from BigTree Oops! Romney Ditches 'Six Studies' -- His NEW Study Repeals Almost ALL Middle Class Tax Breaks!

http://www.democraticunderground.com/10021581146

An excerpt from the article link in that post:

Romney’s claims about job creation under his tax plan are almost entirely fabricated. An economic adviser for both the Reagan and George H.W. Bush administrations said this week that Romney’s tax plan won’t create jobs.


And if you follow the link "create jobs" in the text, there are interesting conclusions from a Reagan senior economic adviser with data on GDP and jobs. That article concludes:

The problem with Romney’s solution to the jobs crisis is that it’s a giant non sequitur. Cleaning up the tax code and making it more efficient is certainly a worthwhile goal. But it has nothing to do with the country’s current problem, which is a short-term economic collapse that has driven up unemployment.


Obama/Biden 2012 for these reasons and so many more.
