Reply #12: Question [View All]

I know I have a Kerry avatar, but this is a legitimate question I have about Dean's tax plan. I have seen many times how the tax cut is no where near enough to cover increased property taxes, increased tuition, health care, etc. I completely agree expenses have increased more than the amount of the tax cut. My question is how will the elimination of the cut help the middle class now? If the tax is repealed, property taxes, tuition, etc. will not be reduced, so wouldn't the average family have the same bills, but even less money to be able to pay them?

We can't unring the bell and put expenses back where they were prior to the ill-conceived tax cut, but don't we have a responsibility not to make it even harder on the middle class?
