they would like to see cut. I think the constituency for it is still there. The constituency for the kind of tax cuts the president is selling, or you are reducing the rates, where you can point to people and say look at this guy, he’s got — he’s going to get millions and benefits. That’s because he pay so much. We live in a country, after all, or 10% of the population, the richer 10%, pay about 70% of the taxes. It figures that when taxes are cut, they will benefit the most, because they pay the most. That is not a particularly good selling point to an ordinary taxpayer."
