Romney destoys Romney's tax plan logic

Last night on Hannity Romney was trying to repair the 47% comment he said that the "wealthy had done fine under Obama" and that the gap had grown larger. All true.

But that assertion destroys the absurd notion that a tax reduction on the rich will give them more money for investments and spur job growth.

If that were true then the substantial increase in their wealth would have already created waves of new jobs.
