Nanny State

wow... did ya get that line from moveon.crap?

No. If you're in the top bracket, your taxes will be higher, so if each brackets taxes were reduced proportionally, the tax deduction in the 35% bracket may very well be 1%. The remark wasn't sarcastic.

But our welfare system is like... what, 70 billion a year? Not trivial, but still, to guarantee people don't starve, 1% of your budget seems like a reasonable amount to give, and not much compared to our other programs.
