New You don't understand.
The same reason Ben's posting on this subject isn't relevent.

This isn't about facts or applicability of anything else.

This is about marketing a tax reduction for the rich to the populace as a whole.

This is about hoping that the people who read it will NOT understand the tax system nor their place in it nor the reasons behind cutting (certain) taxes while increasing the cost of government.
