From NBC/NJ's Matthew BergerESTERO, Fla.&amp;nbsp;-- Giuliani is taking his tax policy to Congress, with the help of some supporters and other friends on Capitol Hill.
Rep. David Dreier and Sen. Kit Bond, along with a group of other lawmakers, will introduce</description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>CommunityServer 2.0 (Build: 60608.1)</generator><item><title>Giuliani takes tax policy to Capitol Hill</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2008/01/23/602739.aspx#602780</link><pubDate>Wed, 23 Jan 2008 22:11:28 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:602780</guid><dc:creator>Kevin, SF, CA</dc:creator><description>I see - so instead of the normal bracketing that we do, would this bracket system mean a guy making 39K brings home way more than someone making 41K?</description></item><item><title>Giuliani takes tax policy to Capitol Hill</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2008/01/23/602739.aspx#602842</link><pubDate>Wed, 23 Jan 2008 22:27:54 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:602842</guid><dc:creator>Mel, La Crosse, Wisconsin</dc:creator><description>OK. Tax simplification. &amp;nbsp;Lower marginal rates. &amp;nbsp;We all applaude the effort. &amp;nbsp;But what about the projected 10-year, $6 trillion loss to the Treasury, just at the time I'll be retiring? &amp;nbsp;Don't we need to project more revenue than less. &amp;nbsp;Most who have reviewed this Plan believe that this lost revenue will not be made-up by increased economic activity. &amp;nbsp;Moreover, the Plan envisions a 3%-5% reduction in federal spending - ala Reaganomics. If Reagan couldn't get Congress to cut spending along with cutting taxes, I doubt Mr. Guliani could do any better. &amp;nbsp;This year will be tough-enough for Republicans. &amp;nbsp;Why make it worse by promoting an unrealistically optimistic tax plan? &amp;nbsp;Oh, and I could actually support Rudy Guliani for President. </description></item><item><title>Giuliani takes tax policy to Capitol Hill</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2008/01/23/602739.aspx#602853</link><pubDate>Wed, 23 Jan 2008 22:30:14 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:602853</guid><dc:creator>Vic Bailey, Auburn, Ga.</dc:creator><description>Giuliani, is all washed up and out of his mind, he wants to take more money from the people that already are in a 50/50 tax bracket because of inflation, and government spending.
