In their report on McCain, Robert Gordon and James Kvaal of The American Prospect suggest : “Over the course of his campaign, McCain has consistently chosen granting tax breaks for industry and wealthy donors over tackling the problem of pet tax benefits. He proposes cutting the corporate tax rate from 35% to 25%, costing $100 billion a year, but fails to eliminate a single corporate tax break. A 25 % rate would be below the average rate of other industrialized countries, and the lowest among G–7 countries by a significant margin.”

I have never heard of this proposal. If it's true, I will switch my vote from abstain to McCain.
And what is this "costing $100 billion a year" deal that liberals always like to use? This money is not the government's money. It's the people's money. What did the government do to deserve this money? It doesn't manufacture anything. What services does it provide? Charge us for those services. But don't declare tax money as if it's somehow a "right" of the government.
