The Democratic Party believes in tax cuts for the middle class. They believe it would result in more money for the working class, and help families support their children and pay for college. It helps the middle class by “…putting more money in the pockets of Americans who need it most.” They also believe the wealthiest should pay more taxes because of their higher incomes. Since they have higher incomes, they have more money to pay for the taxes. The Democratic Party believes the wealthiest should “pay their fair share.” The Republican Party believes in a universal tax system where every individual is taxed the same, no matter their economic situation. Republicans believe this will help promote “American competitiveness, and recognize the burdens on families with children.” Republicans believe there should be a fair tax system, where everyone is equal, “… a tax system that is simple, transparent, flatter, and fair.”
