well, no, and the tax tables illustrate the difference.

mccain is likely to support tax breaks for corporations (without carrots such as tax credits for creating new jobs) whereas obama is unlikely.

pure conjecture. obama propsoes a bevy of tax credits to corporations who hire american workers, develop clean technology, and invest domestically.

obama gives credits (means that he just takes tax money and distributes it as welfare through the IRS) to those who pay no taxes.

no, you are wrong. these workers (they must work to get the credits) do pay taxes.

but, for the average person who does work, the two tax codes are pretty darn similar.

wow, to call greater than double the tax cut for most americans under the obama plan to the half the tax cut mccain proposes for the majority of american workers as "similar" is a joke.
but the joke is not funny to the majority of americans who are paying too much of the tax bill and want tax relief.
looks to me like they re likely to get it, too..
