The only thing this map fails to indicate is how much further down the income of the current middle class will go under a plan which give more tax breaks to the wealthy.

Interesting how the right off the cliff nuts discard facts; sort of like ignoring the elephant in the room.

I am currently working on a book and the human penchant to ignore facts not aligning with their preconceptions.

I loved this about your article, not only was it true but they used all data from both sides : The non-partisan group used policies from the candidates' websites, data from the Census Bureau and the IRS, and tax theories from the Tax Foundation to create the interactive. Just maybe people are waking up, but if they elect Romney and his Crony Capitalism and all the wealthy, then we are headed to the dustbin of history. Kentay
