We need to lower tax rates for everybody, starting with the top corporate tax rate. We need to simplify the tax code. The ultimate answer, in my opinion, is the fair tax, which is a fair tax for everybody, because as long as we still have this messed-up tax code, the politicians are going to use it to reward winners and losers. ↗

What Governor Romney is proposing is an across-the-board cut in marginal tax rates for households, every household in America by 20 percent. And we'll have to broaden the base to pay for that. Also, a very deep cut in the corporate rate. ↗

Marginal tax rates are the lowest they've been in generations, and all we can talk about is tax cuts. ↗

I think we need to have competitive tax rates in order to create jobs in this country. And I think it should be fair. ↗
