Tax policy

BARACK OBAMA

Barack Obama

Mitt Romney

President Obama doesn’t want to raise taxes on the

middle class, but would raise taxes on the wealthy.

He would seek to extend the Bush-era tax cuts for those earning less than $200,000 individually and $250,000 if married.

Mitt Romney disagreed with Obama

Romney wants to extend the cuts for all income levels, including those above $250,000.

Obama wants to reform the corporate tax code. This reform

would slash the corporate tax rate to

28%.

Payroll tax extension

Mitt Romney wants to cut taxes, with a move that would reduce the current top rate paid on income from 35% to 28%, with similar reductions across all tax brackets.

Romney says the tax cuts will spur economic growth, and that will fill in some of the revenue

gap.

Both candidates agree in the creation of more employments, and in helping the new businessmen in the creation of small companies, since they are the engine of the economy.
